Anxious about returning to work
I'm sure this is completely natural but I just need to hear it from those of you that have gone back to work - that everything will be alright.
I don't go back for 10 weeks but I'm already really anxious about leaving LO in the nursery for what seems like AGES (8.30 - 5.30) even though it's only twice a week. Her grandma is having her another day but them I'm anxious that she'll get tired as she's 61 and it will be a long day for her.
Also I worry about how I'll get the house work done, food cooked, LO dressed in the morning. It just feels like such a massive step. AND on top of that I'm going back after a year off, will be out of sinc with what's been going on, my job role has actually gotten bigger. I'm just panicking right now.

LO is teething at the moment so not an awful lot of sleeping going on & got SPD from hell.
Walking through the door on that first day was the hardest bit, after that it's not so bad. I will be going on mat leave 1st april again - i'm really hoping a can go part-time next year tho. I don't like the idea of working full time with 2 kids but I may have to as we need a bigger house. As for housework, seeing friends etc... it's all gone out the window for me I feel very 'out of touch'.
All in all I would love to be a SAHM!!!
If your part-time (sounds like you are) then lucky you - you have best of both worlds try not to worry!
Love my LO but I do love working too and it sure helps pay the bills.
