Hi Astrid, I think most mums or mum's to be in here would love to be either SAHM or WAHM's but for most it just comes down to finances.

I am negotiating with my work at the moment to come back three days a week, but they don't know that i actually want to resign at the end of the 12 months, just not 100% about the finances yet, so I want to keep my options open. i want more than anything to stay at home with Jackson when he is finally here.

As for explaining it to other people, you seem more patient than me, i would just tell them it was none of their business and how dare they judge me! LOL, i need to settle a bit!
