[quote=Anonymous]You need to talk to another single mom military doc. I know one, a pediatrician (she's not actually single, but she and her husband are stationed separately and her child is with her).

She did not have her child during residency, but she did go to USUHS (at Walter Reed) for medical school and knows the area as well as the military system. And she knows what to expect in residency and beyond. She may also know someone who did exactly what you are planning to do.

I suggest this because this seems impossible to manage to me if you don't have another, live-in adult who can manage as a second parent as opposed to you managing everything with pieced-together hired help. But maybe another single mom military doc can be more encouraging, and has some ideas.

If you want to contact me, I can contact her and see if she'd be willing to talk to you. To contact me, reply to this post with an email address where I can reach you. You can make a throw-away one if you want, and I'll contact you via my real one, which I don't want to post here.[/quote]
