Returning to work after Mat leave…
Had my first day back to work as a teacher yesterday. My baby is just over 9 months. My partner and family all work shifts that change daily or weekly so my little one is in nursery 4 days a week and I get one day off with her.
I know it’s only been one day but I’m feeling incredibly overwhelmed. I missed my baby and felt like an awful mum for not being with her. Equally I don’t know how I will be a very good teacher anymore because all I care about is going home to my baby.
I guess I just want know others experiences so I know I won’t feel this rubbish about it forever 😢

Baby moon but partner didnt plan anything
All pregnancy my partner knows how much a bavy moon meant to me, for us to have quality time before baby comes. Even earlier in the year he had an accident which meant we can’t leave the country fine but we had been speaking the past couple months at least about doing something like even a staycation locally away. I said that it would be nice if he planned it he said yeah he will. He told me two weeks ago which weekend he would be free ( weekend just gone)
Weekend came I wanted to see if he would bring it up and nothing at all we didnt go anywhere or do anything. He even went out with his friends Sunday evening. I stayed quiet just see will bring up anything in the slightest but no, So I brought it up lastnight he said to me “ oh its Tuesday now ur why ru only bringing it up now you didn’t mention anything all weekend yourself, and that I could have said something but I said “ You were the one planning it, it’s your job to tell me “ Then he says “ Oh, to do it now ( Im 39 + 4) doesn’t make sense your water might break , I then said “ Well Obviously now wont make sense but there was no consideration of saying anything or plans are off, it was your plan you chose this weekend”
he said he didnt really want to do it but was gonna do it for me he said ‘ i heard you, and cool’ i was thinking wow is that all? This is really how my feelings this was the one thing I was looking forward to pregnancy.
I asked him is that all you have to say ‘ cool’ and he looked me dead in the eye and said yeah. Something about that look and response just cut me deep.
The argument erupted he got pissed of that i brought it up when he was eating his dinner - but it was just a normal conversation if he didnt want to have it he could have said can i finish my food first.
He said im selfish and childish for bringing up ‘ nonsense’ now when hes eating and now he doesn’t wanna eat etc. conversation basically ended.
Im so over him and fake promises, isnt this wrong of him , advice please 😭

Wanting to start working out but has a 4 month old!
Does anyone work out and if so how do you do it with a baby? Do you take them with you or have someone watch them?

Friends!? 😊💕
Sometimes I feel like I won’t ever have that close bond with a friend or best friend again. I’m going to continue to try though. Would anyone like to message and possibly become friends lol😊😊?
