[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, I could have written your post too. I chose to stay put and am now so happy I did, being pregnant with our second. [b]I think when both are in school I'll take time to refocus on career[/b]. Nobody ever regrets having decided to spend more time with their children. [/quote] I was going to do the same thing you propose but then I read this thread: http://www.dcurbanmom.com/jforum/posts/list/218790.page#2189710 Several people talk about how important it is to really be available to your child during the school years. So now I'm more conflicted about "refocusing" on my career just at the age when being home when they get home from school and need to process things seems really important. No advice, just another point of view. I've stuck with a job that's not too demanding and I've negotiated some work from home which I can do after the baby is asleep at night. So far it's working for us.[/quote]
