[quote=Anonymous]We were in what sounds like a similar situation and I decided to SAH for 1 yr. Well, 1 yr passed and it worked out well for everyone so now I am continuing. I personally think its better for a 0-12 MO to be at home with mom (or dad), but I also think you don't want to dig yourself a financial grave by staying home. For us the compromise was that we only saved a modest amount into a 401K but that was it, and for me this was a very worthwhile tradeoff to stay home. If we had my income we also would have been closer to purchasing a house. Other factors involved in the decision was that I really, really wanted to stay home and I didn't love my old job. My husband got a large raise this year so I am continuing to stay home bc we have extra cushion. You can also go back and see how it goes for a month?[/quote]
