Sad tonight :-( UPDATE 1ST POST!!!!!!!!

[pilkers]

I'm going back to work in 3 weeks and I have to attend a course tomorrow and Tuesday so tonight I'm writing a checklist for my SIL who is having Evie and I'm packing her a little bag...god I'm dreading it

My SIL will be looking after Evie when I go back to work so it's kind of a trial run for all of us...

I'm sad..I don't wanna leave my baby. Bet I don't sleep tonight

UPDATE
Well this morning was hard leaving her at 8.30am but luckily the rush hour traffic took my mind off it a bit as I spent a good 10 mins ranting at some old guy who was lane hogging

I rang my SIL at 10.30 to make sure she'd settled in OK...she was fine. I thought about her constantly all day but made myself not call again cos I didn't want to make my SIL feel like I was on her case!

I got a couple of photo texts throughout the day which cheered me up. At 4.30 I drove like a maniac (must stop that bit!) to pick her up and she beamed like mad at me then promptly fell asleep in my arms cos her 2 year old and 4 year old cousins had kept her awake most of the day

It wasn't as bad as I thought it was going to be and I was so relieved when I went to collect her that she smiled at me and wanted a big mummy cuddle

 

[Full of hope!]

Awww bless ya I understand how you must feel, i'll be the same when I go back to work in October!

Good luck I hope all goes well You will miss your baby like crazy but just think how excited you will feel to see her when you finish work for the day

Awww hun! I know how you feel

I have to go back on 23rd June and I'm dreading it. It doesn't help that Lola still won't take a bottle either

I'm dreading it too pilkers - I hope it goes okay for you and Evie gets on okay with your SIL. I know I've been so lucky to have a year off but sometimes I don't know if that's made leaving DD worse!

I think I would be happier if she wasn't miles away - I commute quite far to work but DD will still be in my village with a childminder. I can't help wondering how I'll get home quickly if something happens.

If money was a bit easier, I'd definitely be staying at home. I just wish we could get paid to do so.

Let us know how you get on today.

Hiya,

I know how you feel. I went back to work TODAY!! I'm sat at my desk now typing.

It helps that my mum is having Asher this week (mon, tues wed as I'm only doing 3 days a week), so I know he's in good hands. But next week he starts at nursery and I'm going to be a nervous wreck!

I'm so sad that now on mon, tues and wed I'm only going to see him for like, 2 hours a day.
