SAHM financial questions

I have 2 part time jobs at the moment totalling at 18 hours. I'm thinking of giving up one of them once DC2 arrives and I finish mat leave next year. It would mean on working 3 hours a week but it's in a job a love the the hourly pay is very good. My hope would be that I could get one more shift at this job when something becomes available (its a small organisation).

I'm mainly looking for advice as what to do re pensions etc to make sure that I don't trip myself up later in life. Does anyone have any other advice re financially?

I'm in a very fortunate situation in that DH has a very good job and we can get by financially if I drop the other job and haven't been happy in the other job for a while.

Pay into a private pension.

And make sure that the child benefit is in your name as that counts towards NI contributions for your state pension.

Child benefit in your name is the main one that springs to mind, for NI contributions.
