Oh Sushee I had the exact same thing happen. I didn't start till March at uni and they wanted him to start in January I wasn't ready at all.

In hindsight though it was brilliant for him. I could stay with him in the first few weeks and then give him short days to begin with. By the time I was at uni I could comfortably leave him with the childcare centre and go to uni without a worry.

Its so hard at first though...
