Stay at home mom.
Hi everyone,
I'm currently 24 weeks pregnant. I work part time at Home Depot doing customer service and get paid only a little bit over the minimum wage so I obviously do not make enough. My boyfriend is a general contractor, gets paid well but even then we are still having financial issues. The little money that I get from my job sometimes comes in handy. I actually enjoy working, even if it's a part time job at a retail store. I just can't see myself staying at home all day. My boyfriend keeps telling me to quit my job and he'll support me (he already supports me although I have a job) he wants me to take care of the baby and be a stay at home mom. I cannot see myself doing that, but then again I cannot stand the fact that I'm going to have to leave my child in the care of someone else. The only person I have is my grandmother, I consider her my second mom. I know she'll take care of my baby but I don't want to add any more stress. I also don't have a car, my boyfriend uses the only car we have bc he's from place to place all day. My grandmother is also not on the way to work and I feel like it's going to be so hard so make somethings work. She doesn't work, obviously, but has things to do at home which mean I cannot tell her to come to my home and take care of my child. I'm stressing out about this as I do not know what to do. Like I said previously, I can't stand being home all day PLUS, I cannot see myself depending competely on my boyfriend. I don't like that. Although I don't make enough I still know that I work for my money. Even if he's telling me to quit and offering to support me, I would hate to see myself asking him for money when I want or need something. we share my bank account, so both our money is combined which I don't mind. I just really need advice on whether I should just quit my job or make it through even if it gets hard. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank tou.
