Getting my groove back
Going back to work after being off for a year with a baby is not an easy task.
First off , are the early mornings. Being up at the crack of dawn, while it is still dark, was okay when I knew it was for a feeding, but Now it just seems unreal. It has only been a week mind you, but still. I think it is getting harder not easier especially since the days are getting shorter (Yes I live in Canada! ) where sunlight is in short supply in the cooler months
next is getting into a routine of not only getting myself up and dressed and out the door, but also to add to the mix feeding, dressing and changing a toddler on a time line. I thought that getting up earlier would help, but it seems that I move slower from lack of sleep and the same for my daughter, who I know does not like being woke at 5:45 in the morning.
She has gone back to having a morning nap which I hope will just be until she adjusts and gets a little older too.
YEAH for starting daycare next week. I'm still a little unsure about how it will all work out but I know that it will and in a few weeks we will all look back and wonder how it was ever any different (I HOPE!)

Back to Work! Yikes
Hi,
I have been off on maternity for the past year, well actually it has been 14 months because i had an extension, and now it will all be over in a matter of days.
I would love to hear from other Moms who have been through this, as I actually feel a little in denial that I will really be back in that routine again. It's almost like I feel I just have to do one day and that's it.
I have been trying to plan and get myself adjusted to a routine of getting up again (no more jammie mornings ;) and actually my daughter has been getting up before 7am for a while now so that helps a little. I just can't imagine how we will all get to where we need to go on time.
I am going to terribly miss the daytime cuddles and the freedom that comes with being home. I really actually feel guilty about going back to work, and secretly wish I did not have too.
I still am working on coming up with ways to earn income at home,
So please let me know your HELPFUL HINTS and Suggestions for how to make this transition easier
