Checking in to cry on your collective shoulder
Work is fine. I am still happy to be put and about. Dropping him off was fine, he was happy yadda yadda. But apparently he has been crying his head off and refusing to eat. I heard him screaming on the phone and they cannot console him. My stupid fault for calling I guess. I knew this would be hard since he is used to me and I know he will adjust but today is the suck. Tell me it will get better.

IT WILL GET BETTER!!!!
He just misses your scent. He misses your musk.
Stop smelling so good.
and HI!
It really will get better. It will just take him a day or two to get used to bottle vs breast and napping without being on you. It is the suck for sure, but it will be worth it in the end.
He will be fine, you will be fine -- he's just little and misses his mom.
P.S. Don't call to check on him.

Oh Winger. I'm sorry. But he'll get used to it in no time I'm sure.
Definitely stop calling. They'll call you if they need you, right?
The nerve!

My co-workers daughter went through the same thing. Crying for a couple of days, she still didn't eat at daycare for longer than that. Now she loves it.
Most def. your bebe will do great. And it's esp. good that he gets to be w/ an alternate caregiver when he's little b/c separation anxiety hasn't kicked in and they adapt so quickly. We lost our nanny when my son was 11 mos. old and it's been a PITA trying to get him to "get along" with anyone else.
As for you (well, really, as for me...) - I found that while it was initially sort of nice to get back to the office, it became difficult after a couple weeks when the "newness" of being back wore off. That was the hardest part for me. Now, I love being back to work and wouldn't want to SAH. But I would have never believed that I'd ever say that in my second month back.

It will get better and this is 100% normal. He will learn you always come back and that these people will take good care of him but I can't even imagine how hard it is on you.
Oh and it doesn't matter now but when he is older (2+) and crying don't linger, it always makes it worse!
