Can someone please help me

[Rosebel]

Try to keep it short. I have a job that I hate but it does fit in pretty well with my DHs job and I only work 3 mornings a wpeek.
I would really like to change jobs and have been applying for other jobs.
Now I'm not sure. My son has been referred for physiotherapy, speech and language therapy, audiology, scans for his hips and thyroid.
Am I really going to be able change jobs and work full time as my DH is also working full time?
My thinking is there's no way I can change jobs or is there? Has anyone managed to work full time while dealing with a child with that many appointments coming up.
YABU =you can't work full time and manage the appointments
YANBU =you can work full time and manage the appointments
Hopefully voting makes sense

In my case no. I manage 3 long days as need 2 days for appointments.

YABU, i would think given the situation you'll find it difficult to work full time, unless you find some thing that works late shifts and maybe includes the weekends in order to free up days in the week / mornings to fit the appointments in.

If you’re going to work full time you will need to agree to split the appointments/holidays 50:50, unless DH wants to go PT ?

Could you do something on a zero hours or temp or 'bank' basis, so you choose the shifts that suit you? Depends what you do.

Thanks. I did think it would probably not work but was hoping someone would have a 'magic' solution.
DH can't really afford to go part time and although he's suggested using A/L to cover the appointments that's obviously not going to work long term.
I was really hoping to go full-time with rising costs but obviously my son comes first. I don't think zero hours would work as I need childcare for when I'm working.

Full time might work for the right job and employer. Depending on your circumstances it isn't impossible. It will be hard and tiring though. Something less than full time but more than three mornings might offer a better work life balance.

Do you know how often each appointment will be? Once you have a better idea of that then you can see what would be sensible options.

Definitely change from the job you hate though. Even if it's not more money you could find something you enjoy more or that will allow you to develop your career for when your son is older.

I'd see how things go. You could look for another part time job but similar hours. Depends how much you dislike it but it's hard to ask for time off in a new role. I wouldn't be trying to go full time unless u are desperate until you know where you stand with dc.

I would think FT would be hard but you could probably manage more than three morning, especially if you have wfh and flexible hours.
