Hi Christina mummy, I believed most mummies have went thru this "tough period" especially after our maternity (*-*) hugz I have home camera so I will try to view it to ensure everything is well at home especially our little one. The first few weeks or months are the "teething phrase" where mummy and the baby will need to adjust themselves to the different daily habits (such as waking up by the alarm instead of the crying of the baby. Or squeezing into the mrt like a sardine fish etc. .lol ) You will naturally feel moody and thinking of quiting your job or feeling emotional for leaving your baby with others etc. Try to be positive and text your supportive mummies group for the strength to carry on. In no time, you will get through that and it may not be a bad idea to have your own space (am referring to working time/days) so that you can get re-connected with outside world and dress up to work to cheer up yourself:) Jia you Y (*-*)Y Happy mummy = Happy baby
