Returning to work after stress leave, finding out I'm pregnant

Hi,

This is my first message, I'm grateful for any response.

I took nearly 7 weeks off work due to workplace stress this year, I then found out I was pregnant a week before I was due to go back on a phased return. Work have been amazing and so supportive, my boss knows I'm pregnant and I cannot fault how supportive she has been.

I went back to work doing 3 hours a day (I was previously full time) and this week doing 4 hours. I am about 6 weeks pregnant (first baby) and feel so emotional and upset. I really want to be at work but returning to work was a really big thing even before I found out I was pregnant. I guess I just feel overwhelmed and worried I won't be able to cope with everything. Has anyone else experienced anything similar and can offer any words of advice?
