Well, GitHub's green boxes are probably not a great metric for how much one is learning. (And really I think the sign of enlightenment is red boxes, but I digress.)
You will probably have the realization post-kids that you had obscene amounts of spare time in your youth.
But it's ok because having kids can really focus you. And it's amazing what your mind is capable of when you're focused.
Time box distractions and be clear with yourself what your goals are. Steady progress towards them can be really effective. Even 30 minutes a day of total focus towards a larger goal will over time pay dividends.
But, maybe most importantly: sleep. You're likely to get sleep deprived, and learning anything requires sleep and lots of it. There's always tomorrow.
If you're asking because you're expecting, congrats!
