  I am. I will be returning around 6 weeks and my DH is staying home. Just financially the right decision. And I am lucky enough to work 7 days on and then get 7 days off. On week is going to be ridiculous, but off week makes me feel a little better.?

  I'm going back for a few weeks in May to finish out the year, then I'm quitting to be a SAHM.  If I do it that way, I get paid and keep my insurance until Sept.  Sweet!

  I am too, don't really have a choice.  But to be honest I don't think I could be a fulltime SAHM (of course, I am saying this without having the baby in my arms yet).

  I will be going back to work.  My company is having huge layoffs so I am not sure how long I will survive when I go back, but my goal is to be employed after baby is born.

  It depends on DH's job situation -- he took a buy out in December, so if he gets a new job, I'm taking a year off.  If not, I'll have to go back to work.  I'm praying he gets a job!

  Me, but my schedule is flexible. I'm also waiting to find out if I'll be going back full or part time. (I teach college, so it's the difference between teaching 2 and 4 classes).

  I am by choice, as much as I admire SAHM I don't think I have the genetic composition for that.  After my three month leave, I will be back full time with one to two days from home and the kiddo at a daycare close to my office.

  Don't know yet.  I'm holding my job because DH might get laid off. If he doesn't by the end of my 12 weeks, I will not be going back.

  I have to b/c mine is the only income right now , but I'm fortunate to be able to take the rest of the school year off right into summer for a total of 4.5 months. It took me months to adjust to leaving DS. I don't know if it will be easier or more difficult to leave 2. I'm the only woman in my family and extended family who has kids and works. It sucks, but I have no choice.

  I'll be going back at month 4 part time, then full time after that.  Just don't want my baby to be with me 24/7 and then without me all day.  Although i'd like to be a stay at home mom, it's the second best thing.
