So although we haven't even told our families yet that we are expecting #2, we decided to tell the daycare provider that come this October our LO will be leaving her care because I will become a SAHM. So yay, its official!!! Our plan is that I will be home with the two infants for a couple years and then consider going part time. However, I'm hoping that by then, #3 is on its way so that part time gets pushed back even further... I'm so happy because it was so difficult to return to work and leave my LO at daycare (which we only started last month) now I can say to myself, 1 month down 7 to go!
Re: Officially becoming a SAHM... for now at least...
Congrats!
I'm strongly considering doing the same thing come September when my maternity leave is up. We haven't told our DCP or anything yet though- I want to make sure I can handle SAH with 2u2!
We plan on having 3 kids as well so I'll also plan on being home until #3 is old enough for preschool.
Congrats! That is very exciting. I am going to become a SAHM when we have our second child. We have been thinking about that timing.
