Going to work full-time ??

mamastich

So me and LO are settled in my moms house and im working anywhere from 20-30hrs a week and while I make enough to pay our bills (not including child support which i dont expect anytime soon since STBXH is unemployed) I may have a possiblilty to get promoted or start working 40hrs a week. I dont have enough money for fun things or to give my mom what she deserves for the roof over my head/groceries.

Im more curious, when did you start working full time? How old was your LO? Did you feel guilty? What did you do for childcare if family wasnt a full time option and any other ideas/suggestions/things to think about.

Obviously I need to work more but I dont want to miss out on this time with my DD either. So much to think about
