  • I was a SAHM for 3 years and returned to work 3 weeks ago. I could cry with glee. It's so amazing and liberating! It's also strange getting hit on by men. For the past three years I have always had a baby with me or I've been pregnant, in other words, I've been invisible to all men. Now, it's like I exist again. I'm not saying that I am looking for something, but it's so surprising just to be hit on again. Eating lunch alone, taking the subway alone, making quick runs out for coffee, speaking to adults, wearing heels & makeup again! These are all things that I didn't realize how much I'd been missing!

      • They are 3yo & 1yo. It actually isn't that difficult as my 3yo is rather difficult right now. ;-) I work outside of the home for only 18hrs a week and the rest I can do at home.

    • Do the kids cry when you leave? How do you deal with it?

    • It's the little things! Congrats. I'm about to do the reverse -- stay home after being a working mother for over 5 years -- and I'm looking forward to the solitude.

    • Do you miss your dc? Does she miss her mom or is her mom too giddy to notice? PLEASE do not have a 2nd; do the world a favor.
