How have people found going back to work? I’m due back in August after a year off and feel utterly sick at the thought of it. I did a keep in touch day and just cried.
Luckily work has agreed to 3 days back but even that feels like so much time away from my baby.

I promise it gets easier, with my first I struggled, but it got easier, and I actually started to appreciate to just me again for a little bit! Everybody is different but for me personally, in the end, after the initial sadness that came with it, I found it did me a lot of good. Wishing you luck!
