- so many of you asked to see a video of my first day back to work after baby, and it was so hard to say goodbye to the kiddos! but overall, i had a great first day and so far this week is going really well. we're all just adjusting to our new normal. :) i decided to do it what i ate wednesday style, because since i work from home, it's pretty much me working in my office all day. i am pumping 3 times while I work, and i started drinking mama nursing tea to make sure i'm pumping enough milk to send with baby P every day, and it helps so much! i had to share this with you guys, in case you're looking for a way to increase your milk supply.

"Successful mother's are not the ones who have never struggled. They are the ones who never give up, despite the struggles"
Awww...my daughter is 7 and sometimes I still cry when I'm away from her. I work weekends (still 40 hours in 3 days!!!!!) while she's at her dad's house. I'd rather work my butt of for three days so that I can be a sahm throughout the week. Your doing great and setting a great example for your kids!!!!!
I was literally in tears when your kiddos came home! I'm a stay at home mom and I can't imagine the struggle you had watching them leave for the day. Just keep thinking this is for them to have better lives and you are an amazing mom! Strong mommy you are!
Since you work from home, have you thought about having an in home nanny? I used to nanny for a woman who worked full time from home, but I came over everyday to watch the kids, pick up the house, do laundry, take the kids to the park or pool or sports activities. It was nice for the kids to still be home, and mom still got to eat lunch with us or pop in for hugs and kisses. Most the time she was in her office with headphones in getting her work done. I know you have GG, but something to think about 😊
The Halfway Housewife yes!!! I was a nanny for a mom that worked full time from home and watched her 10 month old. She could nurse him whenever and see him anytime :)
The Halfway Housewife I totally agree. I did the same thing, and it worked out being a lot cheaper then daycare. Cry all you want Brianna. I don't have kids, but I can't even imagine what you are going through.
American moms are tough as nails! I had an entire year off and cried and cried my first day. Hang in there. You are killing it! Also, thank you showing what "working" mom's go through. It's really hard.
Living Large on a Budget I wish I could have a year off. I would be more comfortable with sending her to daycare at 1 then 3 months. But it's life 😟
SxyGrl44 I’m so sorry! It’s just unfair but you just have to do what you have to do! Sending you hugs.
I feel you totally. This is so heartbreaking but I thought the whole incentive of being able to work from home is that you get to be with the kids. How about bringing your childcare into your house so that you can pop in to nurse baby directly during feeding time instead of having to pump? I agree pumping is the worst!
Like a lot of the comments here, I got tears in my eyes watching you struggle when they left. It is so ridiculously hard. I used to give myself 10 minutes to sit in the daycare carpark and cry. Then I would head off to work looking like a mess, not a hot mess, just a mess. You are a real sweetie and your children are beautiful, healthy and happy. Love your videos and hello from Australia!
Thank you so much for sharing! I am a first time mama and went back to work the very same day that you did. It was so nice to see that all of my crazy emotions that day were normal and to see you power through it helped ME power through it. I would LOVE to see more about being a working mama on your channel, there is not enough of that out there!
I did not go back to work for 1,5 years. I had twin girls and i had to stay at home. Now i work for 3 day's as a nurse. Love it.
My little girl is only 3 weeks old and she's napping right now. Just thinking about going back to work and not seeing that little face all day made me cry watching this video!!
I saw you cry and then I got tears in my eyes. I feel your pain.... my daughter just went to college this week and I freaking cried like a baby when she left. Just know it will get easier with time.
I seriously just cried watching this video. I have a 5 month old daughter and am very fortunate to stay at home with her. I can't imagine having to be apart from her all day. Im so proud of how well you did! Keep up the good work. You're an awesome mommy! Love your videos!
I'm crying with you. This is one reason why I did not want to have another child. Daycare of using a provider is the hardest decision a mother can make.
This made me tear up! Girl you're such a strong mama! 💪🏻😘
Im Heading back to work on 25 August after my 60 days maternity leave and it is a difficult and emotional challenge again . And again I had a hard time transitioning back to full-time working mom mode, all while my baby was in the care of strangers. The first day back was so hard. I cried through most of the day.
