Any mummies here who used to be working full time converted to stay at home mom and is feeling a little lonely, sometimes stressful and feeling guilty of not being able to earn on their own? I don't wanna be selfish, my kids needs me but each time I wanna spend, I gotta ask husband. Not that he minds, I do. I feel guilty. I used to be very independent. Spending on my own, never asked him for money. He prefers me to look after the kids myself. He said, "if you don't, I'll quit and look after them while you work"

I can relate. I am still adjusting to being a stay at home mom. I enjoy it a lot but like you, i miss earning and spending money i earned. So, me and my husband had a compromise. I got a home based job so i can enjoy the best of both worlds. Maybe, you can suggest this set up to your hubby.

I am doing some academic writing for a friend. You can find a lot of home based work via outsourcely.com and virtual coworker.com
