[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here, posting an update in case anyone is interested.  I always wonder how these things pan out for other posters beyond their immediate decision just to have a data point on whether things worked out or if it was a disaster, even if it’s anecdotal.

Full WFH was a game changer - it made everything much more manageable and I’ve spent the last year+ much happier.  Highly recommend asking for it if you are feeling overwhelmed, although I think I did hit a sweet spot as far as employee negotiating power goes. I’m about to go on maternity leave with my second child, but am planning on returning after leave.  We kept our first child in daycare but are looking for a nanny now - older kid will be in full time PK3 starting in the fall, so mostly will be for the new baby. My husband’s income doubled last year which was a nice surprise and takes some pressure off about making a bad financial decision by quitting, but it is still highly variable so we’re just kind of keeping the status quo for now and seeing how things go.  Long story short, I could definitely still see myself quitting in the next few years, but overall I’m glad I didn’t quit last year at my low point.  Thanks for everyone’s advice/thoughts back then![/quote]

Sounds fantastic! Thanks for the update.[/quote]
