I am so panicked about inflation and the cost of living with a newborn on the way. Me and my fiancé didn’t realize we would get pregnant so fast and it just seems like the world is so pricey.

I have a really good amount of savings thankfully and we both have great work from home jobs so we are going to try our best to have the baby home with us to avoid paying childcare. My mom also offered to watch the baby once a week as well. I’m just so stressed with the cost of living. I’ve already been saving extra money each paycheck so we will never be short supplies im or anything but life itself is so pricey.

Again we didn’t realize we would get pregnant so fast. I have a little over 16k saved and don’t want to touch that if possible and that’s not including my two staches I am saving for supplies. My fiancé is also going to get a second job at Fed ex on the weekend and just save thag money he makes. I know we will be okay but life is already expensive and then add a newborn and I’m like beyond stressed.

Luckily I have parents who help with what they can financially. We will have a baby shower and I’m holding out for supplies there. I’m very very thankful and blessed but it’s still stressful. I wouldn’t be able to do this on my own financially