You had me in tears the first few seconds! I just had my first 2 weeks ago today and don't even want to think about leaving him for a second! You're a great mama! Stay strong! ❤️
oh my gosh! I am going to end up crying so much when i have to go back to work after the baby is born! You are such a good momma!
I cried when you cried, then cried again when they come home! And i'm 21 with no kids! Well done to you, think how proud of you they will be in years to come, youre inspirational. XXX
I feel bad asking this again because I've asked a lot, but I'd love a video on your career and how you changed careers from teaching to recruitment. You are doing so great! You are such a great role model. Hopefully this will get easier as you get in a routine ;)
My boys are 12 and 15 and I still cried watching this! Xx
So heart breaking! I feel your pain. The look on your little ones face when she saw you is priceless!
This brought back so many memories. It brought tears to my eyes as your greeted your babies after your first work day. I hope your days get easier. Prayers for an easy transition!
Aw you did so good! You can totally see how being disciplined helps out so much. I loved seeing P's huge smile when she got home!!
Ugh I couldn't even imagine going back to work that soon! You're so strong ❤️
You did so well Bri! I really wanted to give you a big hug at the start of the video!
It is hard but I agree having a separate identity to "mum" is so important. I remember feeling awful the first time I dropped my son at daycare - I felt like I was giving him away to an orphanage! He is a thriving preschooler now and loves his mates at daycare 💗
I always love what I eat in a day videos, but this was probably my fav ever! So real, and I love that about your videos! I totally understand that first day back to work feeling, it's the worst! But like my husband says, you are superwoman and setting an amazing example for your kids. This working mama loves the realness of your channel. You got this mama!!
You're a strong woman Bri and I know you can get through this and it will just make you stronger. Keep your head up it'll all work out!
Aww I was feeling for you watching this video, it is so so hard to be away from them after youve been with them 24/7. Thanks for being real and sharing your struggles with us! Wishing you the best with this transition
I had to start back full time the same day you did. I was thinking about you! I got all emotional watching when the babies came home. I know I couldn't wait to get back home to my little girl ❤️
It's so hard. I have a 2.5 year old, and I was the same way when I went back. I'm a teacher, so my hours are great comparatively speaking. The US needs to get with the program like many European countries that get 6 months to a year maternity leave. It's really not ok. Hang in there :)
Totally just gained a new subscriber. I cried with you and cried when the kids got home. So special! And you are filled with so much love, such a great momma :) x
I was a stay at home mom for 3 years and went back to work for the summer in may and it was so hard!! But so worth it because you definitely need that time to miss your kids and let your kids miss you. I'm so grateful I was able to do that for the summer and now my last day is Saturday since my munchkin starts preschool next week! It will get easier and you will feel a bit of relief when you get more used to it! You are awesome!! And I totally envy you for being a working mom of two!! Amazing!!! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Loved this video! I'm a working Momma too, and it's nice to see Vlogs of working Moms❤
Every time you call yourself a hot mess or you're like "don't look at my hair" I'm like "whaaat?" You look great ALL THE TIME
Thank you for sharing. My son is almost five and when I went back to work he was only 6 weeks old. It's such a heart wrenching experience. Love watching your videos.
My mom always found it hard to leave but then thought about how absolutely blessed she is to be able to work and provide
You are so strong! You've got this momma!! 💕
Props to you for getting dressed and putting makeup on to work from home! LOL
This is my first time watching this. I remember going back to work after my second baby. It’s still sad 25 years later
You’re amazing and I hope things are going well with them being a little older now!
Omg, I lost it when you told P you missed her and she smiled so big!! So proud of you Brianna for being so strong! Lots of love from a mom friend in Atlanta! 💖
Made me tear up! Such an awesome mama! I want to try that tea! 🤗
Big hugs Mamma B! I remember those days all too well. You did great! 😊 And your babies are just so adorable!
