    Potential to work part-time instead of full-time

    @patrickdenton I can’t do it rn with a toddler and baby. I need to be a full time sahm for my sanity. I really want to keep an orderly home and cook nice meals each night that that takes serious work. I also feel like I need to work out to maintain the energy to do it all. But in the future, I...

    SAHM and Spouse WFH

    @toolenduso With your first baby I think it’s reasonable to expect help on breaks because you’re new to this. You should communicate your specific needs and do what works for your family. Fwiw, i’ll just describe our sitch —husband handles a TON in the morning because I’m not a morning person...

    How did you know you were ready to send you kid to preschool if they didn’t HAVE to go?

    @elinternational I sent my 2 year old to nursery when I had a baby because I knew there was so much she would get there that would be hard for me to do while caring for the baby. The school is big on outdoor time and it’s important for me that she gets outside once a day, so I love that they...

    Preschool options with new baby on the way

    @lynq This is kind of tricky. It really depends on whether you are going to be in charge of both or can get help with drop off/pick ups. We do nursery that is only a few hours and 5 days. Is it really just the two? I would lean towards the closer one so you can get baby nap time right. Fifteen...

    SAHP - what is your child duty split during off-hours?

    @freeinchrist1611 Realistically it sounds like there is a lot to pay for with prepared food and cleaners, so I might make sure he gets a break to do a good job at making the dough. In return, why not find outside help once a week to do something for yourself? Maybe an exercise class? Lots of...
