I have a 15 month old DD and will be going on maternity leave again in November before the arrival of DC2.
I won't be returning to work, as childcare for two children only 18 months apart in age will be akin to taking on another mortgage.
Anyway, we aren't minted by any means but we can afford for me to not work if we tighthen the purse strings and don't spend without thinking.
But every now and then my mind starts wandering and I freak out about not having my own money. It sort of feels like I'll be out of control, having to rely on DH for whatever handouts he can afford to give me.
Can you tell me how you cope, and if there's anything you have done to make a few pennies from home?
