I have the option financially to not return back to work after my maternity leave.
I am debating whether to go back for 2 days a week for a bit of extra money although not a necessity, and for some independence etc. My LO would be with grandparents both day.
The two days I've been offered I'm not happy with as one is a full day on a Saturday meaning I would lose a family day once every two weeks.(I never worked Saturdays before Mat leave)
But then I feel like if I have the option not to really have to go back and I would desperately miss my little boy then should I take it?
So my question is has anyone taken a career break and gone back to work when their child has started school, and been successful?
My worry is if I don't go back and keep my hand in then getting back into work down the line would be more difficult.
Thanks in advance ☺️
