I work 3 days a week at home for a health insurance company and go to the office 2 days a week. I do want to be a SAHM but we have to get our finances in check...

I work outside the home. I am a teacher. It is a great job if you have kids. I get there early to grade papers, etc while my husband takes care of him in the morning and drops him off at my mom`s. Then I can leave work at 3, and still have several hours with him before bedtime! And over the summer, I will spend most of my time with the baby except for the days I have meetings. So I feel like I will have the best of both worlds!

I work out side of the home. Being a SAHM was never an option as I am the primary wage earner. I am hoping to cut down hours a little bit once I have this baby. I love my job and always have, but it is hard to leave my LO at home.

I`m a stay at mum and I love it. We go to swim lessons, play group mothers group. I love being home with my son, it`s such a precious age and we`re very fortunate that I am able to stay home. I won`t return to work until we`re done having kids adn they`re in preschool. ut not everyone enjoys it. I must admit, the first 8-9 mths were really rough as my son had severe reflux, so it was a very stressful time. But once we got through that it`s been wonderful.

The grass is always greener on the other side. After my first I wanted so badly to stay at home but we couldn`t afford it. After my second I am now a SAHM... but it`s not as great as it seems. I never get to get out. I need a break.

I love being a SAHM but I am in the process of becoming a WAHM. Gonna be selling cloth diapers if anyone is interested!

i work part time 2-3 days a week (only 4-5 hour shifts), and stay at home the rest of the time. Its actually nice to get out a bit and have some time away. i work because of finances right now, tho hopefully soon i won`t have to. with a second little one on the way i would rather stay home all the time, at least till they go to school.

  1. I`ve re-thought the moderating of the member-postings. How does this sound? Let`s change it to usage, rather than length of time as a member. Say your first 10 or 20 polls, questions and pictures need to be approved by a Mod or something like that. Someone posting the racist polls and adding the kiddie porn is unlikely to participate as a normal member. Once you are verified as a regular member you`re no longer monitored.
  2. How long did it take you to get pregnant after you got your IUD (Mirena) out?
  3. Twilight valentines for 7 year olds... appropriate or not? DD received a valentine with a very... sultry smoldery Edward on the front and I was just kind of surprised that anyone would buy those for 7 year olds? I know I`m on the conservative side in general on those kinds of things, but this really surprised me!
  4. My daughter is almost 5 months and 3 weeks ago my hair started falling out. I know it`s normal but how long did it last for you?
  5. With all the issues going on with the site maybe we need an updated list on Mods. Obviously Laura is the one to go to but if there is a concern and it needs immediate attention and a Mod is online it may be good to know who is who so you can reach out to them. Mods, can you please post here so we know who you are. (Esp since some profiles names had to be changed because of recent log on issues)
  6. Anyone wanna try http://parentspuzzlepieces.spruz.com/ a free community site I just made? Let me know if you want the password and would want to help add things to it!!
  7. I think with all the posting issues IAP needs to appoint someone to verify all pictures, polls, questions, etc that are posted by new members. Sure, it`ll probably make things slower, but something needs to be done! Many websites have this installed and IAP needs it as well. Members that have been on the site for a certain time can be exempt, but if you are a new member, posts should be monitored. I`m going to copy this suggestoin to Laura and if you agree you should too!! :)
  8. MODS ~ please help me in monitoring the photo pages and other pages. Horrific porn was posted in photos sections and they need to be deleted as soon as they are seen. I reported it to Laura also. TX!!
  9. my 4 yr old has 3 planter warts on his foot,.. any home remedies gals or is this a dr visit?
  10. ok ladies, sry its long but i really need some advice, a year ago my 5 yr old brother was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes, over the last year my mom has had a hard time dealing with his diagnosis because there is no cure and all she can do is give him 5 insulin shots a day to keep him alive, she looks at it like march 13th 2011 was the death of her healthy little boy and she woke up with this sick child, well i always tell her she needs to go to counseling to learn how to cope with this but lately i`m more worried about my baby brother, he came home the other day from kindergarten and had a picture of a red headed boy with a knife, 3 people under the ground dead and another one on top of the ground covered in blood, he recently grabbed one of my 15 yr old brother`s pocket knives out and started swinging it at my older brother because they were fighting, and then he told my mother he wanted to be a serial killer when he grows up! he has said before that he wishes he would die, that he didn`t want to wake up the next morning,.....
