    I sit in an office all day.  I have to go for walks on my lunch to get the blood circulating out of my rear end!

    I put office setting...but It's a mix between that and education. I work in the financial aid department for a community college. It's really not as bad as it sounds., :)

    The community college I went to had the best food. I still go there for a quick meal rather than hitting the Macdons down the road lol

    Middle management at a cafe. My goal is to have a structured SAHM gig making/selling art by the time the baby is here, so we can avoid childcare costs and hopefully breast feed full time. I am, uh, not very close to my goal as I can't bring myself to make/paint anything these days. Artist block is the worst. :(

    I'm a mortgage broker so most of my day is spent on the phone and responding to emails. It's 100% commission though so however long I take off for the LO, I won't get paid. Other than that, it's a pretty great job!

    Former chef, now SAHM going to school for accounting.

    Totally thread hopping.. But now I have even more sympathy for you not being "allowed" to cook a dish for thanksgiving! You can cook for me. :)

    Chase an almost 3 year old around and my mom and I run an online children's boutique, so I have to squeeze in sewing/crafting time in there. Love it!

    I've been a stay at home mom since our daughter was born, but I'm an RN. I'll stay home with our kiddos until they're all in school (or something similar, we haven't exactly decided), then go back to nursing.

    I've been a SAHM since I was 21 (now 25), before that I was a vet tech. Now I may as well be a SAHM and an unpaid vet tech for my entire family ;)

    Dental hygienist. LOVE my job.

    I'm also a dental hygienist! Just graduated in May actually! However I am not working right now- wish I was I just can't get the motivation to go looking! My area is overly saturated since the school is here and I'm nervous to interview for something that I've actually never held a job for and also nervous to find something and then hit them with "I'm pregnant and going to need off for these appts and maternity leave!" I miss it though and really want to get back into it- just dont know what do to!

    Edit for spelling! Stupid iPhone keyboard!

    5 days a week I work with kids (2 days Nanny, 3 days Daycare). I also own my own photography business... As a business owner it's not limited to days a week/hrs. You are kind of always "on the clock". I love my jobs!

    Where do you live? I think most areas are saturated with hygienists. I graduated a year and a half ago and I have friends that still don't have permanent jobs. Lots of temp work though.

    I live in Amarillo,TX. Amarillo College hygiene program is here. Most of the girls that graduated the year before me are still looking for permanent and doing temp- I don't mind at all doing temp and would probably actually be better while being pregnant! I just can't seem to kick the no motivation thing- I don't know what's wrong with me!?
    Where are you at?

    SAHM- before that I was a French teacher. 

    I worked in an office setting for a year as a receptionist. At the time I was bored out of my mind and spent half my day reading blogs but now I look back on that job fondly. I would love to have a job like that again, especially since the pay was very decent.

    I run my own investments company, mostly real estate. I work from home, which is fabulous, and my husband is my company's CTO, so he works from home too. Childcare is going to be a smidgen easier with all our flexibility.
