Hi Ladies!
I'm working on a masters degree in Electrical Engineering, and for some reason, the school said I needed to take a sociology class. Anyway, I was hoping some of you might be able to help me out, because I'd like to write a paper on mothers for the course project.
If you could provide me with the following information, it would be much appreciated:
1. Are you SAHM (stay-at-home-mom), work part-time (less than 40 hrs a week) outside of the home, or work full-time (40 or more hrs a week) outside of the home? If you work(ed) outside the home (either part or full-time), how soon after your children were born, did you return to your job?
2. Did you breastfeed, formula-feed, or use a combination of both with your children? If your children are weaned from breast or bottle, at what age did this occur?
3. Did you use cloth diapers, disposable diapers, or a combination of both with your children? If your children are fully potty-trained, at what age did this occur?
4. What are the current ages of the children referenced in the above questions?
I don't need alot of detail, unless you want to give it. I'll use myself as an example of what I'm looking for:
1. Currently work full-time. Went back to work part-time 6 weeks after Jeremy was born, then went full-time when he turned 6 months.
2. Breastfed for 2 weeks, then switched to formula (soy). Jeremy has not been weaned from a bottle yet.
3. Disposable diapers only, and he still wears them.
4. Jeremy: 10 months (adjusted age: 9 months)
Thanks for your help!
