How a Career in Medicine Makes It Hard to Build a Family

@2Devils my high school BFF also had two babies during her surgical residency in the late 1990s. It’s incredibly tough, and tough women do it all the time. Congrats to you! I am absolutely turned off by the tone of this thread with other commenters trying to one up each other. It’s mind bogglingly tough to achieve a high level of professional success and start a family simultaneously in almost every profession. Kudos to those who succeed!
