[quote=Anonymous]OP, our DC is older but when he was a toddler stage sick days were hard. My DH is like yours brings in most of the $ and I am at a job that I love that doesn't pay well. But what I realized was that I had to make the work adjustment as we could not survive without DH income and we both couldn't claim inflexible jobs. So I went part-time for a couple of years until he got to elementary and then made switch to full time. The key is to have flexibility to take days off. I would also consider going SAHM if you can easily go back to your job after a small gap. Its not paying well so you are not losing much income anyway. Its a short period in your lives and your marriage is most important for your family.[/quote]
