[quote=Anonymous]When my child was a toddler/preschooler, DH was on extended travel outside the country. He was gone for several months at a time for a period of 2 years. There is no local family and, at the time, we hadn't been in the area long enough to have much of a network. I was a SAHM. We outsourced yard work, had a weekly cleaner and I had a sitter 2 afternoons a week. In hindsight, that was fairly minimal and I could have used more time for myself before he hit preschool. Once preschool started, I gained a little bit more time for myself and also got to know other parents. It was still just me 24/7 for long stretches of time, but we made it work. Get the help you need. Your sanity and well-being is worth it. [/quote]
