Returning to work

Hey mamas! Did anyone ever return to work and then feel the bond between you and your little one shift? My maternity leave was 16 weeks long and my baby was GLUED to me the entire time. Crying? Give him to mama Needs a nap? Give him to mama Wanna see him smile? Mama again This week I started work back full time and when he gets dropped off, he barely even looks at me. He still just smiles and looks at his grandparents. I thought his face would light up like it did when his dada would get home from work when I was on maternity leave still. I feel so heartbroken..

I’m starting back at work in a couple weeks and I’m so nervous about this

I only go to the office twice a week and those days when I return home my baby let’s me know he’s upset by not looking at me, he turns his head and pretends im not there😭🥺 so I hold him and prop him to eye level and tell him how much I missed him and to stop being angry until a smile finally breaks through!! It sounds crazy cause he’s only 5 months but I swear he’s actually angry that I left for the day 😂

Awww give it some time momma!! I felt the same way but now my little guy lights up when he sees me!
