I use to be a SAHM. If I had my way about it, I still would be.

I am a SAHM, have been for about five years now. I stopped working when we decided to start having children. It is something we, my husband and I, discussed before hand.

Have been a SAHM off and on but for the last 3 1/2 years full time SAHM. Just live to far to find a good babysitter for me to get a part time or full time job.

I had been SAHM for about 2 months sinced we move to AZ. I had always been working at CA due to financial reaseon. Its still having a hard time being SAHM and I know its worth it at the end.

Being an 'older mom' (having my first at 35), I wasn't sure how I would handle being a SAHM. However, I wanted to walk my talk, feeling that I"m the best person to raise my children. So I left my job.

Then I started working from home (www.creatinglight.net), and discovered I could have the best of both worlds!

I am mostly a SAHM but I wok outside the home when my Husband is home with our daughter...only a few hours a week! I also tutor online from home...so I make a little extra spending money and feel like I am contributing!

I am a single, work from home mom with two toddlers. It was the best decision for me because day care costs were outrageous. The money I save keeping them at home with me while I work makes ends meet.

the best paycheck is the one with pooy diapers, buggers on the face, sticky hair, and giggles all day long. nothing beats that=) =)

I was a SAHM for 8 mos with my first. I went back to work full time but in low stress job. I am now in a higher stress job and pregnant again. I will have to go back to work after this one but if I had it my way, I'd be a SAHM again. I agree, daycare costs are crazy!

I never was a SAHM until Aug. of 1999, MY whole life changed them...I worked for Ford Motor Co. until I was wrongfully discharged do to medical matters...I have had 17 surgeries, one leaving me with a major deformity of my upper lip, but soon to be corrected in just a few more months...I cannot wait either! But,I'm not saying that I don't mind being a SAHM but I do like to get out for sanity reasons that's for sure!

I became a SAHM when my second daughter was born. I LOVE it but since I needed adult time I started my own direct sales business ... its been great!!!

I am a SAHM and I absolutely think I couldn't have it any other way. My husband grew up with a SAHM and all of his aunts were also SAHMS, so it was taboo for him to send me back out into the workforce. I grew up with a working mom and to tell you the truth, there was a lot lacking in my childhood. So, I guess I'm glad to be able to stay at home with my little one and so is my husband.

SAHM and loving it!

when I first found out I was pregnant I decided I would be a SAHM for atleast a year then I would get a job, either at home or part time...I'm not sure if I really want to quit being a SAHM tho...I love it, I love spending so much time with my little man. I guess we'll see where god points me after Brandon turns a year old.

I am SAHM , but I would rather be working (for sanity).

I work part-time out of the home and part-time in the home during Danie's naptime. When I went back, after 6 mos, I took a job with much less responsibility and set hours. I'm thankful to have something outside as a break and only recently have less ambivalence about leaving him. I've been back to work for 7 month.

I continue to call myself a SAHM because when I am not with my kids, I am volunteering at a local Pregnancy Center where I live. I am home with my kids anytime they need or want me and I enjoy every second of it!
