Preschool/school mum guilt - anyone else?!

@Ella I hope so! I picked her up today and she didn’t want to leave so I assume she had a great time but they did say she was a bit wobbly in the morning as she kept saying she missed me! She starts swimming there in 2 weeks and that’s her favourite so I think once she starts that she will be absolutely fine! X
Mom guilt never goes away but the preschool will get better!
Trust me the mum guilt will soon disappear 🤣🤣
Oh my goodness I’m not quite at preschool age yet but I have had to start thinking about it… I think I wouldn’t be able to handle my son telling me that it isn’t as fun as being home 🥺😢 However, I think it’s good for them to experience that kind of thing and start learning to be apart from us. As a sahm I think we start to become codependent on our kids too so it’s as hard or harder for us to let them go I think. I hope it gets easier for you
I still get mum guilt and my daughter has been at nursery since April 2023. I am working though so she has to be, I just miss her a lot and I feel like the time we have before nursery is so rushed and by the time we get home we just eat and sleep.
Yes the guilt goes ☺️ when you are confident she's well cared for and you know deep in your heart that she has a lovely time there and is learning so many things and this is the best thing for her.... you stop feeling guilty.
