I am a stay at home mom and hve been since the weekend b4 my dd (almost 6 mo.) Dont get me wrong i love spending all the time with my daughter, i get to work with her and she is pysiclly ahead of what most babies her age are (probly cuz i work with her all day) but i am also getting bored sitting at home all the time. (i would have been working but the sitter i had lined up for 2.50$/hr. cancelled cuz she has a bunch of toddlers too and wanted to be able to take them to paks and the zoo ect...she almost cried when she told me too) But i want to do something my husband cant afford daycre for me to go look for work and there isnt anyone to watch her while i look. is there at home stuff i could do i havent been able to find anything that seems legit.

I stayed home with my baby for the first year, and couldn't wait to get back to work because I felt bored and lonely with no one to talk to. I love my daughter, but I could hardly wait for the baby stage to be over. I have alot more fun with her now that she's a couple years older. But I found that I wanted to be with her more as she began to talk and her personality developed. As she turned two, then three, I realized how totally heartbroken and desperate I'd become to stay home with her. The boredom of the baby stage will pa__s as they grow up. It's really hard to go back to the "stay at home" status once you get used to a two income home. Think long and hard before you make that switch, as you may regret it later. Have you considered joining a playgroup with other stay-at-home moms? Or start your own? The support of other women is really priceless. Taking care of a child is really looked down upon in our society, so being with other full time moms can help you remember how truly important your job as a mother is.

What about waitress for a couple of hours when your husband gets home so you dont have to pay anyone.Its fast money and it gets you out the house for a little bit.

i forgot to mention that i live in a very small town (about 200 people) the only other mother in or just outside of town that has a baby within 6 mo. of my baby just happens to be my cousin and she will be returing to work after 8 weeks off all the other children are pretty much scool age and it seems that there are no full time stay at home moms like me

Can you do like what iam doing? i have 2 kids at home and pregnant (8weeks) ever since i was pregnant with daughter i have been babysitting other kids on my home, i make between 140-190$/week. its extra money and i stay home with the kids. And beleive me it keeps busy, especially having 6toddler running in the house. I know you want to get out of house, but you also want a second income in. Give it a try put adds up and see if you can get any business. and beleive me you daughter will have advantages in the long run, to have other kids around.

That would be a good idea but my cousin that i mentioned earlier is taking her son to the center at her work (or right by it im not sure) that would only leave a friend that isnt due till mid dec. at that it most likely would be a once in a while thing but thanks for all the great ideas
