Ladies,
Today is my first day back at work and I am just a mess. 12 weeks is a long time to be away from a job and I feel like it's my first day at a new job. I'm lucky I work with such great people, but I miss my little guy. Things have changed dramatically here at work and I'm just waitin' for the other shoe to drop. I just needed to share with a supportive group. Thanks.

ETA: to make more sense

I hear you, sister! Hugs to you - the first week back is the worst, but it definitely gets better.

It gets better, but it's never the same again! Good luck!

I remember how tough it was to go back to work and my kids were 15 months old...it must be really hard with an infant. I hope each day gets easier for you.

Sorry you're having a tough time. I know just going on a long vacation from work used to seem like everything had changed and I can't imagine 12 weeks. And to go along with that, missing your son. I hope things feel better for you soon.

Just comiserating... today is my first day back at work too. I was lucky enough to have a year off, so I can't even begin to imagine how hard it must be to go back after only 12 weeks. On the other hand, I really have no memory of what my job is all about, LOL. I am just waiting for someone around here to have a tantrum, booboo, accident, etc. - that seems to be my area of expertise these days, not the computer work I am expected to do!
