Vent post- i am 25 and my husband is 30 in January. We have been together for 4 years and I am dying to ttc. I’ve wanted kids for as long as I can remember. He says he wants kids too but that we’re not financially ready. We both recently got new jobs but I switched teaching jobs and got a huge raise and have done all these things to start saving and cutting expenses (switched to a cheaper grocery store, no leisure shopping, meal planning, packing his lunch and mine, I could go on and on. He has recently gotten a new job as well and after three paychecks we are combined making more than we were at our old jobs. We bought a house a year ago and are comfortably making the payments and making all our bills on time. For his new job we had to

Buy him a new iPad, iPhone 8 and $120 boots. I’m sitting over here cutting corners and not getting anything new for myself to save to show him we’re ready and he’s buying all this latest and greatest. I love him so much and when I think of carrying our child, that a part of him will be a part of me, I get emotional because that means so much to me I just wish he would be too.
