Working mums

Preparing to go back work in a month and feeling the anxiety now.. Feels like can't be there during LO's waking hours and will miss a lot of their milestones.. Will they forget us.. Working mums could u share ur experience on how u cope, any adjustment that could be made to spend more time with LO? Thanks!

It's very difficult at the start and I had the same worries as you, always feeling sad for missing their milestones and worried they won't be as attached to me. But i got used to it, also realized that baby milestone doesn't just happen in one day but a gradual thing, if you see baby everyday you won't miss anything. And my baby is always super happy when I get back home, after a long day at work seeing baby's excited and happy face is the best feeling ever. So it will be fine don't worry too much! Luckily my company is also quite flexible so I can work from home occasionally so I can spend more time with baby.
