Where are we from and what do we all do?
Just to find out a bit more about everyone!!
I'm from Livingston, Scotland...just outside Edinburgh.
I worked as a childminder from when I was expecting Liam up until a couple of months ago. DH and I worked out we could afford me to just be a sahm until the kids go to school and then I could go back to work.
Now we are talking about dh quitting his job and working part-time once baby is born and I will work part-time as he feels he is missing out on so much and will give me a bit of a break when we have 3 on the go!!
Should also add I am almost 26 and have a 2.5 year old son, Liam, a 13 month old Daughter, Bella, and a 7 year old stepson Aidan.

I'm from London and I'm 24 and have an 11 months of daughter. We are now expecting number two which was planned as I and hubby didn't want a big age gap between our first and second. I work for the NHS.
im a qualified and registered veterinary nurse.
hope everyones well. this is my second baby so feeling alittle more in the know this time round.
I used to be an Account Manager for a Housing Association but after having my son decided to become a sahm as even though I only need childcare for 2 days a week it would cost ??1200 a month for 2 kids round here !!!!!
Hubby works as a police officer in London so does very long shifts, plus he's in the riot squad so works overtime even on his days off so I am home alone a lot as we car share and he takes the car !!

I'm 30, hubby 34. We live on the Worcestershire/Birmingham border. We have a 15 month old beautiful boy!
I have a cupcake business and also teach cake decorating classes!
I am a finance manager in Milton Keynes. Would love to be a sahm but it's more cost effective to work at the moment :roll: I would love to run and own my business that was creative like you MrsLD - very jealous!
I'm 32 and hubby 27. We live near middlesbrough with our 10 month old son. I'm due back to work from maternity leave in March and in 5 (hopefully) quick months will be off again with this little one. Dont think i'll be going back but not even thinking about it until the time!
We should be 8 months pregnant now but our little angel wasnt meant to be that time so fingers cross, this one is here to stay.
