Please no judgement.
I am 24 years old, just had my second child and she is turning 8 weeks,I have my children 24/7 and do everything for them of course!
im a self employed cleaner and wanting to go back to work 4 hour Monday and 3 hours on a Friday to have a little extra cash to help out with todays prices of things and to also have that away time to creat me again!
should I feel bad for wanting to do this and leaving my baby with my daughters nan for a few hours! My baby is formula fed and is like clock work for her feeds! Should I be made to feel guilt for this decision and that it’s not normal. I just want to do what’s best for me mentally and to be able to have that little extra to get my kids treats if needed or to save for a rainy day!

So you'll leave your baby with her Granny.

Perfect solution.

It sounds absolutely fine. She is formula fed, so it’s practically fairly easy. It gives you a break and some extra money and means you can retain your existing clients. Sounds great. It’s only 7 hours a week. There are plenty of mums leaving their babies at the gym crèche to go for a yoga class that many hours a week.
