Reduced hours from home. Spouse works PT and is very engaged. Totally do-able. The years before elementary school are draining but an incredible life experience. Tiny humans are magical.
Let me know when you figure it out…I have four middle school up to starting college. I’m still exhausted and running on empty lol
I went on a reduced hours schedule
I experienced the same—it was somewhat manageable with 1 kid. Next to impossible with 2. I left big law and went in house, which helped a lot.
I went in house and we finally decided for my husband to run the house and keep everything and everyone on track. We would have been paying about the same as he was making since we have 3 kids, next year we will be empty nesters. He is 6 years older than me so he is close to retirement so he gets involved with local politics and does what he can to help the community and I support his efforts.

I started a solo practice.
It hasn’t gotten any easier for me. The best advice I can give is that when you’re working, you’re working and when you’re momming, you’re momming. Keeping them separate rather than trying to do both at once helps with the sanity. It’s not perfect but it helps.
