Hello,

I have just left my job to be a SAHM and focus on my family. My son is almost 2 and have wanted to do this from the start, but have only been able to do it now as my partner just got a big pay increase. Now that I've done it, I'm worried if I've made the right choice for me and my son 😂 I'm hoping it just takes some adjustment. I know we won't be bored as we have lots of classes and social activities to do in the week. Basically just want to know others experiences of staying at home, good and bad 😊

Thank you!

Are you married? Do you own or rent?

Do you share finances? Do you have equal access to finances?

Basically financially protect yourself.

We're getting married next Novemeber. We own and have a joint bank account, however I also have a separate account with savings in. My partner definitely doesn't seem like the type to scam me and our son with money, we've been together for a long time, but I know it's always sage to protect yourself
