Answers: im afraid im still waiting to get pregnant but my friend stayed off work for a year

I haven't, I became a stay at home mom and it's great.

I went back after 7 weeks. I would've loved to stay home longer to "bond" but physically I was fine. Just a little tired.

I am self-employed, but I took several months off to care for the baby then part time for a long time. I am still part time and she's 8...

My sister-in-law went back to work 8 weeks after each of her kids. I feel bad when moms have to do that because the baby needs bonding and giving them to strangers to care for them so young seems wrong to me. Plus, I nursed for 2-1/2 years, so going to an outside job would have made that difficult or impossible, but I know some women who try and make it work as long as possible, with pumping, etc.
