When DS1 was 7 months old I went back ft. We all found it very overwhelming, so within a month, DH and I had both dropped down to 4 day weeks (so that DS was only in care 3 days a week). I worked 4 days a week until DS2 was born (DS1 was 19 months), then went back 2 days a week when he was 8 months old (mostly from home). I later increased to 3 days and then went ft (not at home!) when he was about 15 months.

If at all possible I recommend starting with pt work. Ft is very full on and it certainly takes some adjusting to. All the best hun, please let me know if I can help you out with more information, tips etc.
