Is it a sin for women to work outside of the home?

My baby is due on June 14th right at the end of the school year. I plan on working until then and then taking at least a year off of school. My district does allow for a year off to care for each child and at the rate I'm going, that'll be many years to come. I have a 20 month old and a 6 month old right now and when the baby is born in June my 6 month old will only be 10 and 1/2 months old. Of course I have a 12 year old daughter who helps out and a 8 year old son and a 6 year old daughter also. Both my husband and I come from large families. My mom and dad had 13 children together and my husbands parents have 10 children together. Nevertheless, we wish to accept God's word as truth and believe that children are a blessing and who cuts off blessings. Thanks for the words of encouragement. My husband doesn't mind if I work or if I stay home, he leaves that decision to me. I do make sure that home is taken care of however.

What a blessing that you can take a year off to care for your baby! You have a lot of little ones. I know that can be tough! It is good that you have a 12 year old to help though. Wow, both you and your husband did come from large families! There was only me and my sister growing up. So did you make up your mind growing up that you wanted a large family?
Yes children are a blessing! They are also used of the Lord to test and refine us. I'm sure you know that!
Well I hope you come around and visit with us now that you are a member here. I would like to get to know you better.
Blessings, Paula

Hi Ayanal,
I'm glad you are sharing with us here on the forum :)
Your family sounds wonderful.
It sounds like you have put a lot of thought and prayer into what you are doing.
I will say I don't know how you do it, but it sounds like you have a very helpful extended family, plus your older children, and an agreeable husband to boot ;)
You and Paula both must be exceptional women to mother so many children.
I will pray for you and your family.
mercy, peace, and love
Kat

Not sure if someone said this verse, but I will go ahead and say it. "With God All things are possible." Realize there are no limits and there is no boat. With God anything can be done and accomplished. I know this from my own personal life. ONe of these days, I will have to share my full testimony with you all. But the Spirit has said this is not the time yet.
Best of Gods blessings on your life. Keep us updated.
Sincerely,
Anne C. McGuire
