I didn't return to work but I did return to study when my first two were both 6 weeks old. I only took one subject so I was gone for 4 hours, one day a week. I needed to because looking back, I had my first two before I was really emotionally ready to so I was trying to keep in touch with former life and career

I wasn't interested in doing any kind of study or work when the 2nd two were newborn though and I actually knocked back a job offer so that I could stay home with #3 a bit longer. Then #4 came along...
