Hi, I am due to return to work on three days a week next month. 14mo ds keeps crying when I leave him at cm. I'm really stressed about whether I'll like my new job (I changed dept to get part time) and find it hard to enjoy my time with ds knowing I'm going to be handing him over for full days soon :( its almost like I'm distancing myself from ds to make the transition easier for both of us.
I just feel so stressed and depressed. I need to return to work for financial reasons, though I know if we downsized from our modest lifestyle to a very modest one I could give up work temporarily.
I feel like a crap mother for leaving ds. Does anyone else have experience of working three days and will it get better?
