OK, so Pip's now 8.5 months. I put myself on the waiting list when I was 4 months pregnant with him, phoned up yesterday and found they forgot to move me across to the 2008 book. But luckily, there's a place available NOW for him, 3 days a week. *sighs*

So it looks like he'll be going to one childcare for 3 days a week, starting next week. I've been in tears since finding out, as I didn't want him to start childcare until March when I return to work - now is just too soon. I don't know if I'm crying cause it means I'm returning to work, or because I can't imagine a whole day at home here without him.

So we will be 3 days in the council childcare ... and then when I return to work, the other 2 days in another centre. Not sure if we should look at family daycare or ABC here ... *sighs*
