Nothing's simple eh? We ended up with my wife dropping to four days a week (of which three in London) and having the in-laws staying over two nights a week to cover the days we were both in town. Baby went to nursery for two days a week while we each worked from home.
Fine in theory but there's nothing like having the MIL in your new house criticizing your every decision to take the shine off having a new home to do up.
Plus the little one never really took to nursery. By the time she's been abandoned for all of Monday and Tuesday, trying to drop her off with relative strangers on Weds and Thurs becomes painful. She wailed and sobbed for months and I couldn't get any work done for wanting to go back and scoop her up.
She was just starting to get better, but after a two week holiday where we spend every waking (and sleeping) hour together she had nuclear meltdown on the way to nursery this morning and my missus cracked and brought her home again.
Great pic!
