Me & my husband have a 3 year old DH, & we wanted to wait untill DH went 2 school b4 we had another child due to finances. I've just checked my finances & after everything gone out if we were to have the 2nd child I would be left with £80 a month.
I've also looked at my maternity leave entitlement and I would struggle on this. I feel devastated & really didn't want to wait longer. What do you all think,
Shall i go ahead or wait?me & my husband both work.

In all honesty, if we all put off having children until we could afford them, we'd be on the verge of extinction lol have your baby and cut your financial cloth accordingly Smile good luck!

What Mum said .

If everyone waited until we had enough money for children, no one would have them.

We couldn't afford ds, turns out when you have to you can. We get by ok, some weeks are tighter than others but we are ok.
