[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So sorry OP. No judgment here. Do what you need to to get through the day.

And have a discussion with your DH. He needs to find a way to help, even if that means he wakes up super early to work or works long after the kids are in bed. Being a lawyer and having a big case load is no excuse. He needs to mange his time better so that he can help with the kids and give you a break.

Op here - I think the last two weeks were just especially difficult. He was already waking up early (4:30-5am) and going to bed late (10-11pm). He had an oral argument, a deposition, a webinar and his regular work all in the span of like 10 days. I am hoping it slows down sometime soon but it seems that he is taking on more and more but others in his group aren’t/can’t. Probably because I do everything. [/quote]

Then he needs to stop being the hero at your expense.  My husband and I are both trying to be realistic about juggling our work and telling people no when we need to.  We haven't had our nanny in two weeks and we have two kids at home.  It's not easy but sometimes you just have to say you can't do something.  These are extraordinary circumstances.  He needs to be prioritizing you and not his work.[/quote]
