Answer

Keep saving a bit longer. The more you have saved the easier and less stressful your life will be once you have a baby. No rush 🙂

Answer

If you are saying your relationship is good now that makes me think you have recently had some major downs. If you are good stay good for a little bit. DO NOT press the baby issue. Money doesn’t buy happiness but also if you had a chance to be financially stable prior to having a baby then definitely wait it out a little
But. Even a year of saving would help. But honestly maybe a little more. I’m about to have baby number two and even though we are completely financially stable I am fully aware of all of the little things you have to pay for with children and surprises that may arise so I am freaking out! And we aren’t struggling at all (I’m not bragging but we are 30 and 31, and very prepared for this. I would not have had these children too much younger). I think you should wait until you are 25.... and if you are scared that your marriage won’t last until then without a baby then it’s not fair to bring a baby into this world under that muck pressure. 9/10 times a baby breaks that semi unsteady relationship not the opposite.

Answer

It depends on A LOT. My husband and I waited a few years and our financial situation is still just as bad. So we went for it. Money is always changing but family is forever. And we didn’t want to wait too long. It’s also our first baby. I think it’s different starting a family vs. having your 3rd or 4th kid knowing you can’t afford it.
