I’m sitting here the night before I return to work starting this blog. I’ve spent the past few months preparing my family and my baby for my return to work, but I forgot to prepare myself. The past three months, I have seen the clock hit 3:00am every night while holding my baby because I’m not ready to put him in his bassinet. He actually does really well in his bassinet and I just hold him by choice.

Although I was supposed to return to work at the beginning of July and then mid-July and I’ve had plenty of time to prepare myself, I don’t know if I could ever quite be ready for this moment. And I know I can’t be the only mom who feels like this. I don’t know how anyone could ever quite be ready for this moment. Who wants to put their baby down and jump back into Excel sheets?

No one?

I thought so.

I even feel guilty for putting my baby in his bassinet to write this post!

This blog is for all of the women who need company with navigating their return to work while being a mom. I will share my tips, tricks, and breakdowns with you. I will give you a completely honest look at what my experience is like, from pumping to returning to wearing pumps. After all, this is my first time navigating this world as well.

In less than 10 hours, I will have to leave my precious baby, put on something other than a nursing bra and running shorts. and head into the office.

Wish. Me. Luck.
