[quote=Anonymous]We got married right before I started at a big law firm. Due to a family history of fertility issues, we weren't comfortable waiting until after I'd hopefully made partner to start having kids because I would have been in my late 30s at that point. We waited until I was a mid-level associate -- enough years under my belt to have already built relationships, credibility, good will, etc., but not so close to being considered for partnership that an interrupted year might derail me. In the ended I decided to leave big law after having kids, but I'm still happy with the timing of our decision.[/quote]
