14 BEST REASONS TO BE A STAY AT HOME MOM

A lot of moms I’ve talked to agree that being a mom is literally one of the best things that happens to us in our lives – that’s not much contested – but there IS great debate over if the reasons to be a stay at home mom outweigh the reasons NOT to be.

We live in an entirely different world with entirely different opportunities and pressures than the stay at home moms of the past, and the decision is harder for us that it was for our grandmas (largely because it exists lol).

THERE ARE LOTS OF GOOD REASONS TO BE A STAY AT HOME MOM, AND HERE'S MY TOP 14!

In this extremely “non-judgmental” day and age, there is a heck of a lot of judgement going around. Moms might be some of the MOST judged people I know! If you don’t want to have a fight about formula vs breastfeeding, co-sleeping vs cry it out, or the pros and cons of any medical procedures, stay out of social media mommy groups! lol.

1) YOU GET TO RAISE YOUR BABY THE WAY *YOU* WANT

As we mentioned earlier; and I’m not saying that it’s impossible to breastfeed and work – because it totally is – but if you’re home with your baby it’s a lot easier.

2) BREASTFEEDING BECOMES SO MUCH EASIER

Your baby’s first smile, first step, first word… it’s such a special time and YOU CAN NEVER GET IT BACK. I remember an episode of the Modern Family where Mitchell was distressed that he was missing all Lilly’s firsts… and so he quit his job.

3) YOU GET TO SEE ALL THEIR “FIRSTS”
