What is your job? I train child care providers and manage quality enhancement initiatives in child care centers and family child care homes in Southwest FL.
Will you go back to work after you have the baby? Yep. I love my job! I was deadset against going back to work when I had my daughter, but I had to. Luckily we found an awesome child care provider and she's been there since she was 3 months old and loves her.
I am the Marketing & PR Manager for an international IT Consulting company. Thankfully, we have a pretty lax environment when it comes to doctor's appointments, working from home, etc. So thankful for that!

So excited for Baby #1 due March 10, 2013.
What is your job? I am a finance/business manager at an accounting firm. We do all the financial pieces (Budgeting, financial reporting, accounts payable, payroll, etc) for Charter Schools in MN.
Will you go back to work after you have the baby? Yes, unless I win the lottery!
What is your job? I'm a radiologic technologist which is a fancy way to say xray tech and I work in the vascular lab and help surgeons repair patients arteries and veins.
Will you go back to work after you have the baby? I sure will, but I bet it will be hard

I'm an architect and currently work from home, and plan to continue. I have a feeling I'll be cutting back on my hours a lot, but the nice thing is that I have no set schedule, so for right now if I want to take a nap in the afternoon, that's fine. And later, once the baby comes, I could work at night after DH comes home if I wanted to. My clients are all very flexible too, so I'm hoping for an easy baby I could bring to meetings with me!
I do public relations for a university. I will go back to work, but I'd love to find a different job in the same industry. My current job has been driving me nuts for a while.

Will you go back to work after you have the baby? Ummm, yes? One of the reasons MH and decided for me to be home was because we eventually wanted me to be a SAHM. The timing just worked out right and so we just got a jump start on living off one salary.
I am a high school history teacher and will plan to take the rest of the school year off after the baby is born. I will go back to work in August then.

BFP #2 - 7/1/12 - Met my lucky charm Alexandra on 3-16-13!!!
I am a "Sr. Account Executive" for a employment background/drug screening company. Husband owns his own graphic design firm, so I will be able to take off the UNPAID maternity leave (company is under a certain size and aren't required to pay mat leave) but I will return once that is up.

Twin boys born too early at 17w4d and 18w2d in February 2010
Transabdominal cerclage placed September 2010
DS born at 35w1d in February 2011
Twin girls born at exactly 36w in February 2013
I am a SAHM, which gives me the flexibility to also pursue my photography business. I will probably take a month or so off from booking sessions because I'll be too busy taking my own newborn pictures!
I'm a SAHM and homeschooling mom. We might take a few days off homeschooling, but if it's anything like the last two births, I'll be up cooking within an hour or two.
When my first was little, I ran an in home daycare. My husband was a full time student and worked full time (for about 16mo total of schooling). It was a great way for us to be able to eat, and for me to be home with my son. In the beginning, I had one full time kid and a part time/drop in. Eventually I added another kid part time. Dh is going to be a part time student this time (for a total of two years), but he's going to continue working full time and thankfully makes enough to support us. I've thought about nail tech school, and then taking clients at home in a seperate area though. We'll see what the future brings.

I'm a full-time student (studying Chinese language and applied linguistics) and I work part-time at a restaurant.
I will definitely go back to school. I'll have a year left at that point.
I hope I won't have to go back to my current job. But I will definitely go on to get a job after I get my next degree.
I work as an Office Administrator at a small construction company.
Yes, I will have to go back. This is not where I want to work forever, so someday I will make a career change though.
What is your job? I'm a homemaker. I love it.

ETA: I won't be taking time off.... I don't count the two day hospital stay as vacation :-)
I am also an attorney. I work for a firm and then prosecute for a City 1 day a week. I am dreading telling my boss? What about you?
