I recently got a new job that is a huge step in my career. The onboarding; however, requires overnight travel. 9 nights total spread over the course of 9 weeks. The guilt is all consuming. This is my first child and I don’t want to be a bad mom. My husband would be looking after him and is able to come on one of the trips which will help but I don’t want to disturb breastfeeding and/or our bond. I know I’ll be pumping while I’m away and I already have built up a stash but I’m more worried about the emotional aspect. I would love to hear if anyone has experienced this.
