When I’m not traveling I work intermittently throughout the day. Usually 6a-6p with a few 30-60 minute breaks to do errands, go for a jog, etc.

Oh yeah that could be a little more demanding as you’ll be near working the whole time your kids awake. Well after the “I’m going to wake up every couple of hours” phase :D

And I just thought of something that we’ve used a lot to help with sleeping. An amazon echo next to the bed which we use for white noise and some kids music occasionally. It’s handy putting the wee girl to bed and “Alexa play white noise” while you’re lying her down.

And as she’s gotten older there are a bunch of kids skills on there too. We’ve been having fun in the mornings with the animal sounds skill lately. Totally worth the investment
