[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It actually gets harder. I’m assuming your kids don’t do extracurricular activities and sports yet because you did not mention rushing to practice after 2 pick ups and struggling with dinner. I had your life. DH left for work at 6am and I was responsible for both drop off and pick up plus all extracurriculars. It was hard and I had zero time for myself. Dh is a surgeon and he does make good money. I eventually stopped working and had a third child. I suggest having k child start buying lunch at school. Also have kids wear clothes for next day to bed, especially the younger one. I do this with my youngest. It is so much easier to get her to preschool.[/quote] It got a lot easier for us, but I have a super flex job and DH has a fair amount of flex too (though I WFH a lot more than him). I find the "grind" of extracurriculars etc. much easier than the baby/breastfeeding/toddler years. [/quote] Your situation is different than OP. It sounds like her DH has a flexible schedule and neither does she. She doesn’t mention either works from home. Obviously if your kids are older and you work from home, it will be easier.[/quote]
