[quote=Anonymous]I haven't read all the responses, but as a lawyer mom who's been in private practice for a long time I think you need to lateral to another firm. Perhaps finding a niche in your practice area that is less demanding? But there are firms, even in big law, where you'll have more understanding partners and fellow associates not gunning for you because they see a new mom as an easy target. You just have to find a better fit. Also, you are in the worst of it now with the sleep deprivation and needy baby stage. It will be easier to find balance as the baby gets older, though never the same![/quote]
