I'll be back at work in December when DD is almost a year old.
I'd always planned to go back FT, in a role that is senior enough that I can be quite flexible.
But I feel that I've missed out so much with my mat leave being in lockdown! I'd be gutted if baby groups ect start to open up in the NY and I'm missing it all.
So I'm thinking of going back 4 days a week, perhaps for a year or so, to have another day of 'mummy' time.
But everyone I know who has done 4 days hates it, as they essentially have a full workload squeezed into 4 days.
I don't think my job could be done for 3 days a week, or with a formal and fixed compressed hours structure.
Does everyone who does 4 days struggle with this? Good experiences would be most welcome...
