DH of 1.5 years has lived in the same smallish village for his whole life (36 years). It is a nice village and most of his family are all settled here. I am in the forces and we have recently had a baby. I am due to go back to work soon and I'm dreading it. I have a great childminder lined up for 3 days a week and a fab MIL for other 2 days. DH will do the morning duty with DS drop off etc as I will be leaving early for 1hr+ commute. The thing I am struggling with is my DH's lack of flexibility. We could get a house at my work and rent our home out which would cover (and more) the mortgage payments, which we could then save up to buy a bigger/better house in 3 years time when I leave the forces. Basically I want to know if you think it's too much to ask for him to move with me, so he does the commute, i can do more and see more of DS during week and we can then put some money aside for our future?!
