I like working only 3 days but I feel I miss him terribly as he is sleeping when I get up and sleeping when I get home 3 days a week.
What do you do? Im a nurse who desperately wants to become a full time mum again.

My work is office based, mon-fri with 8-4 and 9-5, 10-6 sometimes. I wanted to condense my hours just to get 1/2 day with her - but they will not budge, have to do standard 35 hrs over 5 days or reduce hours.
Unfortunately with a huge mtg (1100 a mth) and debts me and hubby can't afford for either of us to reduce hours. I am also well paid and earn more than hubby so no chance of really changing my job at the moment!
I'm waiting for the lottery win too!
