I have 2 little ones (23 months and 4 months). I work twelve hour nites, but my hubby doesn't work at all. He goes to the gym m-f. I try to schedule myself one on and one off. That way, I had sleep the night before and I'll get sleep tomorrow. When I look at it that way, it isn't so hard to do. Then again I don't do anything but take care of the kids on my days off and work, my hubby does the cooking, cleaning & etc. Good Luck!
