My little one has just started nursery (she’s 12 months) and it’s her first day - I’m hating it!!!
I took her first 3 days off work as annual leave in case there were any problems and was really looking forward to some me time but I’m just sitting here feeling sad.
She has to go in for 10 hours - I work full time - and I can’t believe I’m barely going to see her today. I know a lot of mums who work part time because they can afford it but I just can’t right now - living costs are SO high we need two full time salaries to get by. I know I shouldn’t but I feel like a bad mum for doing it. I managed to get them to agree to a weekend shift so I can send her for 4 days but even that seems cruel.
I feel all wrong being on my own and I just miss her, worried she won’t nap, worried she’ll cry, that she won’t eat or drink enough… it’s just really crap.
