[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here again. I think we might start trying soon, but I'm think my biggest fear is that I'm worried about finances. We just bought our house last fall so I'm feeling pretty financially depleted after the down payment + reading about the costs associated with raising a kid. Should we have a certain nest egg set aside before we have kids or just go for it? [/quote] IVF is the $$$ of a year or two of daycare. Adoption is 2-3$$$ years of daycare. You can't afford to wait if you really want this. Although take it from someone who had the same concerns, your life changes. You stop going to restaurants all the time, you travel less...the dollars generally figure out how to be there when you need them. You mold your life around the new human. [/quote] Huge +1[/quote]
