maternity leave
hi everyone
i was just wondering if anyone was thinking about going back to work or how long you had left? its starting to worry me already even though i dont have to find another job until july and im training to be floirist on and off so hopefully that will be my proper job eventually. i know ive got ages yet but i dont want to leave my babies ever!! to be honest we can afford for me not to work but i want to be independant a little bit, i know im really lucky to be able to stay at home if i want to, but i want abit of everything!
i think ive started worrying cus loads of people have asked 'when you going back to work' and 'who wil have the boys?' and all im thinking is hold on a minute just let me enjoy being a mum for the 2nd time, god people really bug me with there bloody questions. like does it matter to them when i will going to back to work.
sorry for ranting xx

I'm hoping hubby gets a deputy job tho so I can do part time again. Did pt when went back after having Alfie but started ft again this Sept so benefited from full mat pay and only actually worked 5wks!
I'm lucky that I enjoy my job lol. Love being off but will need the money and the sanity?! 30 kids in a class are easier than my own at times!!!
My oh wants to start trying for another baby in September which I have kind of agreed to as long as we only try for a short period of time so that if I was to have a second baby I would be due the end of June/ beginning of July so that he would be on his summer hols (he is a teacher) to help me with a baby and a toddler!! Would mean he would have 7 weeks summer hols and then 6 weeks paternity leave to take which would make it much easier for me.
Anyone else thinking about another baby yet or am I totally crazy?!!

As for returning to work, I'm not due back till December but have made the decision not to return to my old job as just too stressful and too far away. I'd like to work and may do part time but I am very fortunate in that I don't have to and obviously if I get pg again then I won't!
Think we need to move to Norway then only my hub'd have to teach. You're very lucky! The night school will be fine, a bit of time
off for you that you'll more than likely enjoy. x
