Not really a question, but just looking for any advice/looking to hear that I’m not alone!

My maternity leave is ending in a couple weeks and baby will have to go to daycare a few days a week. I’ve been so stressed about baby going to daycare! I know he’ll be well taken care of… I’m just sad that I don’t get to be the one caring for him anymore. Plus I’ve been anxious about his schedule, how he’ll adjust to daycare, getting used to napping without the swaddle or sleep sack, getting him into a better bedtime and morning routine, etc. Not to mention all the little things like figuring out how to label his clothes and bottles, things like that.

Once I go back to work my husband will end up being the one taking baby to daycare, and he’ll sometimes be putting baby to bed alone while I’m at work. I know my husbands going to do just fine… but for whatever reason that’s stressing me out too. I’m not sure exactly what I’m worried about but I know I’m worried lol. Or maybe I’m just sad that it’s not me getting to do it, or anxious that it’s out of my control? I also don’t think my husband realizes yet how much more he’s going to have to take on when I go back to work.

Anyway. Thanks for listening! Any words of wisdom are appreciated.
