[quote=Anonymous]I personally think it is not just about the child but also the family set up, such as our field and your husband's field and if there is a period where one of you can ramp down or work a less intense schedule. When I had my kids my husband had a very flexible job with pretty reasonable hours, as I did. It was pretty easy to juggle kids and work. As years have gone by that has changed somewhat. I'm getting to the point where I may have to mommy-track as DH's job is ramping up. It might not always be that way though, as he plans to consult on his own in a few years possibly and have more reasonable hours again for pretty good pay, given his field. If I do step back I'm in a much better position to do something PT or freelance. So for me it will make more sense as kids are a bit older. But if we both had intense jobs at the start, I may have stepped back when they were babies.[/quote]
