answers from New York on

Hi M.,
The "S" in sahm has nothing to do with marital status, it simply means Stay At Home Mom, meaning the mother does not have a paying, outside job. I can't imagine there would be many single at-home moms - no offense intended to any that there are.

Don't feel bad. It took me a while to figure some of the acronyms on here too. SAHM is stay at home mom, WAHM is work at home mom, DH is dear husband and MIL is mother in law. Those are the most common ones used. There are some others but at the moment I can't recall any of them.

M.,
SAHM means Stay At Home Mom, always has for as long as I have known it. Most single mom's work, but don't get me wrong their are those who don't. That being said if you are as stay at home mom it doesn't matter whether you are single, in a relationship, married, divorced, or widowed.
