I'm going back...I have my own business, and I make the $$$ and carry the insurance. DH will stay home with the baby, or maybe find something part-time if he can.

Re: Whos going back to work after birth ????

I'm trying to stay out as long as possible too.

My due date is April10th but I'm having twins so that means March. I get 12 weeks FMLA then there is the summer (I'm a teacher)

Daycare for infant twins is going to beChat Icon Chat Icon I make good money... been teaching for 10 years in my district but my course load is very demanding (AP and college level). It might just be 6 or one half dozen of the other financially if I can stay out another year. My MIL will be 69 and I think watching two infants is just too much on a daily basis.

My school has taken advantage of me for far too long. It's practically impossible for them to get a sub who is anywhere near qualified to teach my courses... oh, well... that's their problem.

Re: Whos going back to work after birth ????

I am (thanks to good old Long Island house prices), but were hoping that my mom will be watching the baby for 3 weeks at a time, and then the other 3 weeks, DH will be home each day to play Mr. Mom. I'll be taking 6 weeks leave right after the birth. I'm not sure, but I think my boss might be willing to let me do 4 days a week, at least i'm hoping he is!

Re: Whos going back to work after birth ????

I will be staying at home. It will be tough.
Both sets of our parents still work full time and day care is ridiculous.
When the baby is a little older I might babysit at home to get some extra income and as soon as possible go back to work at least part time when the baby is school aged.

Re: Whos going back to work after birth ????

I am undecided if I am going to go back after 3 months (April) or wait until the next school year. It would only be 2 months more and I am going to try to save as much as I can so I can do that. That options sounds more appealing and since day care is so much both options would cost us the same amount.

Re: Whos going back to work after birth ????

Im taking off 3 to 4 months and then going back 2 days pt, I have my own business so I pretty much do what I want. I want to go back b/c I make good $$$$ and want to get out too.

I dont "have" to go back, DH wants me home but I feel getting out 2 days will be good for me!