Keep your head up momma! You're doing the best you can! And the fact that you work from home, you get to do everything you can at home to prepare for them to come back, dinner, clean house etc. they'll be home before you know it! But it's really a problem for us moms not to get enough months with our baby. I cried and called everyday to check up on the kids. But on another note you're sooo awesome! Keep that in mind! Xoxo
The homecoming made me cry!!! You have such a sweet family...so blessed! Hugs, Stephy
You are amazing!! I go back to work in a few weeks and I know it will be hard. Thanks for making wonderful videos!
That is exactly what mothers feel, loving their kids more than anything in the world.
Oh this made me so emotional! You're a great mama💕
Im currently on maternity leave with #2, i am so lucky that i actually am a childcare educator so my children are able to come to work with me but i still miss not being with them all day
wow that's awesome!
Omg this made me tear up. I know the feeling!!!! Hope things get easier for you ❤️❤️❤️
Thank you for being so real. This is going to be me in a few short weeks and I gather I will be much more of a mess then you were! ❤️ Thanks for being so transparent and keep on keeping on mama!
Omgggg the first 20 seconds and I'm already teary. I'm so sorry it's so hard. Leaving our little ones is always hard. ❤️
Go mama!! Just started watching your channel and love your content! Xx
You always make me smile girl! I know it's hard! You did awesome! This is going to be me when I go back to work after maternity leave.
Thanks for the tip on the tea! I will for sure be buying it! 😘
Oh noooo you made me soooob! I completely understand I never realized how hard it would be. You are not alone mama.
Definitely feel ya mama! Its hard to leave the kiddos!💕
Awwww! You poor thing! Be strong mama! I am thinking of you and sending love!
Such an inspiration your always going i don't know how you do it. Your family is adorable🙏🏻❤️😍
I cried watching! You are an amazing Mom, just know that! I can relate a lot to this too and Mom guilt is real.
P.S Thx for sharing 💖💖
I go back to work on Saturday and my son will only be 6 weeks and I'm dying inside I cried when you cried and will continue to cry all week 😭
Thinking of you and all the emotions and logistics you must be balancing. As a working mom of 2 that must go to the office, I can completely relate to all that it takes. Hugs to you!!
Oh Brianna! my heart breaks for you! Hopefully soon you'll be able to stay at home with the kids if possible! I understand you want to keep your identity but youll find balance soon!
I feel you soo much!!! When I returned back to work, I kept telling myself that this is the best for my kids right now. I've been back to work for 3 months but its still been hard for me every time I have to work.
Omg!!!! I really wish I saw your channel sooner!!!! I have a now 8 month old so I was going through exactly what you are and have gone through!
That's insane you don't get long enough with your babies that's not fair, we're so lucky in the UK we get 9 months to 1 year off maternity. Your setting such a good example to your daughter for when she's old enough to know you worked your ass off for your kids, big respect to you xxx
Canada gets the same 9 months to a year
Already crying watching your intro. I've been there mama! Thankfully I"m now blessed to be able to stay at home with my babies, but i know how leaving them breaks your mama heart. ((hugs))
Awe! You are an amazing mom! I don't have children yet, but I couldn't imagine going back to work. Praying for you in days to come
omg I went in tears seeing your vlog I go back to work in Nov and not ready to be away from my son😭
I'm back to work next week 😢and can totally relate , thanks for sharing your first day I know it's going to be hard
Cheers to you back girly!!! 🍻🍷 You did it yay!!! 🤗 I'm a stay-at-home-mom but even going grocery shopping or to an appointment by myself was hard to leave my kiddos when they were newborns/little babies. Love your video's!!! 🙂
Getting ready to do this.... I still have time, but it’s so scary! you did good!
Presley is so proud of you! All of us are! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
I am tearing up watching this! We started 2 days perk week in daycare/me back at work and even though he's 16 months old it's still so freaking hard 😭💙 I needed this tonight.
Oh my, she's the cutest little baby!
I feel for you so much! I had my first baby back in July. When I went back to work in October it was so incredibly hard 😭 everyone said it would get easier but it never really did for me. Hang in there lady!!
Hi Brianna, your videos cheered me up! I have been watched mum routine videos on TH-cam for 1.5 years since my little boy s born last year in Gold Coast, Australia , but I never think about to log in or subscribe a channel. I just followed in love your channel, you are the first channel I subscribed.
