Returning to Work Early

Katie

So I planned to stay home 12 weeks. I haven’t worked at my job one year yet so my leave has been unpaid. My babys father has toddler twins from his previous relationship and he pays an absurd amount for daycare/child support. So we ran through our savings early (we also delivered 5 weeks early which didn’t help our savings plan). Now he’s insistent I have to return to work at 8 weeks. Money is too tight without my salary also.

Anyone going back or has gone back to work at only 8 weeks? I’m freaking out. I’m messaging nannies left and right to find one and I’m so scared. If I go back at 8 weeks, I have to return to work in only 3 weeks!!!! Help I’m so nervous and so not ready
