Did you return to work after 2 children?

[Harriet428]

Just this..

Yes. And after the third as welll

Worked when I had my 1st and worked after my 2nd.

Yes, I've been back a month. Eldest is a bit over 2 and the other is 1.

I did when my youngest started school.

Part time after both children

Yep, full time. Single parent to 2 DC

Yes. I went back full time after first child, and then after second child I went back part time 3 days a week and then went full time.

Yes

Part time after second

Yes, both full time and part time and sahm in the years up to dc2 being 6 but it's no picnic - why do you ask @Harriet428 ?

Yes but I am currently working from home with the 3rd age 3.

Yes even when I had four under 7.

Yes, both children i went back full time, just took maternity leave

Yes. Two under 3 in nursery was an expensive time! Worth it though.

Yes once the 15 free hours kicked in for my youngest. Then it meant I only had to pay for 4 hours childcare per day and then Afterschool for the eldest.

God yes. When DS1 was 2 years ten months and DS2 five months.
Twenty years on it was the best decision ever, despite 'working for nothing' due to childcare fees for a long time.

Yes. Took a career break after DC3 because I’m lucky it’s offered by my employer (unpaid but guaranteed to have my job back after) but once that’s up I’ll be back full time with 3 kids

Three children here. Returned full time.

Op are you going to come back, unlike your other posts.

I did. My husband stayed at home instead though I earn more.

Literally never occurred to me to even consider anything else.

No, didn't go back after my first or second. I was a SAHM until my youngest stated school, went back briefly then Covid brought it to a halt for a while, back working now though. I loved being at home with them and work around school hours now.

Yes, part- when youngest DC was 8 months, full-time when he reached 7.

Part time (2 days) after both, will do the same after this one too. Plan to increase to 5 days (during the day) when all are in nursery or school

Yes. 3 kids here under 5 but still work part time. It keeps me sane!
