Work
I’ve gone back to work and feel so behind. Everyone I started with has been promoted and moved on within the organisation and I’m with a new team and feel so behind. Now if I was to have another child because I do I’ll fall even more behind 😭

Im feeling the same, people I used to manage are now managing me and I'm super happy for them because they deserve it, they are great employees... but I cant help but feel I've been left behind. Ive been back 6 weeks now and I just cannot get used to it. We have started trying for baby no2 so I'm trying to just turn up do my best and not worry about the future because if we are lucky enough to have another I'm going to feel even further behind, but how lucky that I got to grow and nurture my babies 🥰
You’re not behind - you’ve been doing other more important work with your baby! Remember that your career will be long (unfortunately!) and so you’ll have time to get to where you want to be. For now, don’t put too much pressure on yourself. Xx
You're not behind, you're in the same place as when you left.
I do like this take. Growing and caring for babies is amazing
