[quote=Anonymous]We "practiced" our post-baby budget for a few months before he was born. In our case, it met setting aside our estimated childcare expenses each month--we put that $$$ into a savings account. In your case, why don't you set up a savings account and drop your paycheck straight into it, and live for a few months on your husband's paycheck alone? That will give you a really realistic idea of what it is like. Plus you get a little nest-egg at the end. I used mine to fund an extended (unpaid) maternity leave. In your case, you might use it to kick of a retirement savings account or something like that.[/quote]
