Tips for fair schedule/care duties for two working parents
Post Body

My partner and I have had a great system while we have both been on leave from work to acre for our little one. We essentially both take a 6-7 hour shift at night so the other can sleep, and alternare 2 hour shifts during the day.

We will both be going back to work soon. He will be going back first, and I don't want to be "on duty" 24/7 and getting zero sleep while he is kind of always off the clock and gets a solid chunk of uninterrupted sleep, as this seems like a slippery slope to a really unfair distribution of work and a whole lot of resentment. I want to try to start working towards a long-term routine.

LO is not sleeping through the night yet. How have you guys split sleep/care duties fairly with your partner when you both work?

We will be taking LO to daycare once we are both back at work.
