That sounds fair to me about the role in the birth and the initial visit.

I don't know your financial situation, but I'd be a tad worried about his unemployment nullifying an expectation for CS! (Is he getting unemployment? Can he get a dinky job while waiting for a real one?) I don't know Australian law and, heck, I don't know US law on it yet. But I think you should be thinking about how much you need (20%?) and if you haven't yet, making sure he knows he will have to pay! And how would it work if he went back to France? You don't have to answer any of these questions, of course, if you know that it's fine for you.

My WH says I'm now all about the money. Maybe I am!

I am sooooo fuzzy headed! That's why it helped to get a whiteboard with all of the things I need to do before the birth. I feel so much better now. . . Practicing deep breathing! Better stick that on the list. smile

Glad you checked in!
