I've been off on maternity leave for almost a year. My DD is now 11 months old and after having a flexible working appeal rejected at my previous job : ( I have now just found a new one. I'll be doing 3 days a week in a months time - aaaargh!
Does anyone have any tips on how to prepare for this?
Is it worth trying to get DD onto a similar schedule as the nursery she'll be at? How on earth do I get us both ready to leave the house by 8am?
How on earth will my fuzzy brain pick up a brand new job I feel very under qualified for?
Will my new employers get really mad when I no doubt have to take off loads of time at no notice because DD has picked up her umpteenth cold from nursery?
Do I need to start getting DD used to not being rocked for an hour to get her to nap?! and to eat her lunch in less than an hour?!
Any tips gratefully received - slightly panicking now!
