I want to be a stay at home mom
Currently my husband and I both work. We both bring in the same amount of income and we do ok. I'm a lot better with money and I have a savings account but he actually just paid off his $18k debt in credit cards. I'm 14 weeks pregnant and I have communicated to him that I want to be a stay at home mom. He doesn't really seem to be on board with that. He says its a lot of pressure on him and that I should continue to work and take the baby to work with me (I would be able to do that since I'm a nanny) however I don't want to be watching someone else's children and my own also. We could definitely get by on his income alone but I think he feels it's not fair. I'm getting a little resentful of him not wanting to provide for us while I raise our kid and keep the house tidy. Am I being unreasonable? I've been hormonal so I'm not sure who's right in this situation.
Edit- we had discussed me being a stay at home mom before getting married, we have been together 11 years. Also, he does not help out with housework so on top of me working, I will be in charge of housework and probably buying all things baby. He's a great husband and attentive to me but when he gets home from home he likes to just sit and watch tv. He doesn't have a physically demanding job. He works at an office.
