[quote=Anonymous]I totally relate. I have a two year old. I am pregnant. I changed to a nonstressful 40 hr gov job with no weekend work. My DH helps out a lot. But I have almost zero social life. I am already 38. I just try to live another day, hang in there. It occurred to me this might be all. Despite having excelled in many things, esp. in academics (with an ivy league law degree), I'm just going to be an anonymous widget maker in the fed gov and leave two children behind when I die. I have no energy or drive anymore to excel at work. I am tired all the time. I love my kid and I love being a mom. But I'm guessing it's only going to get harder when baby #2 comes. Twenty years of caring for kids, then another decade of work, then it will be all about illnesses due to old age. I am not ambitious but I have days I feel blue wondering if this is all there will be to my life. [/quote]
