anxious about moving...

we have an offer on our house and my partner wants us to move nearer the coast (from the middlesex region to bournemouth region). i have a 3 year old and feel really anxious about moving - though i said i woudl do this for him if he really feels he needs a change. he also has 3 other children from previous marriage and i think he will miss them. he does seem so much happier when they are around - though i find he lacks a lot of patience too. i think he finds the noise very stressful too and having people around him. i suggested we find something local and we try to get some other investment down that way to see how we like it but he seems to be adamant he wants to move. what are people's experience of moving (i have moved around different countries and areas around britain before but this is the first time i feel really anxious) . thanks in advance.

Hi Deals
We made a big move in October from Essex to Lincolnshire and I have to say it was me that took the longest to settle!
Does your OH have a job to go to when he gets there? My biggest concern was getting everyone else settled, kids in school etc, then I could start looking for a job.
Talk about your concerns to him, its a big move for all of you, and although I am sure you will settle in just fine when you get there it is a daunting prospect and you want to be sure. The last thing you want is to be moving again just as your LO starts school.
Good luck

Hi
you dont say why your husband wants to move or how he will get to see his children with a three year old of your own you wont want to travel a lot to visit them. is he just feeling down at the moment does he think he will be happier else where and why? You really need to sit down and talk to him about his reasons but I think you need to do what feels right for you I dont think you should move unless it is right for all of you?0
