Emotional wreck

I have been so emotional today, I got my confirmation of my start date back at work on the 1st of march so got all my uniforms washed and ironed and my son turns one a week today!! Feel so emotional as this time last year I was getting ready to welcome him into the world and now I am getting ready to go back to work and from him going to nursery!! Anyone else really emotional when it came to going back to work?

Me too. My baby’s birthday is a week from today and also thinking about uniforms etc. as start back in a few weeks. I am so emotional and nostalgic thinking about last year. I keep crying :/ I’ve heard it gets easier but this transition period is so hard

@Megan hoping it dose get easier!! It’s just crazy how fast this year has gone in and to think our babys weren’t even born yet this time last year and now we are getting ready for there 1st birthday x

Yep I go back 3rd March after being off since December 2022 (had 2 babies back to back 😂) & I am dreading it xx

You're not alone. My LB was born Feb 11th last year and I returned to work in January, the first week I cried everyday and found it very difficult because I felt like I was abandoning him. But now I see it as... I'm going to work so I can provide him with a comfy home, and we can do more things together because I have a bit more finances coming in. Yes I miss him like crazy but he is my driving force, I know that at the end of the work days I get to have a big cuddle and kiss. It's something I look forward too through a tough shift. It keeps me going. If that makes sense. Even though someday it's like he didn't even realise I was gone haha. Going to work, not going to work, do what is best for you and your family. You got this!
