I didn't expect to see so many supportive posts thanks girls - you make me feel so much better about the whole situation

well yeah, would be nice but getting pregnant is almost like winning a lottery already, right?

It's posts like this that make me love this forum. Sometimes it really is enough to drive you up the wall having everyone telling you what you can and can't do, what you should buy, all the adverts thrust into your face. Speaking to other girls about these things has really kept me sane!

Totally agree

Its good to speak to "real" people rather than books and adverts telling us what we should/shouldn't do.

As we know the right time is when we decide when we are ready to have one even saving yeah if you can do it lol but it'll only last for a certain length of time I don't think really having themoney to have a baby is the answer yeah you need a bit but aslong ad ur willing to care and love and look after baby that's all it comes down yeah you need things for baby but as you say second and or cheap stuff do babies lol no amount of money wheather low or high can do it I love being a mum even thou I can't be her everyday or when we go out makes me think that if I'm not going to do it now she's not going to grow u wanting all the tym or ask for expensive gifts. I do buy her if I buy baby so if I get baby bottles I get her a cup or a top something she can use I can't wait till lo arrives to

I feel a lot better after reading this post!
OH and I are still at uni (though I'll be taking a year out) and have been really worried about how we're going to afford all these massive extra costs.

Was in tescos today, and was actually quite surprised at how much nappies cost! I honestly though they were going to be REALLY badly expensive, but no I think we'll manage.

It's true though, when is the right time to have a baby? We'll find the money from somewhere and we'll manage
And it'll be worth it cause we get our child at the end of it x

yeah i know the nappies are so good from tescos i bought some pampers the other day and amy ust leaks right threw them so having to change her more with pampers, i love tescos nappies as she can have them on a few hours and there not even that wet compared to when she weres pampers i would love to be able to afford to shop in next for her the oly time we go in there is if shes been giving vouchers but i find asda and tescos have a nice range too i love all the disney stuff lol an she chooses what she wants too.over the year i think ive only spent between 100-150 on clothes brand new the rest is what my friend got given for me off her friend lol and there was alot of nice stuff in it.
