I have a 6month old daughter (my 1st) and I take her to work with me every day. I work at a diesel repair shop in the office and its getting rough, sometimes there's diesel fumes and I hate her being there but I don't have a choice.its rough being a working mom and then switch gears to coming home to now a mom and a wife. I want to be a stay at home so bad but there's just no way. I hope all the stay at home moms really appreciate that they get to stay in the comfort of their home with their babies and take care of them in their own environment and be able to take care of the house and not trying to do it after a long day at work, still needing to shower (forget having time to shave), cook dinner, get a diaper bag ready for the next day, fold laundry, wash your baby, feed her, have time with your husband, and if there's 5 min to spare before going to bed and starting all over again, having YOU time. I was a stay at home mom in my last marriage before I had kids of my own and took care of my step kids 24/7 so I know what it takes to be a stay at home mom and I loved it, I would love to have that back. Sometimes I want to just sit in my closet and have a good cry session and let it out and tell myself I'm strong and I have to do what I have to do.
