Answer 1

i have baby & would love to stay with her at home, i am planning to go back to my country with my little angel and than stay with her at home... as she wil go to school.. i would love to...

Answer 2

I worked full time before my oldest was born. (actually I worked full time up until the day I went into labor! lol)

My husband and I had always planned that one of us would be a stay at home parent. It made the most sense for me to stay home because his salary was a bit higher, plus I needed some physical recovery time after the birth.

We now have two children (and are planning on two more) and I will continue stay home until our youngest child is in full-day school. Then I will most likely work part time so I can be home when they get off the school bus in the afternoons. I love being a stay at home mom, I wouldn't have it any other way!

Of course, if my husband ever lost his job or decided he wanted to stay home for a while, I would go back full time and he would stay home with the children instead :)

Answer 3

I worked for years before I had my son, but I have been a a stay at home mom since Dec 2001. I am expecting baby # 2 right now, and will stay at home for at least another 4 years, if not forever. I love it, and have never looked back in regret.

Answer 4

I am a stay at home mom from last 4 years. I worked until I got pregnant with my first kid and then went back to part time work few months ago. I picked days and hours when my husband would work from home as we never wanted Day care for our toddler.
As soon as I concieved our second child, I resigned and am home. I have never gotten as much satisfaction as being a stay at home mom and not having to miss one single milestone of my child's life is what encourages me to spend the next few years at home for my second one.
I always find ways to earn money while being stay at home, that increases my sense of achievement. Shows it to myself just how creative we can be if we prioritize and sets examples for my spouse and kids that family comes first and a big house, extra cars and fancy expenses is not that important.
By the way we have a comfortable house, decent cars and take family vacations.
But I salute every woman who struggles to put food on the table for her kids future and works because she believes that that is how her child's future is more secure.

Answer 5

I was a General Manager for 13 years and had planned on going back to work after my first was about 3 months. When he was about 5 weeks, I started freaking out because I knew I couldn't leave my son all day for someone else to raise.

My husband and I sold everything we could, simplified our lives and never looked back.

I love being home with my 3 boys. We homeschool and I really feel like this is where I belong. I couldn't imagine it any other way.

It's not easy and we do without a lot of material things (we rent our apartment, drive 10+ year old cars, buy clothes at yard sales, rarely eat out), but we have so much love and fun. I wouldn't trade being with my boys for a mansion, new cars, toys or anything. It's not worth it. Our kids are worth more to us than stuff.

Sometimes I get worn out because it's not easy to try to keep up a house when it's being taken apart faster than I can clean. The boys will sometimes fight and misbehave, but still, it's so worth it. They are polite, gentle, fun, outgoing, bright and caring people. I influence them with my values and ethics, not someone else.

Maybe I'm just selfish, because I really enjoy my kids and love being with them and watching them grow and learn.

Answer 6

i feel any woman would love to be a stay-at-home mum provided she has enough money and funds to raise her kids. however, if the money your husband earning, is not sufficient enough for even two of you, how can you expect not to work??
Another option is - you can opt for- Work from home. There are many options available these days for work for home mums, if you really want to work. Else, its sooo relaxing and enjoying to just stay ay home without having any tension of getting up early in the morning to rush to office and missing the beautiful , lovely growing up period of your kid, that will never come back.

Answer 7

well im currently working my baby is 8 months but i enjoy every single day i dont work and spent the day together. sometimes i call my job saying im sick just to sleep in with her or spent the day together and i love it. i would absoulutly love to be a stay at home mom that would be the best job i could have. but unfortunatly i have to pay bills and car payments so thats not an option for me and the plus side of working is that you get money and buy anything you want without asking your man for money and answering all questions about what you buyng and why so much and all that stuff. but the down side is that you dont spend enough time with your child(ren)

Answer 8

I have read every mom's suggestions and agree wt all of them.I also want's to stay home wt my son but here in Hong Kong it is hard to afford, I start working now my son is 1 year and four mths now I kept a helper to take care for him but I am not satisfied wt her because she pass her time talking on phone, so I am deicing to stay home and leave the job.

Answer 9

I worked for about a year before I had my baby. I am so happy that I am a Stay-At-Home mom. I really could not see myself returning to work until my kids are all grown up. It is a hard job(honestly, I find it harder than when I was working) but so very rewarding.
