I'm a stay at home mom to my nine month old son. I LOVE being home with him... I can't even begin to imagine how hard it would be if I had to leave him during the day. Sometimes I feel bad that my husband has to work while I'm home, but then I quickly remember that being a SAHM is a full time job as well. And we don't get paid for it! ;)

Congratulations for Jack!!! and welcome Jack!!! I wish I would see all the mothers online here, but I only see you, though I know there are many. I also stayed at home for the kids, I think that's the correct way to do, and I would have stayed longer if possible financially. Hopefully this place here is not only chating but also something else giving. do you get a help from it?

I am a stay at home mum of 2 boys 4 and 11. I am 7 months pregnant and will sta y at home with this one also. I went to work for 12 months and put my 4yr old, then 2 1/2 into daycare and he hated it. I felt so guilty that i had to leave him crying that I left work after 12months. Iloved my new job but would prefer to be at home with my kids. They grow up to fast. I feel bad also that my husband goes to work,he tells me not to, that i work at home, but i am trying to find some work at home opportunities to help out. Any suggestions?

My husband and I have two boys. They are 9 and 4 years of age and I stay home with them. Although it seems that we are rarely actually at home! Always out doing something interesting and educational! We went bowling today and had a great time!

I´m not a mom and I´ll never be :P instead of it, I would like to be a father in future even if I have no idea how many responsibilities implied it and if I can handle it. Anyway, as the others did, I hope I will be able too.
