Good advice for going back to work

Hands down, the best advice came from my mentor at work:

"Tell DH to take the baby to daycare."

As I was struggling with the logistics of getting DD to daycare, me to work, and get something done before it was time to pump again. Thank you, Dave!

Dad gets the boy out to the bus stop every morning at 8:15. It's half a block away, you can see it from our porch, but it still counts. Less pressure on me in the morning b/c Dad's on AM duty.
So true. My husband is very helpful and i wouldn't know what to do without him!
LOL. It is amazing that we do not think of the simple things ourselves. We just do not think about having the father do things because we are used to doing them ourselves. It is also kind of a trust thing.
I think it's amazing how sometimes we will WAY inconvenience ourselves so we don't have to ask others for help...even though it's the simplest solution.
