I have 2 energetic toddler boys and it is exhausting I feel you! Often it feels like I’ve already worked a full day once I get home from drop off and start to log in. Is your husband unable to help with evening routines? I totally relate to how draining they can be— is it possible to hire a mothers helper of sorts if your husbands schedule makes it so he can’t help with evening routines? Or is it possible to outsource any other home tasks (like meal prep or laundry) to free up some mental capacity for you? Is there a way to move within your current company to an internal role just to give you some breathing room? FWIW, you sound like a great mom, I really feel like the system isn’t set up for working parents to thrive
Yes, meal prep sounds like a good option we could try, especially since we don’t mind repeating meals.
Evenings are harder, my husband can help, but my toddler basically refuses to do anything with him except play. We’re also going through a rough patch in our relationship, so I’ve been trying to structure life mostly around my toddler and myself without expecting and asking much of him.
I’ve thought about taking a few weeks of LOA to upgrade my skills and prepare myself, but it honestly feels kind of stupid, and I don’t think people usually do this. That said, we could manage a month of lost pay if it buys me some peace of mind and more money.
My day starts with working out at home, getting my son ready for daycare, and feeding him breakfast since he’s a picky eater and doesn’t eat breakfast at daycare. Once he leaves, I begin work.
My job itself is stressful. I work continuously until my son gets home, just take a break to cook quick lunch. Due to health conditions, I’m unable to eat out, which means all meals have to be prepared at home but I try to keep them easy. In the evenings, I cook dinner, feed my son, play with him, clean up, manage bath time, and put him to sleep—a process that often takes a long time. By the end of the day, I’m exhausted and either go straight to sleep or try to complete any remaining work/home tasks.
I haven’t changed jobs in years, so I’m somewhat behind on newer technologies and would need at least a couple of months of preparation. Given my current schedule and limited support at home, I’m struggling to figure out how to realistically find time to study and prepare for a job switch. I’m a hands-on technical consultant, and I’m hoping to move to a company that offers a healthier and more sustainable work–life balance.
Are you planning to leave your partner? Why are they not parenting?
Deloitte 1, I’ve stopped picking up after him now, basically stopped being his mom. I just do things I’m responsible for or things that directly impact me.
Following. I also have a 3 year old boy. Currently my husband is out of work and I’m the sole provider. Also the sole child care giver. My husband helps… but not as much as he should considering he’s not working. Also, considerg a divorce. Is your job manageable now? The one thing I have as a benefit is, while my work is demanding, I’ve been there long enough that if I need to move around my hours or work at odd times to offset evenings, I can usually make it happen. I do travel and that’s the part I worry about with not having my husband but I’d rather pay to have someone to help me than have him help anyway. If your husband is employed he will have to provide child support and that could help with additional child care options. Or outsourcing cleaning etc. I know everyone says it’s always 50/50 but, it’s not. As long as you document that you’re the main care giver and can show that, they’ll take that into consideration. It also sounds like your husband won’t want 50/50 if “the woman does the child rearing”
Feel free to DM me, we may be living the same life ATM.
