Afraid to go back to work...

My boss has thankfully given me the rest of the week off. At first I thought I would be going crazy being at home, but then I think about going to work...

I work at a preschool/daycare. Not to mention THREE ladies there have just had babies within the last month. The thought of going back to work right now throws me into a complete panic attack...

    I'm so sorry, but I know it'll be ok. I needed to go back to work 6 work days after giving birth. It was my choice. A lot of people thought I wouldn't go back at all since my last day in that position is May 19th. Its been hard because I was the 1st out of 4 co-workers that I chat with to get pregnant. Its so hard to see them, and I find myself excusing myself to cry. But its better than staying at home. And I know it'll get easier as time goes on. It'll be hard, but stay stong and you'll be fine!

    I took a week off and I think that is all I needed.  sitting at home just kind of made me go crazy.  All I did was cry and watch TV.  I was scared to go back too because everyone knew I was pregnant and everyone knew I had lost the baby.  Don't get me wrong I still think about her every second of every day but it helps to have work to drown yourself in sometimes.
