[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here- I'm actually a fellow, so still not on an attending  physician salary. I moonlight frequently to pay things like our old condo mortgage (one reason why we need to rent it out!) We do have a cleaner, but they come only once per month and we plan to hire a nanny once baby 3 comes. I can appreciate all that he’s sacrificed to get us here. I sometimes forget, bc he says he loves his job and is generally happy with it. I will say though, he typically travels once per week for work (this has come to a halt during COVID), so we frequently had help in the past, but we lost a lot of it with COVID (sitters moved back to their families, etc). I realize that a lot of these things are temporary and my salary will jump in a few years. But right now we are strapped financially. [/quote]

I just finished fellowship (and had my second baby during!) so I empathize with the "i'm a doc but not rolling in $$"! I think you're taking the right track by encouraging him to work out but trying to limit the ADHD related procrastination/prep time waste! And keep reminding yourself it is temporary. I'm marathon training and I time runs for either early AM or after the kids go to bed at night. I do one longer run in the AM one weekend day and my husband watches them for a few hours but otherwise I agree it would be unfair to schedule all my workout time during such a busy time of day- the dinner/cleanup/bath/bedtime few hours is really busy with little ones.[/quote]
