[quote=Anonymous]Not fair to you to go forward and no way no how fair to the kid. An ambivalent mom who is always jonesing for alone time will be felt by the kid as cold and rejecting. You will not be the fun mom who is silly and who makes happy memories with other families if being alone is big for you. I had a mom who SAH but who read even while cooking as a way to shut us out. Horribly painful. Don't do it without really thinking through your limitations and how it might be to have a SN child or a child who is super social. You need to meet their needs and it doesn't sound likely to be fun and rewarding for you. You are not doing DH a favor, you are creating a life that will form a template for self based on your relationship with him/her. It's hard enough if it is a burning desire. [/quote]
