Tomorrow marks the end my maternity leave. I am bitter sweet about returning to work. Mikey is slowly starting to come into his own. I am finally learning his cries and his adorable faces. He knows nothing else besides me taking care of him during the days. I am very sad to be losing all this time with Mikey. He is changing every day and I feel like I will miss so much of him. I worry that he will not get the attention that I give him. I will miss him terribly, more than I ever even knew I would and I havent even gone back to work yet. I am excited to return to the work place because as many of you know, I actually like my job (dont tell them that!). I am looking forward to the social aspect as well as having some place to get dressed up to go to. There are pros and cons of staying at home/working and I think that whatever decision people make they always envy the other. So I will probably not sleep well tonight part out of excitement and part out of worry for my son! Wish me luck that I will survive my first day back without breaking down in tears!

You will cry, but that is 100% normal. It will get easier with each passing day and you will eventually have a routine that works best for you and for Mikey. Good luck tomorrow!
Thinking of you today Meg -- we are all behind you :-)
And I agree with Karen -- crying is perfectly acceptable!
