well, i only work part time and was planning on just working till i no longer couldnt as my work isnt stressfull in the slightest however food for thought has got me thinking-
as i only work part time, mat pay isnt that much of a drop for me id prob loose around 40 pound a month, but with this drop id probably get full housing ben and coucil tax making it either the same or a little bit more in pocket?
now initually i like coming to work as it gives me a rest from having my son as he gose to play group thursday/friday and i get grown up time (even if it is at work)
but as im informed im still classed at workin for 39w on mat leave i would still be entitled to the moneys i get from tax cred ect and help towards his play group fees- thous, id be able to send him to play group and get 2 days aweek to my self.
(i havent had any time to my self since remy has been born as no one has him and he dont see his dad ect)at mo hes up 3/6 times a night taking 30/60 mins to settle bk, im a zombie
soooooooooo im really re thinking my plans
at the mo, im really really tired, im obv 6 months pregnant, just moved house, trying to settle my lil lad in to a new routine, my son is very much a mummys boy(which i love) but it means its always me 24/7, i just think it would be some thing id be silly to over look as lets face it im never going to be able to get 2 days a week to my self for a longggggggggggggg time.
hmmm what do you guys think, also i wouldNT be taking the full 12 months off after baby is born as id be board out my head, i would be looking to come bk to work when baby is 5/6 months which would fit in great, then when baby is born 3 months after that date my son get 3 hours a day a play group as he will be 3 years old, it just seems the more better choice, anyone else ad any thing like this to deal with x x x
sorry for it going agessssssss, if i over looked summat or ect plz put me straight coz it dont matter if u done it b4 things change an you forget
