Advice needed please!
I'm going to be a first time mum in the summer, but I am the wage earner in our family and will need to go back to work when the higher rate maternity pay runs out (6wks).
HB will not be working and will do pretty much full time childcare with me doing a bit in the evenings so he can sleep. The theory is that I'll sleep at night with earplugs in so I have brains to do my job.
I know breastfeeding is a good idea but can't see how we can possibly do it with me at work all day.
Am I mad to think this is going to work? Has anybody else out there done this? Am I going to be in a fit state 6wks after?
I do realise its probably not the best for the baby but neither is having no home though not paying mortgage!
Thanks
