Can't believe I only have 8 days left of my 14 month maternity leave :-(

Going back full time and DP will be staying at home - I am just so sad ... I want to be home with my babies :-(

Make me feel better!!

niggle I know I know I'm lucky. Although doesn't feel it! I want to be the one at home... DP got made redundant and just hasn't found a job to justify paying our childcare for 2 under 5 so is working nights in a supermarket instead.

I took 3 weeks parental leave at the start due to childminder also going on maternity leave then my full year then holiday...we have never been so skint!!!

Wait until you have had a lovely leisurely sandwich, over an hour long lunchbreak, while drinking a hot cup of tea and surfing the internet. Babies, what babies....

sympathy from me. I know some people have it much harder but that doesn't mean you have to put up and shut up ;) . course it is going to be hard for you. but like a PP says you might just even enjoy it....slightly :)

It has been okish.

But I'm not seeing my babies anywhere near enough. Tonight my eldest fell asleep at 5 because pre school is knackering her out so I havent seen her at all :( I miss my babies :(

I'm due to start full time next week. I feel really guilty. I'm just going to jam as much as I can with my daughter in the weekends and hope things get easier..
