stay at home or working mom?

I'm undecided on this one - at moment i'm on maternity leave, having had my little boy a month ago. Part of me is dreading going back to work, and wants to stay at home with him every day, as iI feel like I will miss out on so much if I go back. On the other hand, I can't wait to get back there and continue with my career and regain a little independance.

well If i where to be a woman I guess I sure would rather be a working mom. In essence what am trying to say is that my wife will not be a stay at home mom. Thanks.

Technically, I am stay at home AND working! I watch a little girl just my daughter's age in my home. It's perfect because I get to make a little extra money, and get to be with my daughter, and have a playmate for her! I couldn't ask for better.
