I think it's a great thing when a husband can support a family on his own and if he's doing so and she wants to stay home because she's tired or because she wants to step up and be a full time mom, yay for them. If you're not paying her bills you really have no say.

They just really don't mind her taking a break and they are happy to help out financially. This is my parent's first grand baby and they want the two of them to be the least stressed and most rested as possible. They rest is great for her because like I said she has been really exhausted as I believe she is still in her first or wrapping up her first trimester.

She has been absolutely fatigued and will get tired so easily and my family think it's best for her to stay home and rest ( my aunt was told to do that and did so) She is having a hard time with this feeling guilty. She has been reminded that it is not about the money and to not not worry about that... I am aware a lot of women work well into their pregnancies.. But I know some women have way more energy than others during this time. Do you think since money isn't an issue and the family want her to rest that she should just relax and stop worrying? I have read that the first trimester is the most tiring and then the third..
