I went back to work yesterday...
After being off for 11 weeks. It was so hard to leave DS, I cried yesterday and today in the car and he was only with my grandmother yesterday and DH today. He goes to daycare starting next week. I know everyone says it gets easier but my heart is breaking with guilt. I have a meeting tonight so by the time I get home he'll be asleep.
Thanks for listening, I know alot of you truly understand.

Re: I went back to work yesterday...
Oh boy!!!! I know that it's hard, I hug my little angel so hard every time I leave him and pick him up. I thin about him all day but the interaction with other kids is so beneficial. Someone had a really good post about the positives of day care - I think yesterday.... You should try and look for it - there are reeeeaaaalllllyyyy good points.

I've been there too and everyone is right, it does get easier. In fact it's nice to get out and join the adult world. It is tough to juggle everything, but how proud you should be of yourself! Hope you're feeling better soon!

It does get better. Remember it is not the quantity of time, but the quality of time spent with your DC.

Re: I went back to work yesterday...
I know how horrible it feels. Please FM me if you need to just vent about it. I went back at 8 weeks, then had the summer off (i am a teacher) and went back in September after a great summer home with my little girl and it is always a hard thing to do -- but you guys will get through it and make the most of your evenings and weekends together!!

Re: I went back to work yesterday...
Thanks for the confidence boost. I thought today was going to be easier and then just as I was leaving DS laughed for the first time! I wanted to call in sick but I didn't. My solace is that people are still coming into my office asking to see pictures so I get to show off my little one.
to all you working moms!!
