I Cry Every Night Coming Home - Am I Failing My 5-Month-Old? 😭💔
I just returned to work full-time with my 5-month-old baby, and I'm completely falling apart 😢 My days start at dawn - daycare drop-off, 9-hour shifts, gym, then home to cook and prep for tomorrow. By the time I get home, my little one is already asleep.
The worst part? My partner sometimes makes me feel guilty, saying I should spend more time with our son. Trust me, I would if we could afford it! 💸 Even with my mom and mother-in-law helping two days a week, I still feel like I'm abandoning him.
Every single night, I cry myself to sleep thinking about his little face at daycare 😭 The mom guilt is eating me alive, but I have no choice - we need the income.
Please tell me I'm not alone in this struggle. How do you working mamas cope with leaving your babies so young? I need to know there's light at the end of this tunnel 💕
