I think that working from home would be great, esp when bub is very young. You'll still get to spend time with bub and bond heaps, rather than leaving her/him with childcare all day. Also, wont have to deal with the whole dilemma of getting a spot in child care to begin with, and paying for childcare (which is so pricey - my sister used to work in a cantre and they charged $90 a day per chld!! Thats could be an entire days pay!!) Of course , as Lulu said - its hard to get the motivation happening when youre working from home - theres so many more things to do! I dont have children, but i did used to work for Nutrimetics from home, and to be honest, i would jump on the computer and say "i'm just going to check my emails, THEN i'll do my paperwork stuff for the weeek..." but i always ended up finding other cool things on the computer and before i knew it, 2 hours had passed and i had done none of the work i intended to. I really did enjoy it though- if youre feeling crappy its really good because you get to be at home feeling crappy rather than the office with 15 other people. But i would definately say Go for it, its a good lifestyle to be able to work from home.
