I'm due with baby #2 in January, when my daughter will be almost 2.5 years old. She's been in full time daycare at a center since she was 12 weeks old, and really does well with the whole routine of daycare.

We were planning on just sending her full time while I'm out on maternity leave with #2, but now I'm wondering if we should send her part time instead.

I'll be out for about 10 weeks, and basically our options are:
1. Send her full time
2. Send her 3 full days a week (saves $100 a week)
3. Send her 5 days a week from 7am - 12pm (saves $100 a week)

Which would you have preferred / what did you do when you had #2?

Also - I should note that we pay a lot for daycare, so that $100 doesn't seem like a huge amount of money at this point. Full time is $400 and the part time options are $300.
