Did anyone have kids at the start of your hustle? (alien.top)

I was going to come up with a hustle until I found out my wife was pregnant so I decided to put it to the side. Fast forward to around now, my kid is 2 and it's pretty exhausting thinking about it now if I did go through my project. I personally couldn't find myself continuing the project because I had a full-time job and even trying to work on my hustle at home, it gets too distracting but I also WANT to be a family man.

I have no judgment in any way and like to know if anyone ever managed to run their (new) projects while having a kid either on the way or just arriving. So far what I've seen in person, it seems the ones who kept their business up don't spend a lot of time with their partner/kid. As said, I have no judgment and just like to know more about it.

Yes I have three young kids, i started my two businesses couple of months before no 3 came along

How about you look at this way, if you have a business, you can create something that allows you to be at home all the time with your family.

My kids think its normal for dad to be at home.
