See here's my dilemma....I'm going to be 30 in March next year. I want to have a baby that year because there is a long line of girls in our family that are 10 years apart and I want it to continue. Next year we have a 60, 50, 40, 30, 20, and 10. However, I want to either go to Ayers Rock or Fiji for my birthday (before Darcy's 2 and costs to fly) and so don't want to be so pregnant I can't travel, but I don't know that I can wait until Nov/Dec to TTC. So I'm hoping either march/april - I THINK. Then there's the dramas Cam and I have been having and that puts me off. And right ATM I couldn't care if Darcy was an only child, I just love being with her, but I really don't think I want that.... Hopefully going back to work will make the weeks fly and it will be October before I know it and I won't have my dilemma....
Alison- I know exactly how you feel. Whilst I love my job I would prefer to be off longer but DH's wage is nearly half mine so we can't. Also he seems to resent me being at home while he works, like I'm getting some bludging holiday while he slaves. (We just had a bit of a fight so I'm not feeling too charitable atm) I do envy you having Yr 5/6 thats my dream and I am stuck with year 1! At least I can job share.
Kim- I taught in NT for a year, my qualifications from NSW were recognised there but not that fact that in NSW and were on the top of the pay scale you got paid as if you had a degree even if you didn't- I dropped $9000 a year, also their pay was less but this was 1999. Things have changed a bit up there but if you ever wanted to go to NT to teach I still have some contacts.
Lea- Hope everything is OK.
It sounds like a few of us are going back to work this week, its sad isn't it? I am feeling very teary about leaving Riley, he seems too young.
My mind has gone blank about anything else I was going to write! Widdly- I hope you haven't been overwhelmed with info about age gaps LOL, I tell you having a baby and a 15 yr old can be very very handy!!!
Leanne hope you are feeling better.
Can't remember who said their baby had no teeth and couldn't crawl but bless you for saying that cause Riley is the same and I was feeling a bit paranoid LOL
