Do you ask for personal money from your husband/partner? I'm a SAHM and he lives abroad even before we had a baby. When I got pregnant, he asked me to stop working but the thing is I hate this kind of feeling that I have to depend on him when it comes to money. I've been very independent before having a baby and now, I feel like I can't buy whatever I want. How do you deal with this?

yes. its very tough to ask for personal money from husband. so end up i cut down the expenses on buying my own stuffs but use excuses to buy for children. hee... but then i still do business online to get small income. at least i can share the burden with my husband and also get to pamper myself with food. not easy but luckily i do have savings before i quitted my job. when i have the free time, i really go out to do part time job in office. at least it help me to keep myself sane.
