ok here is my rant....my DH took that job that I posted about awhile ago...more $, better hours, closer to home...great everything except the change of insurance while pregnant. Well Tyler came almost a month early so that gave us a headstart and a little time....his new company wouldn't budge on immediate health coverage, we'd have to wait the normal 3 months. DH worked his old job a few days into Sept because then they would cover us the whole month and that overlap would meen we would only have to pay for COBRA (an extention of his old companies benefits) for 2 months. I was freaking out about this because it would be costing us $1400/month to do this! With me not working (disability pays nothing) this is tight...even with his raise we would be just getting by those 2 months (we just completely redid our downstairs adding another living room, 4th bedroon and 3rd bathroom= savings gone!), I asked DH OVER AND OVER if he was POSITIVE insurance would kick in Dec. 1st and he said yes! Well fast foward to today, a letter comes in the mail from his new company about our insurance coverage that will begin JANUARY 1st
Insurance starts the first of the month FOLLOWING 3 months of employment........I flipped on DH and am super stressed out..now I have to figure out how to come up w/ another $1400 for Decembers coverage. His words were "whats the big deal, we'll figure it out" ..this coming from a man who hasn't seen our checkbook for most of our relationship and has no concept of budgeting. So now I have to seriously consider going back to work full time NOW to jump on my companies health insurance for October. I am so pissed that because DH wasn't thorough enough in finding out the details of this new job I may have no choice but to leave my baby in less than 2 weeks and go back to working 12-13 hours shifts....all precious time lost.
