[quote=Anonymous]OP, Could you let her know consistently what hours you will need during leave so she can look for supplemental work during that time? You are under no obligation, but it sounds to me like she just wasn't thinking this through and if she was counting on that money she may look for a new position (even if it is unfair for her to make that assumption), potentially leaving you in a bind. If you want to keep her (and I would try to avoid changing childcare and adding a sibling at the same time), giving her a set schedule would make it easy for her to pick up extra work, especially if you can give her friday afternoons/evenings off (fridays and saturdays are the most popular date nights). It might also help to let her know now whether/how much you plan tonincrease her rate once she takes over baby care, and when that increase will start so that she can plan on that bump to her income as well.[/quote]
