I would hold onto your job for dear life right now. You guys should budget. The flexibility is great. I’m sure you could make more money elsewhere for a lot more hours and a lot less flexibility. Can your husband take kids to appointments? This seems like a scenario where it makes sense for you to partner and he makes the greater money so you can do the higher amount of childcare duties. Once kids are older in around five years have the conversation again. Or ask for a raise at some point?
