Thank you so much for your advice I really appreciate it, its not easy being a Mum at all (hardest job I've ever had!) but I guess you can only do your best. My Mum also worked full time when I was a child and I felt I benefited from having someone else there like a friend for me.

I think the mistake I made was having him at home with me when baby was born, although he went to playgroup twice a week in the morning but I think the change in his routine probably didn't help. Its also made our daughter very dependant on him, she'll be lost when he goes to School!

Thanks again and good luck Amanda when you go back to work.
