[quote=Anonymous]I work FT for the feds; DH works FT in the private sector. We haven't made long-term changes in the way we work, though we have asked for family support for specific periods of time. Example: - When DD was born, my mom and his mom switched off to provide FT childcare from the time I went back to work (3 months postpartum) until she started daycare at 10 months. It will be important to my career to take one of several 12-month rotations in the next 3-4 years. These rotations involve long (12-14 hour) days, so we have already started talking to our parents about whether they could provide childcare help. They were more than willing, so hopefully they'll remain in good health. We're very lucky to have relatively healthy parents who are willing to help us out. [/quote]
