Back to work and Daycare
Addy started daycare this past monday. i know it is a worse day for moms than it is for baby but i was really dreading/stressing over it. finally the day came and i had to take her, i cried as i was trying to tell the daycare lady information about her and answer her questions. she told me i could call as much as i wanted and did her best to make me feel better. the daycare also has a webcam so i gave my mom the address and had her look at it during the day for me. my worst fear was that she would cry the entire time....i didn't want her to be sad. (as i write this i am crying just thinking about it.) i hate having to go to work and wish i could stay home with her every day, but i live in reality and thats not possible. the first time i pumped that morning i cried as i sat there. afterwards i called to check on her and could barely talk since i was in tears. they told me she was doing fine and it sounded like they were loving on her alot which made me feel tons better. after that i was better, i still missed her but wasn't crying. finally at 3:15pm ira picked her up which made me feel even better that she was going to be at her own home with him. she didn't drink/nap as much as she normally does while at daycare that day but made up for it by drinking 7ozs with ira at home and then taking a huge nap after that. so long that i had to pump a few hours after i had got home since she was dead asleep. i'm sure the new environment was stressful on her and the daycare lady had told me that this would happen and is normal until they adjust. i'm thankful they held her and loved her so she wouldn't be sad or better yet mommy wouldn't be sad.
