I think that's pretty much the definition of a Mom job.

If you're working 50 hours a week at a job that is challenging and interesting and pays well and furthers your career.  That's not a "Mom job".  It's a job that happens to be held by a mom.  When you sacrifice one or more of those things, in order to spend more time with or have more flexibility for your kids, then that's a "Mom job", unless you're male, then it's a "Dad job".

Thats me and I have 5 kids but I make it work. i do work 50+ hours some weeks but I am salaried and do get overtime for anything over 40. I try to limit my hours in the office to 40 a week and anything over I work from home. In my field I can have a somewhat flexible schedule and most days work 6:30-3 or 3:30 and I am home by 4 or 4:30 other days I may have meetings and do not get home until after 6 but then i will work a shorter day the next making sure i am only in the office 40 hours in a week. Luckily I have a live in nanny who is able to be flexible with my work schedule. My kids range iN age of 4mo twins to 17 so evenings and weekends I am a hands on mom.
