stay at home
chapped lips asked:


I’m 6 months prego and would like to stay home and raise my child. How do I go from a business woman with a masters degree to being a full time mommy? How can I make my transition eassier?

    What transition. I didn’t know that you needed to have help to sit at home all day long. How hard could that be. If it is so difficult for you to “”transition”" then go back to work. There are millions of women that remain successful and be a mother at the same-time. Trust me I think you will-not have to “”transition” to sit at home.

    How about selling things on eBay? You could make money at your own pace, and have plenty of time with your child.

    My sister-in-law’s experience was that once she had that baby girl in her arms, she didn’t want to let go. Her priorities switched immediately.

    Her husband has a good job as well so she quit entirely, and may telecommute in the future.

    Consider whether working from home, maybe of an entrepreneurial kind, is available for you once your baby is on a reasonable schedule.

    You should start with a bit of cosmetic surgery…the face is really going to scare your baby!!
    Seriously, when your baby is born, it won’t be an issue. You’ll be so sleep deprived and busy that you won’t even notice it!! As your baby gets older, take up some hobbies to fill in the little bit of spare time you’ll have. You will love the change in your lifestyle. Being a mum is more rewarding then any career you could ever have.
