husband in our cozy 4 bedroom rented home in a quiet little town. The only thing im worried about is child care...we commute everyday 40 minutes to the city to work. But I have it in my heart things will work out. My husband said he will do what he has to as a father to make everything good and right. in the end and along the way things do work out. Just be commited to yourself, your baby and your mairrage, work hard and things will be good. Q&A: Are we ready to have a baby? We have discussed having children a lot lately and are in a financially stable postion to do so. Steady money and own our home but our issue is my husband is deploying very soon and would not be around for birth if we concieve now. I know we could get through it but we can't decide if we are comfortable enough with having our first while he is gone. Any advice? Q&A: Are we ready to have a baby? I think something that this website should talk more about and isn't listed on this "are we ready" question..is single parenting. I am in a situation unlike a lot of people who are on here I guess, because I have yet to see anything from a single parent. I am 22 and just got out of a very short disastrous relationship and found out I was pregnant a week later. I do not agree
