I have to make the decision of whether to return to work by tomorrow. I will have to go back full time Mon-Fri 9-5.30 (possibly starting back next month)....I say its a decision but infact I don't have any choice, If I don't go back I do not have any money to live... at the moment we literally can't afford to go food shopping. I'm a qualified Accountant and therefore can earn a reasonable salary by returning to work (unfortunately I'm in a situation where I am the higher earner out of my partner and I).
I have worked really hard before becoming a mum with my career and I enjoy what I do but now I face missing my little boy growing up. I am literally crying myself to sleep every night knowing I can't be here for him I feel like a terrible mummy...
I'm exclusively breastfeeding which makes it even harder as I won't have that closeness I have now with my lo, I love breastfeeding. I want to continue to give him breast milk but I'm not sure whether I will be able to keep up my milk supply by pumping?? If anyone has any experience with this I would be really grateful to hear how you got on. Is it even possible?
This is literally breaking my heart to know I'm such an awful mummy and I know people will think really badly of me for returning to work so early Not sure if anyone will have any experience or returning to work this early (or certainly not any positive experience of it??)
