Today is my 1st day back at work

*SIGH*

I even pushed my maternity leave for two more wks and that still wasnt enough. I got into the "no work" mode and of course, LOVED being with my daugter.

Im just happy I have my mom taking care of her while at work.

I just miss her already! Chat Icon

Girl...it does get better!! Especially knowing that your mom is watching her and she is in good hands!

That is what gets me through the day, knowing that my mom is watching DS

Chat Icon I know it's hard, but it does get easier (although I still have my moments of course).

Just remind yourself it's the quality over quantity of time you spend with her, and make sure when you come home at night you set aside time to play with her.

Same here... it was a rough transition for the first few months. The first few days were easiest because your adrenaline is pumping and the newness is exciting, but once all that wears off, and you're still sleep deprived from baby, it gets tough. Really tough. But, hang in there, because the payoff is amazing once you get a routine going and the quality time you spend with baby is just amazing. Chat Icon

For me itdid not get easier but I hope it does for you like it has for many. But what helps is that family watches him. I think that is the only thing that keeps me sane while at work.
