I'm honestly not sure how 24/7 being on the team is.
What really got me was the scene where Teyla decides to go with John to rescue Ronon and so she turns and hands the baby to Woolsey. I think part of the point of that scene (along with making Woolsey look silly, which, sure, why not) was that Teyla, if she'd had her head in the right place (e.g., was fully on the team), wouldn't have been in that position.
Which means, no carrying her baby around w/o an entourage??
Sore point for me because, actually, WORK hasn't been a huge problem as a mom. I've been able to set my own hours, and my husband's schedule is flexible; so, while it's been a constant process of tweaking things so that they work, it hasn't been much of a source of anxiety.
What's been more annoying is people who, esp. when I had my first baby, expected me to be able to meet *their* needs in the way I had been - to still be able to be anywhere, at any time, and do anything, and not care how long it took. That's the territory I see John edging into; and, just, NO.
But I really don't think TPTB are thinking about this sort of thing!
