[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP again. To clarify, I call it babysitting, not DH. I call it babysitting when I have both kids to myself too. DH does get most of the wake-ups now. But kids don't always go back to sleep when you want them to, so sometimes, there's a child in our bed climbing over us as we're trying to sleep at 6am.

DH makes under $200k, as do I. So while that's enough to pay for a $200 a month gym membership with childcare, it's not enough to eat takeout or go to brunch with other SAHMs every day. I know the negotiating sounds odd, but it's my attempt at fulfilling DH's dream while curing my own baby fever and maintaining a manageable life.

Yeah, I think I just need a different solution to getting over baby fever.[/quote]

It sounds like your income is necessary to maintain your standard of living. In your case I'm not sure if staying home is really a long term option. Have you guys done the number crunching? Also, just as an aside, the solo vacation sounds like a great idea in general.[/quote]
