[quote=Anonymous]Are there any women at your firm you can ask for advice? I know that can be tricky and some people advise you to NEVER reveal that you are less than perfect. But if there's anyone you trust, test the waters for "how did you do it" advice. Also, what's your commute like? Is daycare close to home or work (yours or husbands)? Can you start to push bedtime back? Or switch your day so that you start super early and get to have evening time with your baby? Is your anxiety making you work harder than you need to or feel those 5-7 emails more harshly than you need to? Have you gotten any feedback about your performance or timeliness since you returned from maternity leave? Trying to see if there's anything you can change now or soon to help. As others have said, it does get better. Try to get control of something so you feel less powerless.[/quote]
