My maternity leave ends tomorrow & I go back to work, I must have cried about a million times over it even though I’m going to be doing a job I love and my baby is going to be looked after by family members, I feel so guilty that I can’t spend all day every day with her anymore. Has anyone else felt like this and does it get any easier 🥲

I felt exactly like this but my LG goes to nursery 2 days a week. I promise it gets easier! I hope your first day was ok x

I go back in 3 weeks and I feel the same

Been back at work full time for 3 months now, and I promise it gets easier. Just be kind to yourself. I find it really difficult in the early afternoon hormonally and I start to get a bit panicked wanting to get home to her.
