Becoming a parent

So this is my first time on here and I just had a few questions for some mothers. My boyfriend and I have been together 9 months (feels like 5 years) and have both of our lives figured out. We both have a plan of what we want in life and from each other. We are both wanting a baby but a lot of people and judge mental because I’m 19 and he is 23. I know I am young in age but I have my life figured out and on the right path my parents raised me right. My anxiety is making me second guess if we should try or not.

My question is for moms. What should be a good amount of money to set aside to start a family?

What are things I need to know before making a baby?

Any advice?
