Returning To Work After Baby

Some new mums have their career on their mind, other mums don't have a choice and have to return to work and then of course there are mums who can't even stand the thought of heading back to the workforce. Here we'll provide you with some helpful tips on going from baby's nursery back to the office without feeling guilty & stressed. Being a mum is a full-time job in itself, so going back to work can be a tense & stressful juggling act for the whole family, not just for mum. It takes a great deal of support & understanding from family members to ease this difficult transition. The most important factor that I have found is to be organized & prioritise. Preparing bottles, clothes and meals the night before even though all you really want to do is sit down, will save time & stress the following day. Having a set budget & bills arranged in due date order takes the worry out of keeping on top of finances. Select easy fuss free meals to make and if you can't keep the ironing basket down then don't feel guilty about hiring someone to do it for you. You don't have to be a superhero, never, ever say no to help if you really do need it! Before you go back to work, do your sums and make sure it really is going to be worthwhile. Sometimes with the costs involved with childcare, transport to and from work as well as the wardrobe required, you are actually better off staying at home. So work out what will be best for you and your baby and most of all, don't feel guilty about whatever decision you finally make!
