I'm a SAHM (leaves me too much time to obsess over having a baby boy ) I'm trying to preschool my 4 1/2 yr old DD and potty train my 23 month old DD. Lots of work! lol

I work as a nurse in a Critical Care department on a part time basis. I work weekends and nights. But my full-time job is my kids and I am lucky enough to spend 90% of my time with them in the week. I went back to work 6 months after having DS1 and DS2, but 11 months after DS3 when maternity pay was improved in the UK.
I love the fact that I can take and fetch my children from school most days and am able to watch school play, sports days etc. DH has a good job, allowing me to work part-time. I have considered being a 100% SAHM, but that would mean losing my career, so I think now I have the best of both worlds!!7, 5, 2, 02/12/11

I'm SAHM with two girls, I just love being at home, watching my kids grow, the late mornings, late nights, cooking, snacking, tv, internet, shopping, I don't miss work ONNEEE bit! I'm making the most of it while I can before I complete my family and have to go back eventually. I hate early mornings and I pity my husband when he struggles to wake up to go to work but I love taking up the whole bed when he leaves hehehehe! I'd love to find something part time, but still waiting for my youngest (18 months) to grow some more before I introduce her into part time nursery. She's very much mummys girl and loves to be loved so she needs more time. My eldest who is 34 months is a giggly smiley bundle of happiness to loves going part time nursery and playing with her friends.

I love reading about everyone else! I am a SAHM as well. I started staying home when DD#1 was born 7 years ago (my how time flies!). I was always very driven, career-oriented and came from a 2 working parent home. I never even dreamed of staying at home, it was not even an option in my mind. But there I was pregnant, with a very successful career, making more money than DH and knowing that there was no way I could go back to work after DD was born. My parents and everyone around me though I was nuts for leaving my career... but by now they've come around So I've been at home ever since and DH's career has taken off so I don't have to worry about going back any time soon (thank you God!).
