[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My DH absolutely cared whether I had a career. He also under no circumstances wanted a SAHM. While both of us are specialized, neither makes a lot of money (100k each) and we really can't afford to SAH nor really can we afford more than one kid. [/quote] Would he care if he made 300k?[/quote] +1. You'll be singing a different tune if your DH earned $3300 to $500K.[/quote] Possibly, but my DH wanted 50% of chores/housework/kids. He's also seen too many SAHMs who just aren't good housewives (the cooking/cleaning/small household task part) and then want their DH to do all of that when he gets home. He'd prefer we both work and then we both do 50% of house items. But yes, I feel very stuck even though I don't feel low income. Just feel priced out of childcare. We make about 160k though. Only he makes 100k. We're having trouble saving enough for unpaid maternity and then the daycare afterwards. [/quote]
