@eric1844 My husband is an attorney and I work in a science lab. I go to work at 5:30/6am and pick her up around 4pm and I do dinner and bed. Sometimes my husband is home in time, most times he is not. Like tonight, its 10pm and he is still at work. My husband does mornings and drop off with...

@mynameishephzibah My baby is getting over the trifecta of bacterial, viral, and fungal infections! Ear infection, upper respiratory infection (not Covid or RSV thankfully) and a fungal butt rash thanks to the antibiotics from the ear infection! Poor baby. But he’s smiley! And as per usual, he...

@perfectlove25 We are doing this now (9 week old). I go to bed around 9 (I phone for a bit), husband stays up with baby and they both fall asleep downstairs. Husband does the first feed usually and they both fall back asleep. Second wake is like between 2-4am and he brings baby up to me to...

@graced1257 Ours will be just about 3 months, and we have a 2.5 year old. We usually go to my in-laws 4 hours away. We will probably not go this year, just too much effort and too much stuff to pack. It'll take like a day to organize and pack everything needed, and the just as much time to...

@ztalbott I am one of two and my brother and I are really close, even if we live across the country from each other. We are stopping at 2 - we can provide more for them than we could provide for 3+ kids in terms of financial things. They could do more extracurriculars since each parent can...

@striveforclarity We did shifts. Husband would do 9pm-2amish and then I’d take over. He slept downstairs either baby and then when he needed to eat around 2am brought him to me. Husband feed him formula during his shift. That way we each got a solid chunk of sleep. With our first we’d both...

@1stjohn0666 Our parents are 4-6 hours away, my brother is on the other side of the country (US). We do long weekends to visit in-laws, so maybe stay 2 nights. We do this a few times a year. I haven’t been home since Xmas 2021, my parents come to me - my mom comes a lot (retired), my dad maybe...

@qity I can relate. Went on vacation with a 2 year old. Never again, unless it’s with my parents (very accommodating), not with the in-laws until kids are like…5 and older.

@loveallandbeloved We went on vacation to the beach and I was going to have one afternoon by myself at the house. Husband and toddler came back after an hour cause she just cried for me the whole time. 😑 love her, but man I just wanted to drink tea and read my book!

@loveallandbeloved Ah, the logistics and mental load many don’t think about. Everyone’s like, it’ll be fun! I have a dead stare while going thru everything that needs to be done and gave an internal freak out.

@cbmiller I was just in my diaper and bandage for the whole day after my c-section and threw up four times. No one needs to see that.
