I'm Currently Feeling:  | Not going back....
I know it's early days but I've told work today that I am unsure as to whether I will be returning to work. I don't think it was the wrong decision but at the same time I'm thinking maybe I should have left it a bit longer............
What do you think?
I'm also thinking during the time I won't be working (about 5 yrs) that I can train to actually go into a job I'll enjoy once bubs starts school. I was thinking something to do with History but couldn't think of anything job wise that History would help with.
Neway I'll stop rambling now. Hope you are all well + bumps.

I'm Currently Feeling:  | I had a full-time job early on in my pregnancy that was extremely high stress and long hours, I quit it and am now doing temp work. Works out quite well for me actually, brings in a little extra cash but also allows me to have a few days off every week.
As for the history degree, I majored in history in University!! I love the subject, although I do know what you mean about jobs within the field, they aren't the best paying jobs out there but at least you'd be doing something you loved. |

I'm Currently Feeling: | Until my tenancy's up in April, I can't afford to go temping although I didn't think about it. I wouldn't be starting my maternity leave until end May/June time.....but how does temping effect your SMP??
Well at the moment I don't have a history qualification of any sort but I thought it's something I could do whilst I'm off with bubs and at the same time train for a new job but I'm just unsure as to what I'd do.......

I may have to do that but I'm worried that they won't take me on because of the pregnancy |
