Hi mamas,

I wish I had someone to talk to about this in real life, but I don't want my friends/family to become bitter toward my husband.

My husband was officially out of the Marine Corps on Feb 1st, about 2 weeks ago. Before that he was getting paychecks but he was on "terminal leave" aka paid vacation since December 18th. I have a friend who said he would hold a great job for him that would start in January but ended up falling through.

I am 16 weeks pregnant and we have a 21 month old. I work full time and carry the health insurance.

He has applied for a couple jobs after I have brought it up as nicely as I possibly can but he is clearly irritated at me when I ask. However we are about $1200 short every month if we just have my income. Our very bleak savings will only hold us over about 2 months like this.

If he was actually trying hard to get a job this would be totally different, however he stays up until 3-5 in the morning every night playing video games and is asleep when I take the baby to daycare at 6:30. I imagine he must be sleeping in pretty late.

He has no sense of urgency to take care of his family and we are in financial CRISIS! he has resources to help him get a job because he is a veteran but when I suggest that he gets frustrated and mad.

We have been married for over 5 years and our almost 2 girls need us to take care of them!

What would you do?
