[quote=Anonymous]I delivered in May (a few years ago), and was due back in August. Throughout May and June, I knew I wanted to stay home, but come July, I started changing my mind. I made a deal with myself to go back and reevaluate at 30 days, and then at the end of the year. My rationale was it's easier to make the decision to stay home while you're working than it is to make the decision to work while you're staying home. I ended up continuing to work. I like my work, but I don't have one of these powerful, completely fulfilling jobs. I would be lying if I didn't say I still sometimes consider staying home two years later, but for the most part, I am glad I went back. A friend of mine did the same thing (gave herself dates to re-evaluate), and ended up leaving after five months. We meet for lunch frequently, and she is happy she gave working a try, but knows she made the right choice for her. Good luck with whatever you choose![/quote]
