This is exactly what I needed to see ❤️thank you for this ❤️I go back to work in 2 and a half weeks and baby girl will be going to daycare 😭 I know it’s going to be harder on me than her but it’s comforting knowing I’m not in it alone. Everyone around me has parents/grandparents watching their kiddos and I feel so alone in sending my LO to daycare but it’s what we have to do.

I needed this! Thank you! Social media has made me feel like I am betraying my baby for having to go back to work and your tiktok gives me some peace know I am not the only one. Finding the positives in things is the best way to go about it!🫶🏻🫶🏻

Went back to work two weeks ago when she was 6 weeks old. What I’m struggling the most with is she’s going to hit milestones and I won’t be there to see them all. My 1st born got a 24/7 mom, I’m so upset I’m not able to do the same for her.

I have three weeks left of my 26 week maternity leave. I know it’s more than most but it doesn’t feel long enough. I needed to see this - thank you!

Thanks for sharing this- makes me feel a lot better as my 3 month old starts daycare in early August. I never even considered not going back to work but reality hit hard and the thought of dropping my baby off with someone else all day hurts my heart. I’m going to try it but I am truly unwell over it!

Thank you for this! I'm due early January with our first. 🩷 I get 3 months of mat leave and then it's back to work 😩 I'm already dreading it and feeling so incredibly guilty. Not to mention the SAHM's that truly act like I'm signing my 3 month up for war when they find out I'll have to put her in daycare. So again, thank you for this! Truly.

Oh boy did I need this! I still have a month and a half off with my girl. But I’m in tears reading this. Leaving her to go back to work sounds like the worst thing I can think of. But I know it’s the right thing to do for her and myself. I just keep telling myself I am a good mom.

Going back in 11 days and my heart has been aching thinking about it even though I know he’s going to an amazing daycare and will be in great hands. Thank you so much for this! 🥲🫶🏼

Wow I really needed to see this. Today was my first day back to work after 4 months with my little boy. I have sobbed multiple times over the past several weeks about it. But today happened and it was ok…. seeing him smile when I got home made me melt. Its all for him ❤️

Today was my first day back and I have cried all this past week and all morning. It got better once I got to work and was able to see clients, talking about my baby amazing. I missed her more than I ever could imagine though.
