As I count down the last few days of being a stay-at-home mom, I'm realizing just how much I'll miss while at work... helping her learn to sit up, grasp toys, try her first foods, crawl and eventually take her first steps - and more importantly, just the quality time I'll forego for a paycheck. I know that returning to work for any mom must be difficult, but at this point, I simply cannot fathom the pain I will feel being separated all day from my little one. How do you working moms do it? I'm agonizing over this impending change daily. I wish there was some magic wand I could wave to make all the circumstances right for me to stay with my baby.

For me it was easy with Avery, he school was right by my work and I breastfeed her while at work. The way I thought about it- I was just working while she slept, then I fed her and she played with some other babies/teachers for a little while before we started the routine all over again. Now the interaction is good of her and although you miss them you learn to adapt and I think it makes them more confident children. It is worth more money to keep your children as near to you as possible!
