[quote=Anonymous]I was in a mediocre job I couldn't stand, but it paid the bills. DH was fired from his job while we were TTC. Turns out I was a fertile Myrtle and conceived quickly. DH used the firing as a career change opportunity, but had to go through an unpaid training program for a few months. So we eked by on my salary that is really only fit for one person in this area, till DH was employed 3 months before the baby was born. To top it off, I had some health complications come up that were unrelated to my pregnancy that in still dealing with 5 months post partum. All of this timing was terrible, but I'm glad we didn't wait. We were both ready to start having kids and didn't let jobs or lack thereof get in the way. Now that we have a kid, we won't be making any more risky moves if one of us is unemployed again. [/quote]
