Thoughts please ladies?

My partner and I are TTC our 1st (so excited) and I came off my pill 2 weeks ago.

I am a fully qualified beautician but haven’t practised for a few years and have been working in an office. I brought up that it may be a good idea for me to start booking clients again to build a base so I can have some extra cash whilst on maternity leave but he says he doesn’t want me to as I will have enough to do looking after the baby. I understand that but I feel like I still want to contribute and it made me feel a bit worthless to say to me to just stay at home with the baby.

Am I overreacting and are my hormones playing up or does anyone else for this is slightly unreasonable and old fashioned?

TIA XXX
