Just HAD to respond to this post cos I have been on both sides of the fence - i worked for 2 years after my firstborn and have been a SAHM for 3 years now - and i know which one was/is harder for me! It's being a SAHM. For a working mother, the day-to-day stress levels, logistics are much harder to handle. For a SAHM, the effects are more long-term...the sheer drudgery of each Aparnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17348419737425889834noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8812832649722160125.post-9146622456932662532010-09-01T19:59:02.744+05:302010-09-01T19:59:02.744+05:30Hai

But now am a SHAM as well as do some transcription work from home now that both go to school. It is true that if we are a SHAM we never get time for ourselves, even to cut nails and things like that, but we have to think of one thing, if we are not ready to sacrifice for our kids HOW will others doUnknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03594114196636895662noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8812832649722160125.post-70541872015450976322010-09-01T15:02:00.125+05:302010-09-01T15:02:00.125+05:30Hey Garima, sorry seemed to have missed replying t...Hey Garima, sorry seemed to have missed replying to this. DON'T QUIT. I beseech you (ok that's a bit of drama). You seem to be a go-getter and you seem to have got your balance fine between work and family. If you're the kind that cant stay indoors, don't do it. I agree with ur hubby. It will break your heart and have a cascading effect on other things. But think about it Forever motherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10053267141364034596noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8812832649722160125.post-41960552202024421942010-09-01T11:01:03.378+05:302010-09-01T11:01:03.378+05:30Couldnt agree with u more.

By the end of the eyar I was itching to get back to work. I have lot of respect for SAHM esp those who ve been to work and then quit to rasie kids. Hats off to you all!

I worked for 7 years before I had my dear D, and I never thought I would be a SAHM, but here I am ! I have a cousin who's a working mom and doing a great job of raising her son too, so I know how tough that can be!<br />I have great respect for working moms but I Aparnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06829120477564667304noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8812832649722160125.post-23973964202465854712010-08-23T20:32:43.824+05:302010-08-23T20:32:43.824+05:30I agree with you cent percent.

I have been toying with the idea of taking a short break now that V is a bit older. But still no very sure of it. My husband is dead against it, since he thinks it will do more harm than good... and I am thinking, he might be right.

I tend to think SAHM are great.<br /><br />However some of my neighbours who are SAHM let the kids cry, not giving in to their tantrums, kids are also not that stubborn, so its easier to manager them. They cook once in morning (same for night), when hubbies are around. They nag their hubbies to take them out on Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
