I have only gone back to work one day a week anyway since having DS. All our money is worked out on just OH's pay with mine being a bonus so we will be ok. I am not sure what I will do after the baby arrives. OH wants me to stay at home and go back to work when the youngest is 3. I love that idea, I just need to check how much i have to work per year to maintain my registration.DFW NERD NO.656 DEBT FREE 24TH NOVEMBER 2010 TOTAL DEBT AUGUST 2007 £39000MFiT T2 NO.56 WE OWN [STRIKE]25%[/STRIKE] 31.5% OF OUR HOUSE SO FAR!0

sounds good.... is there anyway you could increase your hours while pregnant - to a) give you more maternity pay and b) give you more of a cushion....Achieve FIRE/Mortgage Neutrality in 2030
