Staying at home to be with your children is a major sacrifice, but one I have done without any regrets.Before I had my first child, my life with my husband was carefree and we could basically please ourselves every day (apart from having to get up and go to work of course!).

I think being a Stay at Home Mum is becoming a thing of the past which is a real shame. I knew even before I met my husband that if I ever had children I would do everything I could to be at home with them, just as my Mum did for us she was always there in a morning to see us off to school, and she was always there at night w...
