Its definitely possible.
My 2nd child was born just months before I quit my job to work full-time on my startup. My co-founder also had his first kid at the same time. We worked like crazy this last summer and just recently closed our first round of funding.
Perhaps we were crazy (our wives definitely thought so) but we pulled it off. We're also only in our late 20's :)
- ryanelkins 16y agoAs the co-founder mentioned above, I'll just add that it's important to have the support of your spouse. It works for us because my wife understands that I'm only going to see the baby for an hour or two if at all during the week (I help more on the weekends). My wife doesn't work and she feels lucky to be able to spend all day with our son. I think it might be harder as a baby turns into a child and wants a little more attention from both parents. With the proper support - definitely possible. I think doing a startup as a single parent with a baby would be near impossible.
