Balancing homeschooling and career

Hi parents!

I am a mom, who is going to be dentist. I have two kids, 3 and 1 y/o.
I am really interested in homeschooling my kids.
But at the same time, I have given a lot of years and sacrifices into becoming a dentist, which I am really passionate about.

I understand the benefits of homeschooling and want the best for my kids, like any parent.

My husband works full time too. And we don’t have any other family to help with the kids.
My husband is open to any adjustments needed to homeschool our kids

I need some guidance on how to plan and manage my career along with homeschooling my kids (atleast for the initial years)

If anybody has been in the same situation, any inputs would be appreciated.
How does a typical day look like for homeschooled kids and parents?
How much commitment is required from our side?
Is it even possible to homeschool, while working as a dentist? I am open to working part time too.

Thanks in advance

IUD after vaginal births

I need some reassurance as I am getting a copper iud for the first time. I am extremely nervous about the pain and discomfort

I have had 2 vaginal deliveries, the last one being a year ago. Both of my birth were unmedicated.
I also had my Pap smear done after the baby, and i didn’t feel a thing.

My gyn has prescribed Ativan and ibuprofen for the procedure to alleviate the anxiety and potential pain

Please share your experiences if anyone has had an iud after vaginal births
Does it hurt? And how bad?

Exhausted mom

Hi mamas!

As a 32-year-old mom of two tiny tornadoes(1 and almost 3 years old), I'm running on fumes. Sleep deprivation and exhaustion have become my constant companions. I've managed to shed some of the baby weight, but I'm still a bit overweight. With the kids, it's a challenge to prioritize my nutrition, although I try to make healthy choices whenever possible. Some days are so draining that I rely on Advil to get some rest. The extreme fatigue sometimes triggers palpitations and breathlessness at night. My husband, who works overtime, is equally exhausted, and we don't have any family support to rely on. I'm reaching out to fellow moms for advice and reassurance – is this normal? Will I ever regain my health and energy? I am starting to get really worried about this! :(
