It's Monday and the last day of my maternity leave. What I thought of six months as a long time is coming to an end. It's fast!
Thinking back, I seemed to have done a lot, yet it also seemed like not
much. I remember my struggles, taping myself six times a day with a tube to breastfeed S, carrying her and snoozing together on the sofa, going through her non-eating phase, going for walks with the carrier, bringing her to the breastfeeding group, gymboree class and many more... These are tough but sweet memories. From tomorrow onwards, we will not be able to do these things that stay-at-home moms get to do. For S, I have continued to wake up in the middle of the night to pump. Wonder if I can continue to do that. dd has been a great help feeding S so that I can concentrate on my pumping.
Tomorrow, I go back to the adult world. I need more energy!
