T&P Please

edited August 2014 in September 2013 Moms
DH just lost his job.  I've posted a few places here that I'm planning to go back to school in September.  Everyone I've talked to has categorically agreed that I should still plan on doing that.  My job before mat leave was pretty dead end and meant lots of hours for very little pay (despite the fact that I needed a Master's to get it! Science sucks!).  So we may have to go on social assistance to make ends meet unless DH gets a new job soon.  We went from everything being great and looking wonderful to not knowing how we'll afford food and diapers past September.  And worse still he lost his job for a shit reason because of a manager who is playing politics and being a control freak.  I'm trying to be optimistic but it's tough.  TIA for your good vibes!

  • So sorry you're having such a difficult time :(. I really hope your hubby finds a new position ASAP so you can stay afloat. T&Ps for you and your family.
  • Thanks everybody. I hope things turn around for us quickly. Thankfully DH and I are on the same page so we can still have harmony in our house.

  • Many T&Ps. What type of formula do you use? Would love to send you coupons if I get them in the mail.
  • Thanks so much @KCLeaSLP. That's very sweet of you but we are still breastfeeding.  Hoping to transition to WCM soon. DS has some milk protein allergies so if we did formula it would have to be a specialized kind.  I will probably do a mix of WCM and breastmilk to keep costs down.
  • Sorry to hear that - it's always scary when things like this happen but you seem to have a good plan and a great relationship and i feel like things will work out for you guys. It's only temporary. Thoughts and prayers for you all!
