with DD, dp didnt have any time off, he was casual, so no work = no pay, and we couldn't afford that unfortunately! i was lucky enough to come home from hosp on a friday, so we had the weekend. i was ready to settle into a routine with dd anyways, and she was an easy baby, so i had no dramas.

i think when it comes time for this bub to arrive, he'll put in for some annual leave.. maybe a week, we'll see how we go i guess. he has been with this employer for 12 months full time, so they will be pretty understanding about the late notice of his annual leave application.
