Dreading going back to work
Anyone else dreading going back to work? My little girl is 8 weeks old today and I’m dreading leaving her. I don’t know how I’m going to be working full time as a deputy head and looking after her.

@Emma Shep I’m getting there. The lack of sleep is a killer and I’m not used to not working on a night. I just feel like I’m behind. I cried the first week and I feel stressed with workload as a mam, but I survived. It makes half term so much more precious. Xx
Definitely! The first term back is always the hardest. I cried every weekend (fatigue) but began finding my groove by the second term back. Before that it was just a round of “wake up, get to school, teach, pick up, eat, (try to) sleep, repeat”.
Jessica, how’s it been going?