Apothic red is the best! I'm currently pregnant, so, a little jealous 😁
You are not cheesy at all ..I go through hell everyday leaving my 12 month old behind and working away from home ..I would do anything to be able to stay home with her .. 3 months was all I got to be with her ... I can just imagine how you feel now leaving 2 behind .
Aw!! This made me cry!! How hard for you and baby. I'm sure you too adjusted. I'm a sahm and can't imagine being separated.
I absolutely love that top! Where is it from?
You are so strong 😘 all the best!
Can only imagine what the day was like, I'm going back to work soon like in a month and a half and I'm like crying about it already, but we are hard working moms that have to do right!! Well honest I cried a little when Presley smiled at you when you were saying hi!! Keep up the videos you motivate me.
I'm so glad to have found your channel! I have a soon to be 1 year old and one on the way and I feel like I would be reacting the same way you did once they left the house. I can't imagine being away from my little ones. My son recently started daycare and I'm still adjusting to it all. I miss him so much throughout the day. I would rather be with him but I have some major studying I need to in order to get licensed for future work. I've been home with him for the first year and I'm so grateful for the chance to do so, however for the second one I will not be with him or her as long since I will be going back to work. Even though there is so much time left before I have to think about this (baby is not due until May 2018) I'm so worried about it and I feel sad already = (
Thanks so much for taking the time to share your experiences, especially as a momma of two. I'm so excited about becoming this as well and at the same time really nervous about it all! LOL
I feel your pain!! I had my first baby 6 weeks ago and I already cry like 3 times a week thinking about dropping him off at daycare in 6 weeks. I'm like you and worked hard to build my career and our lifestyle and know in the long run I'll be more fulfilled (at least mentally) by continuing that but man does it suck right now. So happy to see your survived!
I cried watching this! I was lucky enough to have a year off with my little guy and I'm going back to work next month. My heart is already breaking.
Aww Bri I am so sorry It's so hard being a working mom your a wonderful mother and your daughter will have some thing to look up to you for ! She will learn how to be independent and support herself just like her mom!
Loved this video so much. I'm only 19 and won't be having kids anytime soon. I've actually been told that I'm not able to have kids but your family gives me hopes and dreams ❤️
Your so pretty. Stay strong mom you are doing amazing :)
When I went back to work my grandmother watched our children too.. it's a hard thing to do but it will get easier everyday. ❤️
My heart hurts for you! But what a good mama you are 😍 Cheering you on from 🇨🇦
OMG THIS JUST BROKE MY HEART... Your an AWESOME mom and we all know how much u love ur kids, hang in there and cont to be strong.On another note thank u for sharing Momma Nursing tea with us. I was waiting to find out if u were drinking anything to help with producing more milk. Thanks and XOXO.
I hope your days are getting better! I go back to work on September 20th after being home with Nathan for 12 weeks. I am dreading that day. I am going to miss my kiddos.
Aww Hunnie my heart ached for you sending you big healing hugs always remember your a fab mama / wife / women / friend that works hard for her beautiful family of 4 / 5 🐶 X X X Karen from Bristol England 😘😘
Oh love i cried for you. Its so hard but at least you know they are well cared for and they are in a happy safe place. I hope now by the end of the week its getting easier bug hugs xx
@brianna k i feel u omg my heart is breaking into pieces.going back to work tomorrow after ML.
Brianna,
I apologize if you have already done this video, but I'm a new mom and I'm struggling with nursing friendly outfits both for weekends and at work. I'd love to see you do a video about nursing fashion.
Thanks for all your awesome content, your videos encouraged me throughout my pregnancy!
Love this kind of videos
Hi Brianna! I'm glad to know I wasn't the only one who was an emotional mess when I had to drop my son off at daycare for the first time! I love watching your videos. It makes me feel good to know I shouldn't feel guilty being a working mom! I did want to ask how you came about your work from home position? I am currently interested in finding something that allows me to work from home!
loved this video!
You are such a good momma ❤️😊
