But the other night, on call, I was really hurting and wanting to take some time off with the little one. I think I'll be able to do that more in May. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-less-into-your-careerwork-since-having-a-kid#post-132251 Fri, 20 Apr 2012 15:33:02 +0000 itsmejules 132251@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Im much more productive at work, but I also feel that its just a job. Just a means to providing for my family. Once 5pm rolls around, I mentally (and physically) check out of work. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-less-into-your-careerwork-since-having-a-kid#post-132102 Fri, 20 Apr 2012 13:52:10 +0000 Meridian 132102@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I definitely wonder how I will feel after I have a kid! </p> <p>I have my own business, so it has been my "baby" for the last 4 years. I don't know what will happen if I don't have the same amount of energy or dedication. Scary!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-less-into-your-careerwork-since-having-a-kid#post-131985 Fri, 20 Apr 2012 12:45:54 +0000 ohapostrophe 131985@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Way less into work now for sure. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-less-into-your-careerwork-since-having-a-kid#post-131981 Fri, 20 Apr 2012 12:44:05 +0000 Mrs. Sunglasses 131981@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Actually yes and no.

It's not a choice, it's fact. Like if my LO is sick at day care, I have no choice but to ditch work asap. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-less-into-your-careerwork-since-having-a-kid#post-4941 Tue, 18 Oct 2011 15:34:14 +0000 sandsandmore 4941@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love my job, but that's all it is, my job. Now that I have children, it's even more true. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-less-into-your-careerwork-since-having-a-kid#post-4931 Tue, 18 Oct 2011 15:01:15 +0000 mrbee 4931@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I hear this a lot from new parents, and was wondering how universal a feeling it is... </p> <p>Does work feel like less of a priority since you had a kid? Are you less into your career/work? </p>
