I was the same when I returned to work. I was working a desk job and was able to go in for only a few hours each day. I was leaving him with MIL and he loved it. I could express at work and leave that MIL. I wasn't back at that job long (long story). I was out of work for about a year and I decided to get a different job. Now I work in a nursing home. MIL would take care of DS for times between when I started (230pm) and when DH got home (6pm). Now she has a job and I decided to go to uni (as well as work). I transitioned DS into daycare. He loves it. I feel so guilty if I don't have to be at work/uni and he's over at daycare (it's in the same street, so sometimes I can hear him playing and having fun), but he loves it.
Your daughter will adjust, DH will adjust. Everything will work out. I second the transition. Can you start leaving her with DH for a bit during the hours you will be working?
