hi, both my husband and I are full time working. we send our 2 year old to childcare and plan to send our newborn (1 week old) to infant care once I go back to work. my husband and I split chores and we have routine, routine, routine.
sleep trained elder daughter and plan to for younger. this helps us to 'regain our nights'. helps to have this time for husband and I to have 'me time and couple time'.
my husband cooks dinner 3-4 times a week. leaving me to be able to play and hang out with the elder one while the younger snoozes. we timed breastfeeding and naps to optimize time with each child.
not easy, and I'm mentally prepared that the schedule will keep evolving as the younger one reduces sleep needs.
teaching elder daughter to be as independent as possible helps.
good luck!
