I am supremely jealous of your ability to take time and have no idea what to do. I have a 7 month old kiddo and a partner who plans our calendar months in advance. I dont think I'll ever have a weeklong stretch of unspoked for time ever again in my whole life.
I am incredibly lucky to live in a country that strongly protects workers, to have no children and to be able to afford an apartment 10mins away from my partner's place rather than living together and depending on each other's calendar. I remember how lucky I am every day. I really hope the baby is doing well and that things will settle down in a year or two - obviously it's still not going to be "unspoken for time", but hopefully things will settle down a bit at least!
