Okay, it's probably because I'm nine months pregnant and nesting...

What is your work situation? After having a child, did anyone go from full-time to part-time, work in the office to working from home, or something else? I am interested to hear if people had made big changes like that, and if your new situation work
Answered on 25th April 2008:
I am in the middle of a transition right now. After my first (she's 4) I went back to work full-time and struggled with being away from my baby. Now I have a 3-month old and I just came back to work full-time. I am working next week full time and then going part time (full-day tues and thurs., half day on Weds) at my regular job and teaching a class on M and W evenings. I'll update when I really start on the part-time schedule. I definitely feel like I won't get enough accomplished on my part-time schedule to please my boss. IThere are some interesting articles out there on working part-time, like this one : http://www.businessweek.com/careers/workingparents/blog/archives/2007/07/a_new_study_by.html

Morning and night-time routine: Which is most hectic at your house?
Answered on 25th April 2008:
Mornings! Hands down. The 4-year old can never decide on ANYthing (what to wear, what to eat for breakfast, how to do her hair) and is a major dawdler. The 3 month old is great but getting all her gear together, plus trying to eat breakfast, prepare my lunch- Ack! I get a headache just thinking about it!

Hi, Sarah. Thanks for checking out my blog. I looked at yours too...your girls are beautiful!!! Sorry you're not liking GA. I'm a former New Yorker myself. You should try to make your way closer to Atlanta...much more open minded and metro than where you are now. Atlanta is a great melting pot of people from all over the US and it's got tons of young families. Nice to meet you!

Hi, biomom, I am the co-founder of Work It, Mom! and just wanted to welcome you to our community. If you have any questions about the site, please let me know.

I checked out your blog and it's great - you have a great style, and should write more:) I saw that you used to live in Boston - we just recently moved up here so learning our way around. Look forward to seeing you often at WIM!

Thanks for the welcome! It is so refreshing to find a website for working moms! I meet so much resistance to it here in the small, conservative, religious community of Augusta, GA. I grew up in Oakland, CA and lived in Boston for 5 years (earned my PhD from an unnamed university in Cambridge) so I am not used to this type of community. Work brought me here and hopefully I'll be able to get out soon!

Hi There! Welcome to Work It, Mom! I peeked at your blog, and can so relate to your post about holiday stress and baby stress! Last year, I hosted Thanksgiving for our entire family -- my side AND my in-laws -- while I was just 3 weeks post-partum... what was I thinking? Or not thinking?

Looking forward to reading more from you here at WIM!
