Hello -

I started this exchange in hopes to meet new friends that share similar things in their life relating to being a full/part time working mom.

My name is Jessica, and I have one son, Caden, who is 19 months old, and I am also 20 weeks pregnant. I work full time in Logistics. I'm 26 years old and married to my DH, Adam.

Hi Jessica!

What a great idea to start an exchange for working moms!

I'm Jen and I have one DD, Juliana, who is 21 months old. I have been married to my DH Chris for 5 1/2 years and we are thinking about trying for #2 within the next few months.

I work full time as a buyer/medical supply coordinator for the health services provider within my county's sheriff's office. Basically, I buy the stuff to provide medical care to jail inmates. :oP

Yay! What a good idea.
I'm Jessica, too, and have one daughter, Sadie, who is 14 months. I work as an Audiologist full-time and have been married for 3 years. No plans for number 2 anytime soon, maybe in a couple of years!

Wow! I was really happy to see this group, but really surprised there are so few members and only one post. It would be great if more working moms hopped on over here.

I'm Cate. I am mom to Joey (14 months old) and the editor-in-chief of a legal magazine. I work full time. I actually like working and can't really imagine my life--in any scenario--not having a satisfying career.

Thanks for starting the group. I'll keep checking back to see if more working moms join.

Hi Cate -

I'm with you, while I love spending time with my son, I also love having a career. I'm really not the SAHM type.

Fortuantely I do have a job that's somewhat flexible with hours and everything. I can imagine that being an editor in chief of a magazine can be a pretty demanding job!

Hi everyone! I'm glad some people finally found this exchange! I didn't see the posts until just this morning.

Hopefully we can get some good conversation going and this group will catch on!

Evan is 4 and a part time pre schooler. Anika is a sassy 17 month old. I'm 26 years old, and oh, we just got a puppy. Never a dull moment, but I love my life.

Hi !
I'm Christy. I work in the healthcare industry as a Radiology/Nuclear Medicine Technologist. I love my job as well, I feel it helps me feel more balanced - and makes me really appreciate the time I have with my family when I am home! I have two sons, one is 2.5 and the other is 10 months. Luckily I work swing shift so I work 4-2am seven days on seven days off.
