SAHM or Working Mom?
Did you (or will you) stop working and be a Stay at Home Mom (SAHM)? Why or why not? Any regrets in your decision, like do you find yourself wanting to go back to work, or in the middle of a meeting do you wish you were home instead? What would you tell other mom-to-bes who are considering being a SAHM - do it or not?

SAHM 5 out of 7 Days...Love it!

Posted by: laurap32 on Thu Jan 24, 2008

I have a 13 month old daughter, and for the first 6 months, I was a full time SAHM. I was going stir crazy and getting lonely, so I found a part time, 2 day a week job and I love it! I am fortunate enough that my husband's income fully supports our family and that my mom watches our daughter the 2 days that I work. The income I make goes to pay my mom for daycare, then the rest (which isn't much) is my fun money. It is a great situation for my family. I love getting out of the house 2 days a week, and having some adult interaction, plus getting to dress up nice again! We also have a weekly play date with my friends and their kids. Sitting at home 24/7 just isn't for us!
