Hi there. Any advice on this would be greatly appreciated. I am new on here and I am a new grad RN working on a progressive care floor night shift. I work 3 12 hour nights a week, my husband who is a restaurant manager works all kinds of crazy hours and I have a 3 year old that I do have day care for. Something that is a little stressful is making my husband work around my schedule so that someone is at home with my daughter at night. She is in day care during the week, but if I need to work a night shift and they need my husband to work that night that wouldn't work because someone needs to be here at night. Anyway, so far this is what we have been doing and I hate it. We work opposite schedules, don't get to see each other, I don't get time with my daughter, and I can't really afford a nanny or another baby sitter. Anyone in this same situation, are you doing anything differently or doing anything to schedule time blocks to spend time with family if there is time? Please help :).
