Do you expect that the older child will take at least a few days off after the birth?
I was shocked when I received an email that dcm had her baby (early) last night, and then a few hours later, an email saying dcg would be in today.
They have family up visiting because it coincidentally happens to be the same weekend as dcg's birthday-the timing couldn't have worked out better to have a baby since everyone was already in town.
I could see if they had no back-up or support, but...
I know, people will say it's important to keep dcg on a routine, and gma probably wanted the day to herself to spend with the new baby, right?
But, this poor child never misses a day, and I even stopped charging in an attempt to get them to keep her home more often.
Also, they gave me a ton of crap when I had my baby about 2 weeks being far too much time for them to find coverage, and I worked until the day I gave birth at 41 weeks...
Is it typical for kids to come back to daycare as soon as possible after a new baby?
