hey everyone, I've recently had a baby a few weeks ago and after having around a month off work so far I've decided I really can't stand the thought of going back and doing the job I used to do. I'm in the newborn stages and the baby keeps me up all night so I've not really got the brain power to act on anything at this moment in time but I just wanted to hear stories or advice from people that have used maternity leave to shape a different future for themselves and their family? I am hoping once everything settles a bit with the baby I'll have time to do training courses or work on a new qualification, or even set up a small business (I am a keen baker).
