Anxiety going back to work

I’m due to go back to work in May and I’m feeling really anxious about it- I really don’t want to go back at all but I have to- I just worry about how much time I’ll be missing with our little girl - any advice???

I don’t have advice and I am only going back to work in September but I am anxious already😭😭😭

Going back in June/July and feel sick every time I think about my son in nursery even though I know he’ll be fine

I’m exactly the same! I am dreading it

I am going back in may as well but only doing part time till September she be in nursery when she is one years old. Like I go work Monday to Wednesday then Thursday to Sunday with my little girl so I don’t have to miss out a lot all week. Honestly you will be absolutely fine as I have started to give my family to look after her to build up my trust and more time you do that it does help my anxiety. My advice is if something wrong they always ring you to come to your child. I just started to give my family with her for an hour then once I feel comfortable I put extra hour in each time so by time I go back to work I know she will be fine as it won’t cause separation anxiety with her Hope this helps

I went back 3 weeks ago part time and it actually felt quite nice to be me and not just mummy for the day! My boy goes to nursery with my eldest and it’s such a great nursery they welcomed me ringing up through the day to check on him xx

I'm going back in a week. He will be doing 6 hrs Monday, This means I'll get a couple of hrs at home to chill or something. 3 hrs Wednesday and potentially 3 hrs Friday. Tuesday and Thursday 2 hrs with my mum. Think I'd have rather 2 full days ha. I feel so bad to be going back so early as my plan was to have a full year off, he's only 6.5 months. However, I'm skint. I'm trying to tell myself he'll be fine and good for social development and money to do stuff with him
