I am thinking if taking another 3 years off to look after the DCs basically due to the fact that I will be earning so little and going to considerable inconvenience to return to work whilst the DCs are so young. Including my maternity leave I woudl have had 4-5 years off by the time I go back. I work in a very specialised area. There is a chance I will be able to return to my current area but I would like to do something else. How easy is it to retrain and start again and just to get back into work in general after such a break. Its such a scary decision but I can't see how things will work out now - I have a 1.5 hour commute and will probably be earning no more than £300 per month for a 3 day week after childcare.
