    Hi there,
    I recently returned to work after 7 years at home with my two sons. I am now 10 weeks pregnant (not the best timing but still exciting). I'm having difficulty transitioning from being there all the time for my kids after school to not being home until 6pm, making them dinner and then putting them to bed.
    I do enjoy getting out there and working though.
    And I have the entire 10 seasons of Friends on DVD which I watch before bed

    Hi there!

    I am currently working full-time and have since my DD Charlotte was 3.5 months old. We moved about 45 minutes from my place of work so that my parents could care for Charlotte whilst we both work full-time.

    Currently 25 weeks pregnant with 2nd baby, still working full-time but wanting to move back to where I am 2 minutes from work at the travelling it really starting to take its toll. I have booked a total of 33 weeks annual/mat leave for next bub and have negotiated to go back on part-time basis (3 days per week).

    Yes, life hectic!
