Stay at home and it is great. I was able to put Aiden my 3 month old
on a schedule where he sleeps from 9-4:30. I will have to go back to work when my unemployment runs out.
Hi everyone I'm new to the group. I am a stay at home mom with my own business. I was just recently able to quit my full time job and stay at home with my kids and I'm loving it. I am a Passion Party Consultant. I am so thankful for everyday. Working moms I also admire my hat goes off. Glad to be here.
Hey Mickey
My name is Tina, I read ur post and believe me I understand. Staying home with the kiddos is great but then like u said it's great to make "ur own money". Have you ever thought about doing direct sales? I know it sounds a little crazy and boring but what I sell is anything but boring.
I am a Passion Party Consultant. Have you ever heard of Passion Parties? I love it I make my own money I work when I want to and when I do work I get to hang out with ladies have a great time full of laughs and giggles. It's the best of both worlds I still get to stay home with my kids, added some spice into my marriage and get adult interaction.
If your interested in more info maybe we can meet for coffee I can also email you info. This amazing gift was offered to me and I just wanted to share.

I work from home and take care of my 9 month old little boy all week. 2 jobs at once! I'm blessed to be able to do that though.
I use to be a hairstylist before I had my daughter and my hubby and I knew once we started a family we wanted me to stay home. I LOVE it...now don't get me wrong...some days are TOUGH but it is all worth it to us! I just took a part time job as a Sales Rep. for the children's clothing line My Vintage Baby but I will have a flexible schedule and I think it will be fun since I love shopping for my daughter anyways! :)
I have gotten to start staying at home with our now 7 months and I am loving it! And now we are expecting another baby.
I am a working mom, but luckily with this new job I can work from home if my dd gets sick, it would've been nice 6 yrs ago because now my daughter is in school, but I do get to take her to school and pick her up.

Why is it that mom's that work is seen as admirous, but not the other way around? I admire the moms that stay at home, even if it costs a little sacrifice in income. Its important for kids to have their mommys at home, especially during the earliest years of their life (before they even go to Kindergarden). I have been one of those moms that had to sacrifice a nicer living, or material things, to stay home to take care of my baby. She's a little over 1 now and I have to go back to work but if I could, I might just work part-time with the option until she was a little older. Maybe I'm just traditional? Even when I was pregnant I thought I thought I would return back to work a few months after she was born, but when I tried to leave her behind, it made me SO sad to leave her. I just couldn't do it! Maybe it was the hormones (from breastfeeding, etc) but I would start to ball just thinking about leaving her.
Before I had my DD I used to admire mommies that go to work, but now I really admire both. I really admire those mommies that can give up life luxuries if they have to to take care of their newborn.
I saw a girl, married, have a baby around the same time as I did and go back to work as soon as she could. I felt so sorry for that baby boy. I felt even more sorry for him when mommy came home one day with a brand new luxurious car! Me personally, I would rather spend time with my daughter even if I drove an older car because of it.
What do you girls think?
