    WAHM of four: 6, 4, 3, 1. I run two businesses from my living room/chaos room. lol Decided I would stay home when I was pregnant with our first. I think SAHM's are awesome and WAHM's are still a little misunderstood. I get asked to babysit a lot. Not going to happen! lol

    As an at home mom I have a tougher time with food. Anyone else?

    Yep, me! I have 2 boys ages 8 & 12. I have been at home since summer of 2008. I think we should get paid for the work involved!

    I've been a SAHM since my 6 month old son was born. I probably will stay one until all my future kids are school age. I do a little furniture flipping on the side for some extra money, when I feel like it. :)

    Staying a home has been the absolute BEST thing for me as far as eating healthier, does anyone else feel the same way? When I worked, I could NOT stay away from those delicious (AWFUL!) lunches the drug reps brought in, and I always had seconds. Now that I SAH, I find it so easy to stick to my calorie limit, plan my meals, and drink all the water I want, without having to excuse myself from my work to go pee.

    I'm a stay at home mom, boy: 5 yrs, two girls, 1 and 3. I didn't intend to stay at home or homeschool, but things happened that way, praise God! I'm so thankful.

    I'm a sahm & auntie. My daughter is 12 yo. My great-nephew is 13 mos & also take care of a 17 yo niece. I was let go of my job of 3 yrs in Feb, which was really hard on me. But I'm really enjoying taking care of my nephew fulltime right now so I'm not in s hurry to get back to work. Which I need to do soon so I can pay off college loans.

    I'm a stay-at-home-mom and a full-time student. I have 3 kids: A 13yo boy, and 6 1/2 yo boy/girl twins. I have been a stay-at-home mom for the most part of the 13 years I've been a mom, with brief periods of working.

    SAHM for 5 years! Working on a website project so my husband will eventually be able to work at home and enjoy the children as much as I do. =)
