Im a ftm due in july... im waiting for my job to lay me off... today at brunch fil decided to talk about my current situation. He told me its a blessing and that i should stay home tor 1 year w baby.... i explained that my school loans kick in to be paid in November and thats not realistic. Now obviously if i stay home... no daycare costs.... i can collect unemployment because i was laid off... i can find more time to clean and do stuff atound house... hubby was not happy at this conversation and feels slighted that his parents discussed this at lunch. Im in the middle and would love to stay home for 1 year but i don't forsee it happening...

Any sahm who can tell me pros and cons based on personal life?
