[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Wow, it’s surprising to me to read all the suggestions about how to make it work; get a nanny, don’t do pick ups, don’t do bedtime. I mean, these are precious days, people? How about spending time, and bonding with the baby? I guess now I know why I don’t earn the big bucks... I’m definitely not cut for this kind of lifestyle. [/quote] Cool then go find some other thread. I do bedtimes now, as a senior associate. I couldn’t as a junior and early midlevel. So what. I have such a happy, rewarding life with my kids and the career I want. [/quote] This is why I had kids when I was an established mid-level/senior associate. I almost always made it home for bath and bedtime and would work at home as needed after 8:30/9pm. I made partner while I was on leave with my second child and now have good flexibility in terms of how I structure my day. At lot of this is timing. [/quote]
