So my DD is 5 weeks old today and I'm scheduled to return to work in 3-4 weeks. I don't want to leave her with anyone. To top that off, my oldest child will be leaving for college in 2 weeks. Does anyone have any tips that made returning to work easier?
Re: Not ready to go back to work
My plan of attack is that I am only taking 2-3 shifts per week max to start. My sister is a SAHM so she will be watching Stella every second week - I am fortunate enough that my DH works one week on and one week off, so he will be home with her on his weeks off.
To be honest I am a weepy mess because I did not have to go back to work with my eldest until she was 2 1/2 due to being laid off and going back to school. She is also our last baby and I just want to be there for all her milestones like I was with Madison so this has been a love hate ordeal for me. But I have to work as Calgary is a super expensive city to live in and I don't have much choice. I am just hoping to be transferred to a pharmacy closer to home so I can spend less time away from my babies
