Interesting read about women returning to work.

How many of you returned to work? How many of you decided to stay at home? Feel free to link in comments.

  1. I didnt return right away with my son, then while in was looking, we found out were execting a baby girl this fall!:) hoping not to wait so long before going back into the work field, as much as id love to stay home with my babies!

  2. I’m still trying to figure out what I want to do – and I am so torn. I love being home with my little guy (he is 13 months now), but some days I miss my job. It was so personally fulfilling. I’ve never had to make such a tough decision in my life!

    • Hi Stephanie

      Its very hard isn’t it? I stayed off for 18 months with my first, but when the second came along I had to return to work. I thought I really needed to return to give me my own independence and some sanity back! But since returning I have really missed my time at home and hope that soon I can work from work home instead. You have to do what you feel is right for your family. Maybe you could go back part-time? I wish you all the best in your decision and please feel free to come back and let me know how you are making out! Warm regards, Dionne.

  3. I stay home 🙂
    It’s not easy of course.. hubby is about to embark on a 4 year apprenticeship, so he’s not making a “career” income yet per say. With 2 cars and a mortgage, I pay an *INSANE* amount of attention to expenses and planning, but it works for us! I will return to work once my 2 boys are in school.

    • You sound one savvy momma Cassie! We have to plan everything too and with just the one car, it gets very frustrating sometimes!

  4. I’m home now with our Alice (15 months) and loving it. Hubby doesn’t love the financial sitution but I want to be there more for our 2 Kids and I’ll consider going back full time when they’re both in School full time
