Pros and cons on being a stay a home mom? Thinking about quiting my job and doing online classes.

I love being with her all day but being a stay at home mom can be stressful. I'm starting classes next month.

I'm a stay at home mom who does classes online. My pros and cons may be different then yours. You may like doing things that I dislike about being a SAHM.

my biggest issue is not having money to spend how I want. budgeting isn't fun and I never had to do it. I love witnessing every single milestone.

To be honest, It is the most rewarding and frustrating thing I've ever done! I love seeing her grow and knowing what she is doing and eating everyday... she and I have an amazing bond, I know her SO well! The cons are I've worked my whole life, being productive, being able the finish tasks are vital to my mental well being... and as a sahm I'm finding myself frustrated because the house is always needing cleaned, dishes and laundry are always needing done, I feel like nothing is ever finished... so I've had to start projects, so I can 'finish' something... I also get a little stir crazy especially in the winter, because I stare at these same walls all day everyday, I'm a very social person and need to get out of the house! Sometimes just going to the grocery store and being in close proximity to other adults seems so exciting! 😂😅 I struggle sometimes with my identity, it's like being a mom can overshadow everything that makes you who you are... so I'm trying to make sure I try to find ways to keep who I was before having my daughter.

I'm just afraid that my depression will come back. But at the same time I want to be able to spend more family time and go back to school at the same time
