[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I mean this in the kindest way, but you need to prepare for a lot less control over your schedule. Mornings with two working parents and young children are hard. [b]You will be sleep deprived, stressed, behind at work, physically uncomfortable, anxious about what your kid needs, etc[/b]. Working out will not be your priority.

Most babies are up by 6am, and one of you will need to be hands on with them until you drop at daycare. What workes best for us was as early a drop off as possible so that we could start and end our work days early too. Babies are often in bed by 7pm so you want to be home around 5pm to have enough time to eat and do your night routine.

During your maternity leave you should be able to take walks and do 20 minute home work outs pretty reliably. But once youre on the clock back at work you'll need to get creative. Lunch time is good if you dont have too many meetings around then.[/quote]

And sick.  So sick.  The first daycare winter was brutal.  [/quote]
