Something is wrong with how I get to this address from home so I can't
even view the blog and haven't for a week.
Due to unforeseen circumstances, we have to have a backup plan with
daycare and today was Kaitlyn's first day of daycare - a sort of trial
run. My goal was to get her there 7:30/8:00 and pick her up at
12:00/12:30. I had spend almost 3 hours last night getting everything
ready, filling out the stack of paperwork, and labeling every she
owned. (Thank God for the P-Touch) I got up at 6:30 and managed to
throw on some jeans and a bit of makeup. Got her up, changed and fed
and STILL wasn't out of the house until 7:45 ARG! I'm gonna have to
work on this.
We get there and they showed us around. I was strong during the crib
setup but lost it at the goodbye part. I mean LOST IT. Full on tears
and quivering lip. Kaitlyn was fine. We went back to the office to
finish the paperwork and when we left - I was full on sobbing. Thank
you mommy hormones. I think it's a combination of things that is
getting to me. Most of which is going back to work and not seeing her
10-12 hours a day after spending almost every waking minute with her.
It's going to be a lot when I go back to meed to get everything
done...
My mom went with me to pick her up and she was ALL SMILES. It made me
feel SOOOO much better. I think I almost can handle it.
In other news today - SHE ROLLED OVER from her back to tummy and then
proceeded to do it all day/night long and not nap :) I have pics to
post but I can't until this website thing is fixed.
It may be hard; but try to focus on what you have and not what you don't have.
ReplyDeleteYou have a beautiful baby, well taken care of, a good job, house, husband AND HEALTH.
A minor separation from your daughter should only be a minor blip on all the good things.
Keep positive and live in the moment, not in the past or future.
Try to focus on the fact that she is being well cared for and is happy...soon she will be watching the other babies and having lots of new experiences.

I cannot believe you are already back to work! What happened to your other daycare plan? We have GOT to chat. Um, I started crying when I was reading about you sobbing. SO SAD. And, I have to respectfully disagree with anonymous. Going back to work full time is not a "minor" separation; I am STILL adjusting - and don't think I will ever LOVE it.
