[quote=Anonymous]DH & I were at about 100k in our first year of marriage. Then he was un/underemployed for a year and we made 80k that year - also when our first was born. We're now well above but yes, I've been there with a child. I think if you're both working, then a licensed in-home, taking public transit, living in a small one or two bedroom in the burbs, and eating bean & cheese burritos for dinner a couple times a week is the way to go. It can be done but just be very watchful of shopping habits. I think it's less of an issue if you both work and are busy but having an unemployed spouse at home all day, bored and seeing all the potential projects for the house can easily get out of hand with purchases you don't actually need and can't really afford.
