So what do you ladies do for work?

baileygoose

Just curious where everyone works, what you do? Also, how long are you taking for maternity leave? Anyone actually quitting their job to be a stay at home mom? That would be great but isn't really an option for us right now I work as a Hospice nurse. It's great but I have to be on call a lot and that sucks I just can't wait for baby, it will be so weird to not work for 3 months!

I run a small daycare out of my home.. I have someone I pay to come take care of the kids while I go to doc appts. We have talked and I will hire her full time for a couple months. Especially since my hubby will deploy after I have the baby.

@salsabia wow, that sucks! Hope your baby is safe and healthy though, but that's hard to have to blow all of your leave now before baby Best wishes for a safe pregnancy though

I'm a stay @ home mom. I was told I couldn't have children. So when I found out I was having twins I had to quit. I was a cna I actually miss it alot but I love my children & being able to b home with them has been such a wonderful blessing. I don't miss out on anything. I hope it works out for those of y'all that want to stay home with ur children.
