My H actually did a majority of the parenting for the first four years of our oldest's life. He was in school two days a week and even took our four month old to his summer class (with the professor's blessing - and what a blessing given we're in the US!). I had to ask him about all the details about our first son's day because I was like "Idk, I'm at the office."
It's made H so sympathetic to me when he comes home to find me dialing the number for the local pizza place
