Hi all, just wanted to ask if returning to work is as scary as I've built it up to be in my head I'm a first time mum, very close connection with my daughter, she's almost 10 months old and hasn't yet left my side, my partner works out of town Monday to Friday so it's just us two a lot of the time. LO is still breastfeeding on demand as well as BLW. She feeds to sleep for naps so I'm worried about how she will cope without me. I did work full time but my boss has asked if I want to ease into returning by doing 5 hours 2/3 days a week starting in March (I'm due back 2nd May) he has also agreed I can return part time (5 hours 4 days a week) for the first three months and we will review and go from there. My sister has agreed to look after LO until she returns to work next year so LO will be with someone who she knows and who loves her. I'm just so scared about how we are both going to cope with the change.
