Hi mamas! I’m going back to work next week after 12 weeks of maternity leave. I’ve loved every second of my time off, spending it with our precious boy. I’m getting nervous about going back to work full time and him starting daycare. There are so many things that I worry about- possible COVID exposure, sickness in general, keeping my supply up, missing my boy, how it will affect our relationship, wondering if he‘ll think I’m abandoning him, not having enough time to spend with him, etc. I worked so hard to get where I’m at in my career, and financially, we have no choice but to go back full time.

I just really need some positive stories right now of how going back to work isn’t the worst thing for the both of us. I know we can make this work and it’ll be okay in the end, just would love to hear success stories to make this week less emotional and more encouraging for me.

Thank you in advance

❤️🥺
