Hi mummy, not to worry on the transition part. It is part and parcel of a Full Time Working Mother (FTWM) Kindly ensure that you prepare your body, baby and yourself at least 1 month before going back to work. What you need to do basically is to establish milk flow whether bb is going Infant Care (IFC) or staying home. You will need to pump out the milk and bottle feed your child before going to IFC. It's mummy''s responsibility to guide bb 1st. You will also need to share and educate bb by talking to him/her and sharing that it's not that you don't wish to take care but you need to work. U need to prepare yourself too. Be positive and going back to work will b a breeze. Be confident! Kudos to FTWM

It is going to be hard but just power through it. Focus on your work to the best of your abilities and look forward to going home.
