Is anyone else stressed $ wise?
I'm a full time grad student and when baby arrives in July, I'll still not be working, and prob go part time in the fall...its a lot to put upon my husband's shoulders
I just have to think positive, but I can just imagine all these costs I haven't thought about that will arise when baby arrives

YESSSSSS, I am totally and completely panicking!!! I have no idea how we're gonna get through 8 months on 1 salary and no savings....I have looked into every kind of assistance possible. I guess we'll make it somehow.....

Re: Is anyone else stressed $ wise?
YES!! Especially since I won't be working once this Lil one comes!! Luckily my hubbies weekend summer job starts up in March/April but that means he'll be working 7days/week! If we can make it till the summer then we'll be okay but I think its only natural to stress out completely!!

Re: Is anyone else stressed $ wise?
YES! I had it all planned out & then DH was laid off in November. He has a new job now, but I had to use some of the money we saved to cover my maternity leave while he was off. Now we have to figure out how to afford my maternity leave while buying clothes for the baby & a few odds & ends we'll need before he gets here. Too much stress

Re: Is anyone else stressed $ wise?
daycare/baby expense will be taking a huge chunk of my salary, and the short term disability i bought is only 6 or 8 weeks so i'll be hurting but the baby is so worth it i just cant stress about it
