I've now survived my first week back to work. It was hard, yes, but not really as bad as I thought it might be. I think it helps knowing that Cameron is in the capable hands of Nana and Grandma while I'm away. But that doesn't make waking up and knowing I have no time to cuddle my little man any easier!
It has been tough for me to get back into the swing of things at the office. I feel like I've been expected to hit the ground running, and I'd rather be strolling leisurely. My brain just doesn't seem to function quite as well as it used to!
While I had learned that "pregnancy brain" is all too real, I now know that "mommy brain" is too. I find myself saying the wrong word for things all the time: simple stuff like telling Chris "the pasta is in the fridge" when clearly the pasta is sitting in the sink. Doesn't bode too well for an editor when words are mixed up, forgotten, and complete sentences can't always be formed, huh?! Sheesh. I hope it doesn't take too much longer for me to feel comfortable in my old skin again.
