[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP is it feasible to pay for more childcare help with DC? Either more of a full day program or a part time nanny or something? It sounds like you working part time and being nearly full time at home with DC is a lot. It also sounds like your DH is stressed with the demands of his schedule and may genuinely need more of a break. While he's not caring for a kid while he's at work, his time at work really isn't a true break. I don't really know what to suggest beyond paying for more childcare support so that you can ease your burden and maybe find a way to support DH having some breaks. [/quote] OP here. Well we tried a babysitter one afternoon a week for a few months but she was so flaky and unreliable it wasn't worth it. And this was an adult woman who should have been more reliable. I suppose I can look for a mother's helper to play with DC one or two afternoons a week so that I can take over more of the evenings to give DH his desired 2 hours a day of free time.[/quote]
