Feeling low now DD started school

[Yerjacky]

After the high of getting her through the doors without teard, for the first time in my life I feel low, teary & have little motivation. I hate this new enforced routine & I just miss her, worry for her at school, is she making friends, is she being nice, eating her lunch, coping etc

You need a project to throw yourself into either at work or home. Try not to worry, and try and do something you enjoy to take your mind off it.

OP don't worry. This will pass. I remember driving up near the playground at break time to see if dd was ok only to find her rolling about in fits of giggles with a new friend. And then they're full of stories for you at the end of the day. Honestly you and she will be fine.

Bingo a project, you have actually just given me the words to talk to my other half. I've just been niggling at him all day. He's just got where I'm coming from. Thank you pebblesandfriends

Thanks LadyRochfordsHoickedGusset
That's something I would do 😅

My DC2 has just started and she's my baby, in some ways it's harder than the first time round. I miss having her at home too!

#Drspouce that's got to be tough too. Ohh we just blinked and it passed by
