He got a call today for a temp-to-perm position through the same temp agency that found me MY job (which I adore), and he starts TOMORROW. He’s been out of work for almost 9 months now (he was laid off right after I found out I was pregnant), and it’s been constant stress and worry. I am so relieved right now - he’s also working towards an IT certification, so if he’s ever laid off again, he will have more options for work (and will still look for an IT position after he finishes his coursework).
I spent most of my pregnancy worrying my head off, so it’s nice to know that now I can spend my maternity leave concentrating on my son and not freaking out over whether or not my husband would have a job by the time I returned to work.
I know all about being stressed out about an out-of-work husband during pregnancy, but your worry lasted much longer than mine. I’m so glad for you that hubby got a job. What a relief!
