**K&D**

Ive been thinking about you and wanted to see how you are doing.  Im not sure exactly what day you were going back to work, but I know its tough.  My first day back was yesterday and I cried all day, (Sunday and Monday too.)  I hope that baby Kelsie is adjusting well and know that we are all here for you.  ((HUGS))

Re: **K&D**

  • Thanks for thinking of me!

    I've had a lump in my throat all day today with a few crying jags in between. I go back Friday afternoon to supposedly help ease my way back into it, and then full-time on Monday. I'm so incredibly sad. I feel like I'm about to give her up for adoption I feel so horrible.

    Glad to hear I'm not just over the edge emotional and that I'm not alone. The downside to my tears is that I am the only one that does my job so I can't go in crying all day. I have to suck it up and take my makeup along for touch ups. :(

    I would just feel so much better if my mom lived close and could watch her. but I have to let those dreams go......

  • Thats good that you are going in Fri, I hadnt left D for 5 mins before the first day, and it was a long 12 hours.  I feel the same way that D is going to wake up and think I abandoned him.  I was so nervous about someone else caring for him and how he would cope, but he has done so well.  Its definitely harder on us moms than it is on them.  I still cry every morning while Im getting ready.  He cries when I wake him up to get him in the car and it breaks my heart.  Just try to remember that they are safe and being cared for.  
    It will never be easy, but I promise it does get better.

    I wish your mom was closer too, but in the beginning I dont think that anything will make it easier.  You just want to be with your baby.  Just try to remember that you chose the person that you did because you felt they would take good care of her, and you trust them.  It will be good for Kelsie to learn to trust people too. 
    Good luck nest week!!!
