Hi HF,
I agree with Annie, find the best attorney you can afford, and yes stashing some money away isn't a bad idea. So many women end up getting "scr*wed" or settling for less than what they should. AND the one thing you don't anticipate is your dh getting HIS panties in a wad! You never know how someone will react when confronted with something like a divorce, plus once he starts talking to an atty, they might advise him to "go after you", or try to get you to settle for less. You just never know. My father was an atty., and I heard all kind of weird things, and attys can be viscious, cut throat, and take you completely off guard.
Also what crazyt said, health coverage is expensive, better be looking into the cost, esp. if you have asthma or any other condition that will be considered "pre-existing", more than likely, it won't be covered, at least for the first year.
Also, think about how you'd be telling the kids, how they'd take it, and what if any mental health care they'll need to deal with it.
Good luck with your decisions.
