We decided that I would have a year off work even before I was pregnant. We knew that towards the end it would be tight but are living within our budget. I’m due back to work part-time in August but it’s definitely been worth it. The only thing that set us back were the unexpected’s such as having to replace our fridge/freezer, tumble dryer, car and a water leak that we had around Christmas!
So for any mums-to-be make sure that you have a little stash for emergencies!
I have your book and have referred back to it many times. We’ve sold quite a few bits and pieces on ebay and through classifieds to bring in some extra cash for family treats.
I knew I wanted to go back to work but I knew it had to fit around my children and that would mean earning a lot less money. We have had to budget but because I did not know when I would get working again I saved some money to prepare me for a possible long break.
