Hi
Just after some people's opinions and experiences.
I return back to work soon. The majority of my maternity leave has been slightly hard for me. I struggled with being alone all day after having a full time and full on job. I was suddenly at home with a baby to care for and i struggled to fill my time regardless of being as busy as possible.
With the last half of maternity leave being during lockdown, these feelings haven't really got better.
I love my baby, but i do find 24/7 with her a little stressful at times, i think this has been due to lockdown too.
I really hate not enjoying every minute with my baby and feel guilty for wanting time away now and again. Do you think returning to work part time will help restore some balance in my life and help me enjoy being a parent more? Did anyone find that returning to work was a turning point at all?
TIA
