Re: made a decision ( SAHM)
What a huge decision you've made!!! Wishing you all the best with it! I'm really excited to be a SAHM and feel so lucky we can do it for a little while at least.

Re: made a decision ( SAHM)
I went through the same feelings. It is exciting and nerve-wracking, but I'm glad to be able to do it.

Re: made a decision ( SAHM)
Congratulations!!! I also went through the same feelings, it is terrifying to give up an income and the security of a job, but nothing compares to being home with your LO! There are very few things I wouldn't give up to stay home with DS 
Enjoy it!!!

Re: made a decision ( SAHM)
It is such a difficult decision to make. And when we decided for me to stay home I was flooded with mixed emotions. Fast forward two years and I really could not be any happier.

Re: made a decision ( SAHM)
I think that's great! good for you! I too will be a SAHM! Well...technically I"m working but I work from home and most of my effort will be as a mom. But I think it's a wonderful thing and I can't wait!

Re: made a decision ( SAHM)
I think anybody who decides to be a SAHM gets some kind of anxiety over it. It does take a lot of sacrifices (financially), but it is just so worth it!! I'm sure you made the right decision. I've been going back & forth with this option too and I'm 95% settled on staying home. I'm waiting to tell my job though until I'm at 100%
