[quote=Anonymous]Is there any chance that one of the grandparents could come to assist for a few months, to at least get through the winter? Your message reminds me so much of my situation 10 years ago, and it was such a hard time of life in general. (And I had a totally supportive and involved DH, and a wonderful nanny who could take the kids to appointments.) DH needs to either (a) make more money so that you can SAH; or (b) help more at home. If you have any way of having a grandparent come, that could really help. It is SO stressful when the kids get sick -- I truly sympathize, as I was there myself 10 years ago. I often feel guilty knowing how hard those years were, and I hope that, for my own kids, they can one day have a SAH parent so that this type of stress is not there. It just does not seem worth it to have 2 parents both working when you are always so stressed that a kid will get sick.[/quote]
