At 4:30 p.m. today, my 12 week maternity leave ended.
I’m heart-sick.

It’s times like this that I wish I lived in Canada or another foreign country that has better maternity leaves. I’m sorry that your maternity leave has ended… I will pray that your transition back to work is smoother than anticipated and that the breastfeeding continues to go well.

In a perfect world life wouldn’t be so expensive that those of us that wanted to stay home, could.
The look on her face can only be interpreted as “wow I love this lady”. Precious!

It is such a shame that the US is behind so many other countries when it comes to maternity/paternity leave. but the US doesn’t value families like we claim we do.
I can’t imagine, I wish I lived closer I would take your baby for you.

i am SO sorry it’s over. sorry, too, that i’ll be joining you, potentially sooner rather than later. maybe even at 5 friggin’ weeks. i’ve got enough anger and frustration for the both of us.
z-girl is gorgeous.

I’m sorry you have to go back so soon. I wonder if your candidates have anything to say about extending maternity leave? It makes me realise how lucky we are in Europe.

(((HUGS))) That’s all I can say–I know how hard it is.

I’ll be thinking of you on Monday morning. Does Mr. DD take those amazing pictures?? Somehow, I don’t think it is X Boy!
Enjoy every moment of this weekend.

Today, when I was setting stuff aside for you (let me know if you want it), I was thinking, “Well, she’s only a month old, so…”

She’s just beautiful. And she loves her mama. All my best in your transition.

I feel your heartache DD, I went back to work 3 weeks ago after having the luxury of a year off (Yay Canada!).
Every day I am consumed with guilt when I drop G off at daycare but seeing his face light up when he spots his caregiver and friends makes it a little better. I hope it’s the same for you and ZGirl.

I cannot believe it’s been 12 weeks already!!!!
What an absolutely stunning picture, and gorgeous little girl.
I hope your first day back isn’t too bad. xoxox

Oh DD, how beautiful is she! I can see why the prospect of leaving for work is so awful.

Awww! Great pic!
That stinks about having to leave her for…*blech*…work. Can’t you just sneak her in your purse or something?

Awww, that sucks for you!
I would have a real hard time leaving that beautiful lil girl.
Her smile is so wonderful. I think she likes you.
