hi shrestha Satish! i do understand your apprehenions. please don't worry u will make an amazing working Mom too! working mothers bonding with their child is as strong as that of stay at home mom's. it's just that u will have to spend quality time with whatever time u have in ur hand. do talk a lot with yr child ,once u r back. do his chores on ur own. most importantly feed the child. make most of the weekends. here is a blog, hope u will find it useful ! Hey! I find this parent blog really interesting. I suggest you have a look too: https://www.parentune.com/parent-blog/a-working-moms-sunday-heres-how-it-goes-for-dr-pooja-attrey/2466?ptref=sa0l000030g01. hope this helps!

hello ..don't worry about the bond and love both of you share.. it will be there forever. I am also a working woman. when u start resuming work again spare some time exclusively for u and baby after the work. try to breastfeed him. and train him from now onwards to spend his time away from his mommy. that's what I do now. i also want to join work soon. so I deliberately leave him with her grandparents so that she gets used to it. I pump bm and keep myself away from her for a couple of hours ( u can begin from 30 mnts and gradually increase the timing)
