It's getting better

As a first time mom the newborn phase was messy, colic, reflux, mild PPD. I have the opportunity to be a stay-at-home for the first 12months. At first I couldn't wait to get back on by 8 months. But now at 5 months, things are getting better even though there are rough days, I'm not thinking to rush back to work as before. I'm a bit surprised at myself. The other day my manager called to ask when I'd like to come back to work next year and she told me just to enjoy the time from her experience she went after 6 months back to work and she regrets it. So maybe that conversation had some influence too.

Anyone on the same boat?
