How to survive when the baby arrives?

So I live with my boyfriend now in our appartment and everythings going fine We can affort all the food and stuff but how do we make it when the baby arrives.

Answer #1

Get your boyfriend to find a good paying job. When they baby comes, taking care of he or she will be hard, but it will come natural. Make sure you have a good pediatrician, one that you trust, and that you can call whenever you think something may be wrong. I would also encourage you to breastfeed. I did, for a month, then she weined herself off. It is hard, and painful, but it is so healthy for the baby. Eat good, if you do breastfeed, thats where the good nutrients comes from. If you choose not to, then I would look into W.I.C because formula is expensive. My daughter is 7 months and I spend over 200.00 a month with her formula because it is a special brand. I’m telling you stuff you probably already know lol…Also the natural medicine works good, such as for earaches, the hylands earaches, teething pills, colic pills can be hylands too.

Answer #2

write down all of your bills. organize a payment schedule for them like when they are due and when you recieve them. cut out any extra spending, like parting, eating out too much, shopping, smoking, etc..be efficent. It will all work out. it always dose. don’t worry. just be smart and be on the same page with what you two are spending your greens on. Have a baby shower. you will get lots of needed things like diapers and wipes. those can be spendy. make sure you two have common priorities about the money. good luck! hope that helps!!!
