stay at home dads and finances

Has anyone got any experiance of dads as full time carer?

im hopeing to go back to work full time and my DH stay at home but we are worried about how it will affect us financaly i will be working school hours so only doing around 25hours and we dont want him to give up his job if we are going to be worse off
will tax credits help enough?
any input much appreciated

if you go to www.gov.co.uk you can do a mock claim for tax credits and it will tell you roughly what you are likely to get should you claim

oh er, well my hubby left his job. he was going to be a stay at home dad, 2 weeks later he cracked up and couldn't cope and is desprate to find a job.
