Not feeling guilty
Show your support
The first day I dropped my baby girl at the nursery I sensed freedom. In the 3 weeks introduction, I got my bike out, went cycling, took yoga classes, quietly enjoyed having a coffee. I was extremely satisfied to go back to work and never felt guilty about all my feelings. I dedicated 9 months to her and now it was me time and some sense of back in control 🫣 I also see how much she is evolving in the nurseryand she is very happy. We still get some time in the mornings, after picking her up and weekends.

I feel guilty for not feeling guilty, if that makes sense?! I'm so looking forward to going back to work and I know it's the right thing to do for both me and her, so there's no guilt. Just feeling bad that there's no guilt, lol. My main concern is not about missing her too much or about her settling in, but more about how I'll cope with the long hours at work, and then the housework, cooking, etc. on top of that. Especially when she's still not sleeping great. So then I feel guilty that that's my main worry.
I don’t feel guilty sending my daughter to nursery as she absolutely loves it. I’m the kind of person that needs to work, it’s just who I am. However I do really miss her and can’t wait to get home to her! I’m not excited to be away from her at all, it’s just what has to happen for me to work. I’m off Tuesdays and absolutely love having this day with her! I do think it’s normal for some people to feel how you’re feeling though - sometimes you just need adult conversation and something else to stimulate your brain!
