do i go back to work after mat leave?

[Kirstieplus1]

As you are aware my oh cheated on me when i was pregnant as he was scared of bing a daddy (hes 35). Although we dont live together he is on the scene but we are taking things slowly.DS is now 8 months old and im meant to go back to work part time next week two days a week. I have also started college so that i can do nursing and midwifery next year at uni so i can get a better life for me and son.However do i struggle with working two days, getting unpaid work exp fr two days and college two days or not go back to work which will mean having to claim ibenefits but will get a better llife for me and son in long run? Id be £250 worse off by not going back.Thanks***

You need to do what's best for you hun but I'd be tempted to say give work a shot if you can and see how you go before ruling it out completely x

I would try & go back to work and see how it goes.
You can always review this after say a couple of months xx
