hubby going part time instead
Well as the title suggests, this is the conclusion we have come to, just not sure how I feel about it, had always assumed I would be off a day or two a week until she started school (
My work are such arses though, and can't say a day for sure until mid June, which makes nursery nigh on impossible to arrange, particularly for getting her into the one that is fab, ( there are 2 alternatives but in my Husbands words " mediocre and just don't feel right") so she is going there 2 days from Sept.
This way we will loose less money with CTC etc and still be able to get childcare vouchers, and my dad thinks its the best idea ever and he is really jealous, but I suppose we are going to have to make the weekends even more worthwhile now!
As ever when I type on here it clears my head and I talk myself round to a positive way for looking at things! So glad that this board is here for my occasional vents!
Hope all and babies are fine and well
love Bets XxX

My hubby would also be very jealous...... but he will be looking after her while I am at work, we are lucky that I am able to work around him.
The time you have at home will be very precious and you'll enjoy every minute! Just think of the smile on your lil ones face when you get home....

My hubby works 12 hour shifts so does 4 on then 4 days off so he'll be sharing childcare depending on his days off. My mam and Dad are both retired so I'm very lucky to have no child care issues.
I was sooooo worried to go back to work but after going back one day per week for now, I remember what it's like to be me again. This sounds really horrible and like a bad mother but I'm not sure I could give it up completely as I think it's good to have something in your life that's 'yours'. My kids do come first but I know they're looked after and so will yours so good for you.
I'm sure you'll have some fab weekends and school holidays!
