Would you just QUIT with a baby on the way?

DH went back to work the next day after the evening DD was born and we were living remote with no family and i just coped.

I think just like BJ said - it would be nice for him to have some time off with #2 to help.

pink palace....hubbie took 1 week off and spent his whole day with me in hospital and when home to help with kids

oh thats sweet. I got visits on his lunch break !lol

maybe you could apply for jobs for him IFYKWIM...you know what kind of job he's interested in....write the letter and send them in for him. I did it for Jed and he got a job within a week of doing it
BUT

I do like him taking his leave when you have bub and then quiting....he could also use that time to look for a better job

Maz - yeah i think i might run that by him. and then he can give his notice whilst on annual leave. i wonder if he can do that?

in my opinion take all holiday leave sick days then give notice heck he has earned all that time off why wait it. my hubbie would do this if he wasnt on casual.

I used to think when it came to work, DHs happiness is more important than money, but that was before he was unemployed and we had no money and could barely pay the bills. Then neither of us was happy - we were just stressed and angry about the situation we were in. Of course if its a choice to leave a job where he is not happy to go to one that will make him happier, well that's different. DH did that before we had Matilda - left a high paying job in the mines to come home and work for a lot less. But we are both happier now, albeit a bit less well off.
