Ever get a time where you just feel so shit for leaving your kids to go to work 😫
I've been working more to keep Noah in nursery for his 30 hours as he loves it so much and of course more money! but Noah seems to be really suffering 😫 all I get now is "mum all you do is work work work" "mum your not going to work today are you please so no" 😭 today was the worst as he screamed as sobbed so much when I left. I keep telling him it's so I can get him nice things and to keep him going to nursery but of course he doesn't understand.
He's used to me doing just 2 days a week and 4 of the shifts a month he would be at his dad's but now I'm doing close to 5/6 a week sometimes just for the overtime.
Does anyone have any tips to help calm him and not let him worry so much? He thinks I'm not coming back which is the main problem as he's a huge mommy's boy and cries when I go to the toilet without him 🙈.

Yeah I always tell him if I work that means he gets all the nice things. Oh I've tried! If i get off the sofa he will follow me, it's a constant battle to get him to sit in the living room whilst I do the dishes, but he will go to nursery perfectly fine 🤷♀️ but he will say he missed me 🤣 He's perfectly fine when I'm at work it's just the leading up to and me going that's the problem at the minute, just seems to be getting worse but May be it's just because it's still new for him? Well hopefully anyway xx
Its shit but you're doing ne right thing telling him the reasons you work and you're setting a good example and being a great role model. Just reiterate that work is not a fun place and he is not missing out, or you are not choosing work over him as long as you have some quality time in the week with him. Try your best to separate yourself from him I.e trips to the loo so he can learn on his own you always come back after, make it a game and have him count how long you're there until eventually he wont need to know youre in there x
