[quote=Anonymous]OP I wish you had responded re: did he pay for things you would normally pay for while you were on leave. I think that during the period when you had no income, he should have picked up the expenses. That's reasonable and makes it seem less like your marriage is a financial transaction. Imagine if your husband was a general contractor and whenever he fixed something around your own house, he presented you with a bill - even a 50% bill of what he normally would charge. That wouldn't feel very good would it? I mean it's his OWN house and he's charging you? I guess I would feel kind of the same if my spouse charged me for caring for our OWN child. But yes, if my spouse was basically disabled for four months with no income, I would pick up the expenses. [/quote]
