[quote=Anonymous] Opie I don't think you can make a decision like this until you actually have your second child. Circumstances could change dramatically between now and then, and there is a world of difference tween adding a younger sibling at age 2, age 3, age 4,  etc.  what you can do now is figure out which household tasks you find most difficult to accomplish during your time with the kids and experiment with different ways of shifting that balance (such as changing who does white between yourself and your spouse  or changing how do you tackle things like meals by doing them at different times of the day e.g. crockpot cooking or freezing meals ahead of time). A lot of this is just figuring out the best way to be a full-time working parent, which is pretty tricky  and can take some experimentation to find a system that works for your family. Once you are actually pregnant, you can start researching different AP programs, preschool programs for your older child, etc. That will give you an idea of what options are out there.   But until you can know the exact timing, and know who your firstborn is at that stage of development, it is hard to make any kind of decision. [/quote]
