[quote=Anonymous]Look for more sitters. I found my gem of a date night sitter on Care.com. Ask all your mom friends who they use. Work from home as much as possible. Be a bad mom on WFH-with-sick-kid days and put on a movie. Honestly the only way I made it work was sending my kid to daycare sick as much as possible. If she's not throwing up or so lethargic she can't function, I send her, sometimes with Tylenol. And yes I realize this perpetuates the cycle of kids getting sick at daycare. But the alternative is I'd never be able to work. Your DH is being a stone-cold jerk and making it worse, btw, and I rarely say that on this forum. It DOES get better after the first year, I promise.[/quote]
