Took my 6 week old on an 8 week road trip through the US. Mix of camping and air bnb. Great age as they can’t run away at that point!

Need more details on shots. If your 2 mo old has had 8 week shots then you should be fine, but I would consult your pediatrician. My good friend is a pediatrician and he strongly advised I not take my 8 week old on a plane, but car is a different story as there is less exposure

Yes, just make sure you are loaded with all baby stuff

Hell yeah I took my 2 month old to Scotland and London, every baby is different but you know your kid and whether they can handle it or not

But I echo the shots comment, get that done at least a week before the trip. You can get 2 month shots at 6 weeks

We did what EY1 suggested. Once shots are out of the way you’re free for adventures

Lol. No problem at all.

Thank you all!

Of course. Even week old babies do fine on trips. That’s what baby seats are for. Don’t get stressed, she will sleep all the way.

We went around the world in the first few months. Kids are fine.

We took our 7.5 week old to Europe for 10 days (3 countries/4 cities) and she loved it, so I think you’re fine with a road trip!

We’re having a baby coming this end of August. KPMG has 12 weeks parental leave. Planning to take 4 weeks in September but I can’t seem to figure out when to use 8 more weeks. I’m so tempted to do Feb-March (peak busy season for our client) but I feel completely bad cause I actually like this client/team and I know how a lot of test work is done. (Senior A.) Can I suggest to my manager that rather than taking leave, to schedule me only 40 hours during these times? Would that be unfair to others?

Ok, I’m gonna say this. Schools should open. Now hear me out. My wife is a family doctor, she is working insane hours, she is treating covid patients, and there is a lot of days when she has to stay at the hospital without coming home. My neighbour works in a local grocery store, so he has been at work since the Day 1 of lockdown. So if you need medical help, or want to eat, it’s ok for those people to be at work, but their kids have to stay home? Cont’d >>

Licensed in LA, moving to IL, Employment Agreement is with the US sub (DE) of a foreign company (Canada), where both the sub and parent are fully remote companies with 0 physical offices. Two questions: 1) Am I required by IL or DE to apply for a limited in-house license? 2) Has anyone heard of similar situations where the atty got popped for UPL? I’m in tech transactions and would not go to court in this role or represent the company outside of contract negotiations.

So, after a year of not so quietly making it known that I wanted to make the transition from the tech side to the business side I have officially been extended an offer to take on a Project Manager internally (coming from a software configurer). The client I have been assigned to has many of our products, however, the specific project I have been assigned to is a problem child and has damaged the companies relationship with the client. Any advice for a new, young PM being shoved into a problem?
