to put my son in nursery when I'm not working?

[Changebagsandgladrags]

Not going back to work for 2-3 months (maybe sooner if an opening comes up). However, the nursery I want has a place now.

I can just about afford it out of my savings.However, things will be tight.

I'm thinking about putting him in 3 days a week, 9.30-2.30 and using thattime to study in the library for my exam in October.

Mum thinks IABU and I should stay at home with him. If I have this study time I might get a good grade (aiming for distinction). If I study after bedtime Iwill still pass (well hopefully pass).

Thoughts? He is 1 and 3 months btw.

I would, as others have said you'll be able to go back to work safe in the knowledge that he's happy and settled, you can get I've any separation issues without you being stressed at work following a bad drop off, also I'm sure the socialisation will do him the world of good (and you) as I'm already finding mine seems to get bored of looking at my mug all day!

Do it, enjoy it, good luck with the exams, and good luck to your DS and I bet he has a very good time there.

Well, this was a bit of a crap AIBU but I feel a bit better about it now!

I love this nursery, we tried to get DS1 but it was full.
