My Spouse at big 4 as well. We somehow make it work with travel, and a 2 year old at home with no additional help. I'm beginning to see this impacting the career negatively. Anyone else in same boat?

Your first concern should be on how it is negatively impacting your 2 year old

Hence the question.

How does anyone else manage? It is obviously impacting the kid. We r immigrants and it isnt very easy to get a job. Not many employers out there who sponsor immigration.

We will probably head back.

How do u manage

Good lord how do you do that

How about 1 parent works in consulting while the other gets something else outside that allows them to take care of the baby. Not sure where you’re from but it might make sense financially

Working on it..been challenging to get a job

A long post: seeking some perspective. My husband of 2 years that I’ve been in a relationship with for more than 8 years just woke up one day and told me that he’s unhappy in our relationship. I’m devastated because he’s never expressed anything like this in the 8 years. He’s been super supportive and loving, even when we were in a long distance relationship. He supported my career and dreams and this just doesn’t make sense. We have gotten a counselor but things aren’t getting better. Comment>
