[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes, I agree good sleep is the key to everything! Unfortunately my travel is non negotiable and if I give up the AWS I think I'll just end up working longer hours overall anyway due to my work culture. We already outsource a lot and are not neat freaks... Basically everything people say you stop paying attention to with #2 we are already lax on. The one area we could do much better is planning and organization... I am also having trouble believing that two is eventially/possibly easier logistically than one but hearing about older siblings playing together is really reassuring.[/quote]

OP, I hear you on not wanting to give up AWS.  After I came back from maternity leave I did 6:30-3 because I wanted to lessen my commute and I figured it would give me so much time with the babies in the afternoon, but I NEVER got out of there at 3 because everyone else was more 9-5:30 or 10-6:30, and it was just impossible to leave that early.  I ended up leaving that job for different reasons after several months, but I can appreciate not wanting to give up your AWS because you likely will end up working longer days.  I would love to have an AWS day now, but my work doesn't do it (not government now), so I wouldn't give that up if I were you.  [/quote]
