We own our house. Its a lovely house just a bit small for us now but not so small that we need to urgently move or anything but it'd be nice to have more space (one big bedroom with an attic room accessed via the bedroom where the baby sleeps)
What do you mean about being taxed at 40%? Sorry if I sound stupid here.
Wrong. It's £32k PLUS the £10k personal allowance. So assuming the OP is on the standard tax code she wouldn't have anything taxed at 40%.
He does sound very childish and petulant. Is it possible that he is in some way jealous of the LO...?
Hope you can get this sorted without too much (more) hassle. But's not fair that he gets to dictate terms - it should be a fair compromise.
Best wishes to you. x
Of course ...forgot about the personal allowance - sorry for giving duff information!:o
Roll on a few years and I developed a chronic illness and was retired on ill health grounds in my early 40's. I am so glad that I went PT and had that extra day a week when I was well enough to do what I wanted. If you can afford to I think spending time with your baby now is more important than the money. You will never get those days back. I hope it goes well for you.

That first Saturday was a complete revelation to him. I'd tried to make it easy- prepared bottles and lunch for our son. I came home to a complete warzone -the lounge was in chaos. son was sitting surrounded by toys giggling and OH was slumped on the floor exhausted. His first words to me "He's so much hard work" (He was actually a very good and happy baby
I smiled and said "So what's for dinner then?" (he'd previously given me a hard time if dinner was late or I wasn't on top of other jobs as he considered staying home with baby the easy option). Needless to say it was takeaway for dinner .....and he never ever again asked me "What on earth do you do all day"
