For 2 uger siden lavede jeg mit første job som model efter at have født min søn. Det var helt underlidt og samtidigt fantastisk at være tilbage. Min 7 uger gamle søn var med på arbejde. Top hyggeligt. Min mor havde været så sød at tage fri, så hun kunne tage med og agere ‘nanny’ for en dag. Så jeg nød ekstra meget at placere mig i makeup stolen og få ordnet hår og makeup med god samvittighed velvidende, at hun var dér til at tage junior. En tiltrængt pause fra bleskift og amning. Desværre havde hun ikke mulighed for at blive hele dagen, så min skønne kæreste havde været så sød at tage en halv fri-dag og troppede op på shootet senere på eftermiddagen. Det var fedt at have en dag tilbage i ‘den virkelige verden’ (hvis ellers man kan model-verden dét), men jeg må ærligt indrømme, at én dag var rigeligt. Alt var fuldstændig det samme, og i sidste ende savnede jeg min søn på trods af, at han var lige ved siden af hele tiden. Ligeså skønt det var at møde om morgenen og arbejde i den virkelige verden i løbet af dagen, ligeså skønt var det, at komme hjem, få min makeup af, kysse min søn og mand og vide, at jeg ikke lige foreløbig behøves at tage på arbejde igen. Sjovt så modsatrettet følelser kan være!

2 weeks ago I had my first job after given birth. My son was with me at work -7 weeks old. It was actually great fun to be back. It was great to do something else but changing diapers and breast feeding. Not that I do not love being with my son – I do !!!!! But it was the first time I could sit in a chair while someone was doing my hair and makeup…and I could do it without feeling guilty. It was fantastic! My mom was so sweet to take the day off so she was with me at work taken care of junior. Unfortunately she wasn’t able to stay the entire day so my fantastic boyfriend took half a day off as well…which is quite unusual. Normally he is pretty busy at work but I have a feeling he might sensed that it would be good for me. I think he was right. It really felt good being back in ‘the real world’ (if you can call fasion world that) for a short while. I have to admit though…that one day was more than enough….nothing had changed. It was all the same and at the end of the day I missed my son so much even though he was right there all the time. It felt great to come back home, take off my makeup and kiss junior and boyfriend knowing that I do not have to go to work again for next very long time…. funny how conflicting feelings can be!
