Hello ladies!
So I'm gonna be staying at home when I have the baby. I don't know if I'm excited or not. Well for the most part of course I want to spend every second with my baby. But then would I be okay with not working? Any stay at home moms out there ?

I worked up until DS was 11 months. We moved so I knew I would be home with him for a while. I just started working again and DS was 20 months when this happened. I've been in both shoes and while some people love to be SHAMS, it wasn't my favorite thing. It could have had a lot to do with our location, lack of friends, etc. But we would many times be stuck in the house Mon-Fri while DH worked with no car and no where to go becaue it rains so much. I loved being with DS but socialy it put him back.
Daycare has been amazing for him and he truly gets so much more from daycare than he does with me all day.
Everyones situation is different and everyone strives for different things. I say try it out and if you miss working or whatever else then re-evaluate what you are doing. GL!
