@katrina2017 I'm self-employed and didn't even tell my clients I was pregnant with twins. I was sending emails a few hours after my c-section. I was in the hospital for five days for pre-eclampsia and was writing marketing content during my middle of the night pumps my first week at home. It's doable. It was hell. But doable. When people ask, how do people make it work? This is how. They work their asses off to the detriment of life and health, but that's what it takes when you grew up poor and want to claw your way into the middle class, I guess. Welcome to America.
