For those who know me, it should be of no surprise that I’ve already had a meltdown about going back to work. In fact, I shed a few tears while writing this. To say I am sad is an understatement.
I am scared to miss Sebastian’s firsts. His first crawl, word, steps.
I am worried he won’t love me as much. I don’t want him to feel less loved because I am around less.
I am anxious to spend most of our days apart. I wish I could spend more than just a few hours together during the week. My 1.5 hour commute doesn’t help much.
I am sad that I’ll miss his good morning smiles and happy moods. I’ll most likely be leaving the house while he’s still fast asleep.
I do hope he knows I am doing this for him. To help our little family. I hope he grows up to be proud of the mom I am and try to be. Moms who’ve gone back to work after having a baby–PLEASE share your tips! Much thanks in advance.
XOXO
You are an awesome mama and he is very lucky!
