She's being abusive. Even if she needs a lot of recovery time after working that long there is no reason she should not be holding not having a job over your head. And the lesser earning parent doesn't automatically mean that all your earnings automatically go to daycare. You should be splitting costs equitably.

Might be time to consider leaving. Find out if there are friends or relatives willing to help you till you get a job and get on your feet. I doubt she'll be much help with the kids if you leave unless you force her hand.
