Going back to work

[Flossie03]

I've decided to go back tomorrow (it's been 2 weeks since my miscarriage) and although I know I need to go back and try and get back into a routine I am feeling so anxious and sick about it, I'm dreading people asking me why I have been off and I just can't wait to have my first day back over with xx

i hope everything goes ok for you going back to work. i asked my bosses to tell people why i'd been off so i didn't get the questions when i went back. good luck for tomorrow x

I really hope it goes okay. If you dont want to tell them just make something up, its your call completely.
Good luck

It was ahrd going back for me too. I also suggest getting someone to let everyone know, just in case you are sad, or a little emotional. People won't give sympathy for someone emotional if they don't know the reason. Or, perhaps saying someone close to you died. That's what I said last time, although I am off work right now anyways.

I survived my first day back although typically one of the first people to come and talk to me told me she is pregnant and due the month before I would have been Of course I am happy for her but I had to put a brave face on.

Hopefully it can only get easier from now on, thanks for all your lovely messages xx

 

[JASMAK]

I am so sorry for your loss Flossie. I really hope everything went well on your return to work. Just take care of yourself and try not to push yourself. I recently had a 2nd mc, which I found out about on the Monday, had a D&C on Thursday and went back to work that Monday. In hindsight I pushed myself back to work far too quickly and ended up bursting into tears yesterday in the middle of the office (despite the fact I have been back at work 3 weeks now). Only my manager knows about my mc so my colleagues must think I'm mad for being such an emotional wreck. I have quite a stessful job and on average work a 60 hour week. If you feel its too early or things statry to just get on top of you - talk to your manager if you can - but don't think twice about taking more time if you feel you need to. I thought it would be better for me to try and get on with things - but I now realise that forcing myself back to work has just meant I'm exhausted and finding it probably a lot more difficult to cope than if I had just taken a little more time. Take care of yourself. x

Thinking of you my darling xxxx

Oh sweetie you sound so strong. That must've been a very tough day back at work

If you need to take more time for you, then you take it. I came back to work just over a week after and struggled for a good while. I was very quiet and didn't really want to know about anything.

Look after yourself xxx xxx

Thanks ladies, your support means so much, hope you are all ok and those that are also facing a struggle with going back to work are looking after yourselves xx
