[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What I want to know is how long these stay at home wives have been doing this?  I assume the DH is expecting them to become SAHM's.  I have no beefs with SAHM for the record.  I do wonder if the husband would one day give an ultimatum to have children or get to work.  I also wonder what happens if these women find they can't have children.  Would that impact the relationship any differently than say a wife that is working a full-time job?[/quote]

This is our situation and we're facing unexplained infertility. DH would never give me an ultimatum but I have started to think about what the rest of my life will look like if kids aren't an option for us. Heartbreaking, scary, and super exciting all at the same time because the future is wide open.[/quote]

How about extremely boring?  If you don't adopt (a great option), I'd think you'd want to follow some sort of professional pursuit to break up the day?  No?  Wow, I cannot identify with the lot of you.  At ALL.[/quote]

Umm, I'm the pp and you may have misunderstood my post. The point is that without children (we won't adopt), I'm free to embark on any career I want. [/quote]

Not the PP, but oh, I too read, "the future is wide open," as, "I can do so many things at home:  go to museums, take classes, read, work on myself,' not as embark on a career.  [/quote]
