Mom Envy
My son is 11 weeks old and I’m going to be on FMLA (leave) with him until our next school year starts in August. However, I live in an area with a high percentage of stay at home moms and it’s honestly putting me into a bummed out mood. I’m so envious, I’d love to stay home with my son for a couple years but my husband is a teacher as well and we just can’t afford that. I’ve spent so many hour looking for part time or work from home jobs that would let me do it but with no luck. I realize that I’ve still got a few months with him but the thought of leaving him to go back is so depressing x
I am the same. I would love a year off, but we are buying a house and I just can’t afford to live off maternity pay so I’m going back after 4 months 😢
