[quote=Anonymous]OMG  I feel for you--big law sucks for moms, especially if you have a typical DH who cannot seem to learn how to take care of house and babies.  As if that takes two XX chromosomes.   This will get better, but not soon.  COVID will last more than another year, and your kids will not be in full time school for years.  DO get screened for PPD, as others have suggested.   I had a toddler when I gave birth to twins and wound up with an overwhelming household situation (and i was sahm)  and then PPD when twins were about ten weeks old.   Solved those shortterm problems with money by buying help--baby nurse for ten weeks, and eventually au pairs.  Also weekly housecleaner.

I did big law three times before I had kids--in NY, LA, and DC.  IMHO, its no way to live.  Unless you have a more or less "traditional wife"  who takes care of your life.

sorry for your angst.  Wish I knew you since I would come take care of babies while you went to a spa or something.  my three are teenagers-- and somehow as of this week they are all back at school, in person![/quote]
