Going back to work after maternity leave brings a mix of emotions. Sadness, separation, guilt, overwhelm and the feeling of being pulled in every direction are common emotions.

They offer reassurance to mums, remind them that this difficult season does get easier, and discuss Irma’s Blues Rescue as a gentle, non-drowsy and non-addictive support option.
