[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm so confused.  How are you going to have 2-4 children in a short time frame, not burdening your MIL, with a partner husband working long hours - without a nanny or daycare?[/quote]

I know OP said she's signing off this thread, but I'm also deeply curious to know the answer to this.[/quote]

+2. OP said "You might be okay with your children being raised by a nanny or daycare, but I'm not." The being so worried / wanting kids so much that she froze her eggs at 19 but is now casually pushing off TTC until mid-30s is confusing to me, but THIS is where there's just such a big disconnect that I'm truly baffled and just not understanding OP.

+3 not getting this, at all. OP?

And to your recent response: what we are taking issue with is that you have made many comments making it clear that you think what you are trying to do is exceptional or extraordinary around here. Yes your program is competitive, but many of us have both completed very strenuous competitive academic programs AND had children, so we certainly know what we're talking about and are giving you good insight. Which is allegedly what you came here seeking.

Your situation is not extraordinary, except maybe for the fact that you are getting both your career AND your family started so late. You will come to find that when it comes to babies (conceiving them, carrying them, raising them, meeting their needs on a daily basis), the reality is MUCH less cut and dry and easy pray planned out than it currently is in your mind. We all know this, and are telling you what we would do / wish we would have done if your age [/quote]
