I’ll most likely being going back to work in a few weeks. The closer it gets the sadder I get thinking of leaving my baby at a day care 😢

Working moms out there, how do I do it? How do I get past the feeling I’m a horrible mom because I have to work?

Oh hun, you are most certainly not a horrible mom for having to go to work! You’re doing what you need to do for your family, and that’s very admirable in my opinion 💜

It is hard to leave them at daycare, and it’s okay to cry when you do. You will cherish the time you do have together. We had a half hour ride home from daycare, so I would sing songs to him (like itsy bitsy spider) and talk to him. I also visited him at daycare over my lunch hour, which really helped. I kept a lot of pictures of him in my office, too.

Keep your chin up momma, you’ve got this! Feel free to message me if you have questions or need a friendly listening ear 💜💜

Unfortunately it’s a necessary evil for many. Not everyone has the ability to be a sahm. I went through this when i had to return after maternity leave...

It’s not easy at first but it gets better with time. You are in no way a horrible mom! You’re simply doing what needs to be done for your family which makes you a great mom.

What age were your babies when going to day care?

I went back to work when she was 3 months. We chose a home day care for many reasons. We only needed part time (3 days/week) and I wanted a smaller setting with a more personal experience.

@scruffy.nerf.herder, @d-lane-knee11, it’s so good to know that I’m not the only one to feel like this and not the only one that’s gotta do it.

You are definitely not alone! I’m sure we’ve all felt this way when faced with the reality that we have to go to work and leave our precious child(ren) in someone else’s care.

It’s normal to feel the way you do! It’s hard to leave our babies. I cried the first few days. It does get easier though!
