And — here are some of our latest threadjacks of interest – working mom questions asked by the commenters!!
- The concept of “backup care” is so stupid…
- I need tips on managing employees in BigLaw who have to leave for daycare pickup…
- I’m thinking of leaning out to spend more time with my family – how can I find the perfect job for that?
- I’m now a SAHM and my husband needs to step up…
- How can I change my thinking to better recognize some of my husband’s contributions as important, like organizing the shed?
- What are your tips to having a good weekend with kids, especially with little kids? Do you have a set routine or plan?
I could use some travel advice from the hive: I am traveling for a wedding this summer, and my daughter will be around 4 months old. We are trying to decide whether to fly first class without getting her a seat or coach and getting her a seat (the miles are the same for both options).
For those of you who have flown with infants, are there restrictions on whether the infant must stay in their seat for the duration of the flight? I remember flying with my baby sister when she was a toddler, and at that time, she had to stay in her seat and it was quite a struggle. I would like to nurse my little one for take off and landing to help with the pressure in her ears, but wasn’t sure what the regulations were now. TIA!
Experience with au pairs? For those who decided to go that route, what were the considerations? And how did you choose a placement service?
Also age of your kids?
Wondering if it might be a good idea for our infant daughter but most people I know have traditional nannies so curious to hear others experiences!
I taste metal in my mouth, I’m low grade nauseous from 8am to 10pm, and I can smell everyone’s skin.
I just needed to let that out. Note that this is not a complaint, merely an observational statement.
