Not ready to go back

Any tips for a first time mom going back to work? I’ve gotten to spend five months with my baby girl which I am so thankful for, but the time went by so fast and I can’t believe I’m going back already. My baby will be with my mom all day which I’m really grateful for, but I just wish I had more time. It’s funny because I feel like in the beginning I missed work and now I’m dreading going back.

I know that will be a hard transition for you but I know it eases your mind knowing your mom is able to keep your baby!

The transition was definitely difficult for me. I am 2 weeks back to work and slowly feel like I am back in the swing of things. I miss my baby so much even though she is with her dad all day. What has helped me is periodically getting updates and pictures from my husband. It truly makes me smile and makes the day a bit easier.

I am in the same boat. I am not ready to go back to work.
