Pictures! And calls thru the day! They help so much! I got lucky with the job I got and take 1.5 HR lunch to come home and visit for a bit

i hear you. it sucks. i wish my husband had a better job so i didnt have to work so much :(

@hailholla1412, my daughter has insurance through the state, thankfully. But that is one thing I will have when/if I start this job. And it'll be nice. And I keep trying to remind myself it's just for now, but it's killing me.

@babybonbon, I'm not so much worries about myself being tired as I am about my LO. She's never been away from me but for a few hours. All of a sudden it will be for 10 hours, 5 days a week? I know it's best for us, but my heart is breaking.

aww im not a mommy quite yet but i will have to go back to work after 6 weeks because i have benefits at my job and my hubby doesnt so i have to work full time. i know im gonna feel so guilty and sad handing her over to someone else at a month and a half but i just got to keep telling myself it is for her future and what is best for her. its a sacrifice i have to make in order to know she has the insurance she needs for her doc visits. if i didnt work and we didnt have insurance id feel even more guilty because im not doing every thing i could. thinking about that and praying a lot knowing God is in control of our lives is what helps me get through

I work 11-12 hours a day. I've been doing it for a while but when I take breaks, especially during the beginning I would nap for 30 min and that would help a lot.
