I am aching to have a baby but we have decided to wait another year before trying since I'm working on my Master's and we would like to be more financially stable. Will we ever really be ready? People say you're never ready and I'm worried that when we do start to try we'll have trouble. Am I setting us up for trouble by being so worried already? Q&A: Are we ready to have a baby? We have been married for almost 4 years now and together for almost 6. So it's no surprise that i started wanting a baby. but what if we're ready in lots of ways but worried about money. Do babies cost alot monthly? and also how do you really know if everything else is ready how do you know if you're ready to give up your alone time together? i guess we'll never be, but i just don't know. i guess that's what grandparents are for,haha. any suggestions? Q&A: Are we ready to have a baby? i know that my husband and i are ready. we were engaged for over a year and october last year found out i was pregnant. we just got married a few weeks ago and everything is going great. never leave your family out to help, i wouldnt be this ready for my baby in the next couple months without the help from my husband and my mother. we are getting ready to paint the baby's room in a couple
