[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What was your career before you had OP, or what are the likely jobs you can get? This is why staying home often sucks for women. They put in the hard work when the kids are little, then some of their husbands expect them to magically get a job once the kids are no longer in the little kid stage. Meanwhile their career has been derailed so they can't get as good a job as before and the husband is spoiled and still expects the mom to handle most of the details of household and child management. [/quote] This. And +1 to the person who said you will need to build up your leave. Time for some very real talk with your DH about specifically what he will do. Starting with all daytime appointments and teacher conferences and sick kid days. Block off some time that you need to pursue your job search and leave him high and dry to handle things on his own during that time. [/quote]
