[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My cousin gave birth about six months after she finished residency and six months before she started her fellowship. Before the baby was born and after residency was over, she worked part time at a clinic as an internal medicine doctor and quit when the baby was born. I think she had to have that in between year regardless because she was her spouse was finishing up a fellowship that year and her fellowship was in another city. So then they moved and she started her fellowship and the first three months of her fellowship, he was at home with the baby. Moving, buying a new house, starting new jobs, and having a new baby all seemed very stressful to me at the time. But in retrospect, they both got to spend a lot of time with the baby -  my cousin spent about seven months with the baby and her husband three or so so the barely as nearly a year old before they needed day care. They seem the most bonded to the oldest child. The others they had in the rush of both of them working as post-fellowship doctors at a hospital - does that mean attendings? and the other kids did not seem to get as much attention.[/quote]

Now, that I think about it, she had her second child a couple months after she finished fellowship. So she timed it really well, I think.[/quote]
