Have name changed as DH knows my regular posting name.
I went back to work part time last October. My eldest 3 DS's were in school and DS4 at nursery in the afternoons which meant finding a childminder, which we did.
Very long story short the childminder was incredibly unprofessional and it came to the point that I was going to have to give up work and go back to being a SAHM. This wasn't a problem for me at all.
However, DH thought a great idea would be for him to become a SAHD. So after a lot of discussion and his great positivity we went ahead with this.
BUT he is miserable as a SAHD and is getting stressed out by the whole thing. His eyes have been opened as to what I used to do all day and he has become snappy and irritable.
The line of work I am in has become very accounts based, when i started I had little to do with regards to figures but now I spend a lot of my day doing accounts.
I hate figures, have never been mathematical and work is now so stressful as to be a nightmare. I feel anxious all the time and have panic attacks. DH knows this and agrees I should find something else that doesn't involve figures.
I think the best solution would be for him to go back to work (he can get back in his old place with no problems) while I become a SAHM again until DS goes to school and then look again at work, perhaps do my Masters in the meantime.
I am so confused. I don't know quite how to broach it with DH, he was so excited about being the at home parent but I don't thi
nk it is quite how he expected it to be.
What would you do?
