Do you have to return to the same job? I would weigh your pros and cons for returning to this job and what it's going to cost for food, clothes, gas, extra gas to take baby where you need to and time compared to just staying home and cutting costs at home or even just working a part time job in the evening after your hubby comes home, that way at least one of you will always be with your baby. Or do you have a relative that could sit for you for just 5 hours a day while you worked?
I know it's hard when you have a baby, you just don't want to leave them. I don't work and it's financially challenging. We really don't have extra but our bills are paid and we have good food on the table. And most importantly, all of us are happy. When he goes to school, then I will work while he's in school.
Have a chat with your hubby and take it from there. Best wishes. ↑ |
Hey Logan!! I am going through the same thing as you!! My work just called me and asked if i wanted to start a new position! Its where i was working before i went on maternity leave (i am back at work now and mum looks after bubs) but its night shift and i dunno if i can do it coz i dont wnat to be tired when i get home for my baby. I wish i didnt have to work becasue i want to be with her all day everyday!.
on the plus side being back at work gives you a little bit of normality back into your life. It gives you a break to if that makes any sense. The first few months are really hard, but it makes you more grateful to see your babies face when you get home. Its something you have to think about carefully..if you dont have to go backto work that soon..dont, but if you do, trust me in time you will be fine. Nerves are only natural.. odd hours do suck though! ↑ |
Hi girls, well my mom will baby sit for me whenever she can, then again she goes on vacation for long periods of time to her other house out of the state of OHio therefore I feel that when that time comes I need to find someone to take care of him while she is away, that is a pain in the butt becuase now a days you can't trust just anyone. Scary what people do to babies, even relatives. So I would like to find a part time job were I only work about 3 days a week, I think I can do that. My husband works 2pm-10pm so it will have to be something during the morning were he can be with him while I am working. Just hate the thought of going back to work and my nerves are out of control.............. I go back in December... Dear lord help me!!! :o/ ↑ |
