[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I do exactly what OP wants to do - and my marriage is extremely happy and so am I.  I don't do housework at all.  I have never been good at it anyway so I have a housekeeper and all I do all day is take care of my children.  And yes, I nap when they nap pretty much every single day.

I honestly have no clue why some are in such a snit about this post. [/quote]

The problem is not what OP wants to do but the fact that she says she defines her role and responsibilities with the role and responsibilities of a nanny. If she wants to get household help that's fine. Being a stay at home mom is difficult and if she can afford the help why not? What is ridiculous is her telling her husband that when the kid comes she only wants to do the things that a professional nanny does. A normal person would say honey "Being a stay at home mom will be hard and I'm thinking that we should hire someone to help with housework. That way we can both focus on the baby without having to worry about cleaning the house. What do you think?'"[/quote]
