Hubby and I have been hit with one financial blow after another in the past few months and now we think we should put trying for a baby on hold. We have no current debt, but our home is getting old and we found out yesterday we’re looking at close to $50k in repairs this year ahead of the roughly $15k we’ve already spent since April. Our savings will mostly be drained after this. I don’t want to talk to our friends/ family about it bc we don’t like sharing our finances and unfortunately that’s the only thing holding us back. We were nervous before, but knew we could swing it if I would be lucky and get pregnant, now we’re both just scared, upset and mad we have to push trying back again. It’s just hard, we went to a wedding where we got asked 10+ times “when are you having kids” or “better get on it” 🙄😡 we want to! But we also understand the importance of being financially comfortable with the stress of a baby and all the bills that come with them. We’ve heard a million times if you wait for the right time you’ll never have kids, but now is just so stressful for my husband especially. I’m afraid getting pregnant would crush us both with anxiety. Just venting and heartbroken ☹️ Friday we were so excited I’m ovulating this week, today we know it’s just not a responsible decision right now.
