Lovely DP and lovely DSD. He only has 4 weeks annual leave every year, I have 5. He's asking me to take two of my 5 to look after DSD, he will be using all 4 of his for school holidays. Totally fine, I knew this from the start. I'm due to be on maternity leave from September and will be taking a year so we don't really have to worry about this year as I'll be around to have her. She's only 6 but very excited for baby and I'm sure she'll be a great help (in between being a pain in the arse!) - my question? How do you sort out your leave to cover all of the school holidays and still have a little bit of time to yourself (even if it's just a weekend!)? Asking re having a little one too as well as DSD. Is time to yourself a thing of the past? We don't have much family nearby but would love a week/weekend away to ourselves occasionally!
