Hi, I'm new here - wasn't really sure what area to put this in!
Ok, so my partner and I have been talking a lot lately about the fact that we need to start the ball rolling on having children. I'm almost 28 and I've been on the pill for over 10 years now and I'm worried that the longer we leave it we won't be able to conceive. So we have to get started now to minimise the risk of "being too late".
The issue I have, is that I have a pretty well paid job that I commute 1.5 hours to each way every day, if we were to start a family I wouldn't be able to continue to commute all that way and my partners wage wouldn't cover the cost of all of our bills now, let alone if we were to add children in to the mix.
How do others manage to have children and still afford to live a semi-decent lifestyle?
