I so wish that the US had the system that Canada does in terms of leave. I want to work but I think it's torture that women in the US have to return so soon. There should be a better system. :/ </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/cheer-me-up-1#post-1500783 Tue, 18 Mar 2014 10:37:07 +0000 MrsKoala 1500783@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Twine: Our daycare is all of those things so I appreciate the reminder that it will be a good place for LO to be. It does make me feel better to know that he will be well taken care of and I will see him at least once a day! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/cheer-me-up-1#post-1500701 Tue, 18 Mar 2014 10:23:02 +0000 Ash 1500701@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I went back 3 weeks ago and I'm still sad every time I leave. :( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/cheer-me-up-1#post-1500668 Tue, 18 Mar 2014 10:15:05 +0000 Mrs. Twine 1500668@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MrsKoala: When Ellie was in daycare it was SO wonderful to see her on my lunch break and get to nurse her. And the best daycares I have ever, ever encountered have been at Universities. Usually they are play-based, really creative, and such nurturing places. The first week is hard, but it does get easier. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/cheer-me-up-1#post-1500667 Tue, 18 Mar 2014 10:14:38 +0000 MrsKoala 1500667@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@lavender: Thanks! :) I'm texting DH now asking where my pictures are! He promised to send a couple every day! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/cheer-me-up-1#post-1500658 Tue, 18 Mar 2014 10:12:33 +0000 MrsKoala 1500658@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@petunia354: Thank you! I'm still a hot mess, too! It's been really tough to go back so soon. I always knew that I would be a WOHM so you are right in that it will make me a better mom in the long run. He just seems so young to be without me and I'm not ready to be without him!</p> <p>@MsLipGloss: Thank you! Those are the perfect songs! :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/cheer-me-up-1#post-1500573 Tue, 18 Mar 2014 09:50:36 +0000 lavender 1500573@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Hope your day flies by. Definitely treat yourself to lunch out! And make sure DH texts you loads if pictures of N :heart: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/cheer-me-up-1#post-1500546 Tue, 18 Mar 2014 09:42:16 +0000 MsLipGloss 1500546@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MrsKoala: I always find a little music to be helpful. Here's a little Barry White and Pharrell Williams with some perky tunes: </p> <p><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2zfxZRBm3EY&#038;feature=player_detailpage" rel="nofollow">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2zfxZRBm3EY&#038;feature=player_detailpage</a></p> <p><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y6Sxv-sUYtM&#038;feature=player_detailpage" rel="nofollow">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y6Sxv-sUYtM&#038;feature=player_detailpage</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/cheer-me-up-1#post-1500527 Tue, 18 Mar 2014 09:37:23 +0000 DillonLion 1500527@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MrsKoala: oh that will be good!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/cheer-me-up-1#post-1500515 Tue, 18 Mar 2014 09:33:30 +0000 petunia354 1500515@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Oh man, I was still a hot mess at 6 weeks so I can't even imagine how you must be coping! I'm sending you lots of hugs! At least you've already been through the worst part, leaving him for the first time to go to work! It's only going to get better from here. And you are lucky that he'll be so close by for visits and middle of the day snuggles :) </p> <p>I will say though, that I cried leading up to going back to work and definitely a lot the first day so you are not alone in how you feel! It did get better though and I really do enjoy going to work every day, I think it makes me a much better mom, lol. Good luck, friend! :happy: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/cheer-me-up-1#post-1500498 Tue, 18 Mar 2014 09:27:55 +0000 MrsKoala 1500498@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@snowjewelz: @MrsMccarthy: Thanks for the encouragement, ladies! I did get myself some Starbucks this morning as a treat and I'm treating myself to lunch today too. It's tough because I work in an office/department by myself so no distractions from being sad. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/cheer-me-up-1#post-1500492 Tue, 18 Mar 2014 09:26:25 +0000 MrsKoala 1500492@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@DillonLion: I work at a local college. LO is with DH this week and with MIL next week. We start daycare at my college's center on April 2. The only thing that makes it better is that he will be close by and I can go see him on lunch breaks. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/cheer-me-up-1#post-1500466 Tue, 18 Mar 2014 09:19:25 +0000 MrsMccarthy 1500466@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm so so so sorry honey. That is so young and you must feel so distraught. Try of you can to enjoy the little advantages to being away from LO. Enjoy a nice walk on your lunch break or a yummy special treat. Maybe some retail therapy. Find ways to make the best of a hard time and know that your sweet baby will be so happy to see you when you get home. Hugs! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/cheer-me-up-1#post-1500458 Tue, 18 Mar 2014 09:16:26 +0000 snowjewelz 1500458@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Aww I hope today is a busy work day then to keep you occupied! I hope you enjoy your conversations w/ coworkers today, and get back into the groove of a working woman again! I'm sure your LO is happy &amp; oblivious :happy: You can do it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/cheer-me-up-1#post-1500443 Tue, 18 Mar 2014 09:11:04 +0000 DillonLion 1500443@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Good luck momma!! You can do it. What do you do for work? Is LO at home or at a center? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/cheer-me-up-1#post-1500436 Tue, 18 Mar 2014 09:08:39 +0000 MrsKoala 1500436@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It's my first day back at work after maternity leave and I was heartbroken to leave my 6 week old son this morning. Anyone want to cheer me up this morning? </p>
