Well some of you may remember a while ago on HB I posted about sending Molly to nursery for an extra day a week (she currently goes 2 days). I was really struggling at the time, and felt that she would be better off having proper stimulation rather than a knackered down Mummy. I was having major guilt issues - and they're back :rolleyes:
Anyway, when I asked they didn't have any space, and actually things have improved a lot. The nice weather has helped because she can play in the garden, and I don't have to go somewhere for her to get exercise, and also having DH at home for 2 weeks over Easter gave me a bit of a break .
We have had a few problems with continuity, in that she goes on a Monday and Wednesday, and with all the bank holidays she hasn't been much lately. Plus Weds to Mon is quite a long time, and although she is happy as larry when we get there, she never wants to go.
DH feels that both she and I would benefit from her being on a Friday, and asked again last week. They said that they might have space in July, but told me they had space immediately today.
I was totally caught off guard, and kind of said I would speak to DH about it.
I know it makes sense really as I approach the last few weeks of pregnancy, and with a newborn it would give me more time, and also her some stimulation which she might not otherwise get, I just feel really guilty about it.
I s'pose I'm just looking for reassurance really before I say yes.
Needy, emotional and pregnant - moi? :oops:
