Working Moms

Undecided?

Are there any "undecideds" on this board?  Women who are able to choose between working and not working but haven't made up their mind yet?

    I am not undecided.

    I really want to stay home with DS but can't due to finances. You may want to check this out at the library. https://www.amazon.com/Mommy-Wars-Stay-at-Home-Choices-Families/dp/0812974484/ref=pd_sim_b_4

    Good luck!!!

  • Thanks -- did you read it?  Does it promote one way over the other?

     

    P.S.  My husband loves the name Dylan.

  • Like the pp I am not undecided. I work because we could not maintain our standard of living on just one income. But if I was given the choice I would totally stay at home with DD.
  • Every day I'm still conflicted. My DD is almost 2 and yet I'd say about 75% of the time I'd love to quit my job but I just don't have the guts.  25% of the time, I love being a working mom.
  • I am extremely undecided this time. I want to go back to work and then I do not. I start back next week, and I figured I would just see how it goes. I thankfully have a pretty good deal. I really only have to work 60hrs a month. I could also drop a level and work a min of 24hrs a month. I have not worked in 4mo and I am frankly pretty nervous about it. I work in a Cardiac Surgery ICU and I think I am just scared. I have been there a long time, but we have had another manager change and I am not interested in putting up with someone who is only there for a short time. Oh well.

  • I wish I could stay home with DS but we cannot live off of one income and if we had to live off of one income it would be mine
  • Ditto.  Breaks my heart.
