Hell no
i would be staying at home!
In an ideal world I’d drop down to doing 2 weeks on, 2 weeks off. But I can’t afford the 50% pay cut 🥲
I would probably go back to work but that’s because I work in/am going to school for film and it’s been a bit FOMO for me to see my fellow peers put out projects and I’ve been stagnant. Especially with film being my dream. 😅 Otherwise I enjoy being a SAHM. 🫶🏼
I'd stay home
I wouldn’t. Well I babysit to get extra cash but I don’t have to that’s just for spending money I genuinely only care about being around my son.
I didn’t have to and it’s been wonderful for me
Absolutely not
I always thought hell yeah I’d stay home, but I enjoy the adult interaction and using my brain a few hours a week. I don’t work full time only 15 hours a week and I enjoy it.
As much as I like being out and doing things, or interacting … no. I could make friends for that, or go visiting any time of day, and find hobbies, and enjoy my time with my LO. I love my job but it’s such a privilege to stay home and raise my baby that I know other moms wish they could do.
I did both
Nopeeee, stay home with your babies!!
I actually miss work a lot, but I know it’ll be hard to be away from my child once I eventually go back
No chance!!! Luckily I was fortunate enough to be able to drop to part time. 🥺 There’s no way I could have went back to 40 hour work weeks!

i chose to stay home - i knew a lot of the money i'd be bringing in would go on childcare costs anyway. also, i was a teacher and i found it near impossible to get the work-life balance right without children, so i just know would have found it too stressful. i feel incredibly lucky to be able to stay home with my daughter xx
Nope lol I barely work now they cut my hours and since it’s not routine no more I honestly forget. I’m hoping I can just get a work from home job if I do have to return to work after maternity leave so I can still be home with the baby. As long as I’m able to get out the house here and there I’d be fine
Depends on the situation and how supportive your partner is
I’d happily stay at home 🥰
