Iv been back to work for a few months, lucky enough to have not had to work between children but now my youngest is 2 I thought it was about time. But I'm not enjoying it. I miss my children like crazy!

Its horrible if you're not enjoying work - have you thought about a career change at all, and moving into something you can do at home while the children are around? There are so many opportunities nowadays (Younique, Avon etc) that people do from home. I started working with Usborne books back in January selling their children's books (I'm not a sales person at all, but love the new challenge!). All these kinds of opportunities allow mums to spend time with their children, and are getting more and more popular as an alternative to traditional jobs, so may be worth thinking about?
