I also joined your camp already. Have not been sterilising for 1 month. And yesterday pack up the steriliser to the store room. Feel good about it, a bit more time in the evening. Nice.

Not all women made to be SAHM. I know I am not. I know I am definitely a better mum when I come to work and only take care of them at night and on the weekends. Cos I appreciate the time spent with them a lot more, and I get to be so patient with my kids, and we get to do more things, cos we know times are limited for us. It's not easy to be a SAHM. My hubby knew what I am thinking and he knew I would never be one, or maybe I would, when the kids have grown up, then I want to stay home and be taitai
But honestly, to share with you, I really feel like I have been a better mum to my kids cos I don't have to face them 24/7. Even when they make me angry during weekends, I just turn away and think, never mind, I get a break on Monday morning, and then on, I never lost my temper on them.
And more importantly, I don't feel that I miss any of my kids' development milestones. Cos I monitor them very closely. I spend all my time with my family when I am not at work. I don't think I miss anything. For both my kids, I am the one who gave them solid for the first time, saw them flip/sit/crawl/stand/cruise/walk, saw my #1 done his first ever puzzle, he called mama and papa first, and he is definitely loves us very much and we are his preferred carer and friends. When I really want to spend time with them, I take leave. So it's been great for me so far. Having said all this, I gonna be thankful that I am so lucky to land myself a stress-free job and that I can knock off in time everyday.
It's all depend on yourself. If you are not sure, try to stay at home with your kids for 1 month or so?
Doesn't matter a SAHM or a FTWM, we are all great mum doing our best for our little ones. All the best! Jia you, ok!
