Hello
I'm having a second baby in a few months and I wonder what I should do with his 18 months brother during the first months after the birth. As I am currently working full time, he is with a childminder and I am looking forward for my maternity leave to spend as much time as possible with him, while looking after the new baby... but I wonder how feasible this is? I would like to hear what other mums in the same case did. Did you arrange some part-time childcare (1 day a week maybe?) to have some time to rest and focus solely on the newborn? This is only for the 4 months after the birth as I will then be back at work. Thanks a lot for your help.
