I'm considering quitting my job after LO is born. I never in a million years thought that I would be a SAHM. I've always been very career focused and even throughout my whole pregnancy with DD I had no desire to SAH. But I had a really hard time going back to work and still struggle with it after being back over a year. Financially it's not a problem, but I went to school for 8 years to get my dream job and I've only been working for a little over 3 years
The potentially flameable part- I won't make up my mind completely until I'm on maternity leave. I'm worried that I won't want to be a SAHM to 2 kids. What if I only want to be a SAHM to 1 kid? If makes me feel like a jerk even thinking it but if I were to leave my job chances are very slim I would be able to return to it. I could return to work, but it would not be the dream job so I want to make sure I'm absolutely happy with the decision.
And f you call up your job at the end of leave and say "yeah, not coming back", you certainly wouldn't be the first.
