Feeling anxious about new partner and finances

[3011152gt]

hi everyone
I'm after some advice or maybe a sounding board.
I have met a lovely guy, we're very happy. both been through hard times and didn't expect to be settled again. There's a 10 year age gap and he already has 2 kids with a ex wife. Before he had a good job however he's been unwell and now has a job earning approx £16k a year. We'd like to get married and have more children however I can't see how we can afford it. I don't want to be working full time as I want to enjoy bringing up my children & I don't really have a career as such.
Its causing friction between us because his ex didn't work & he had a good job, he has CSA to pay so I don't see how we can afford more children without being irresponsible.
Am I over worrying?

If you always wanted to be a SAHM then you needed to work hard in advance and make choices that would leave you in a position to do that.

It's not the dads responsibility to fund the mum. It's a team effort and if you were sure that's how you wanted it then you needed to save and prepare for that yourself.
