March 2011 Moms

went back to work today :(

and I cried! I missed my baby so much. I put on a happy face around coworkers, but when I was by myself I kept thinking of the funny faces she makes, and how I would pick her up and hold her, and soothe her when she is crying. It was hard! I come home to her and she was all fussy too, I think she missed me too. 
Another awkward thing - pumping at work... hehe. I didn't want to talk about, I didn't want to ask about, I know I am allowed and other ladies did that. I just closed the door in my office and hoped they would understand what I was doing. I brought little hello kitty thermos to put in the fridge so it doesn't actually show that it is my breast milk. My boss had a very good way to check with me if I was nursing - he asked me if I still drink coffee. I said no, I don't want a caffeinated baby.

  • wow. breastfeeding, back to work, an you still haven't started back to the coffee! kudos to you! I actually went back to decaf to see if that's why Ben was fussy, and he got worse! If I skip a day he is a miserable wreck just like me  :)  I usually have my one and only cup after my morning pumping though so he isn't getting on me for another  hours or so.
