[quote=Anonymous]I was in your position before going back to work full-time a year ago. I was probably a little resentful but I also realized that this was what I'd signed up for. I had downgraded my own career in order to be the primary caregiver, allowing my partner to turbocharge his career. When I went back to full-time, we had a big discussion about a more equitable distribution of childcare, and he agreed to step up more (it helps that he had those years of proving himself to his bosses) but I also agreed to accept outsourcing some of this stuff. So...see if your employer or your husband's offers "sick kid" benefit where they shoulder some of the burden for a nanny for a day. [/quote]
