[quote=Anonymous]Buy a house before having the baby. Learn to do basic repairs on your own. Don't go into debt to furnish it immediately. Save enough for 3 months emergency fund before having the baby. Try to have a job with flexibility before the baby. Those are the things that will make your life as a parent much less stressful and enjoyable. I've given this advice to dozens of friends. One who didn't listen is miserable right now because she ended up with twins in a 2-bedroom apartment and will probably never be able to buy a house now. Without room for another adult they can't have the nanny stay with them so they're juggling baby care and zoom calls during quarantine. [/quote]
