We had our 3 rd baby (planned) in December 2013. I found I didn't really need to spend any money out right for furniture as we already had it from other kids also had another boy so kept all my clothes from first son to reuse for second which means hardly had to buy any clothes for baby either. Also while I was pregnant I started to buy nappies, wipes ect while they where on special. Only just finished the stores nappies and his almost 5 mths. Congrats and all the best
Thank you for your advice. We have two daughters one is four and the other is 18months. I've kept all the clothes since we had our eldest as we always knew we wanted three, this one, while it was unplanned we are rapt. We have alltthe furniture so that is awesome. I like your idea if buying the nappies and stuff while on special as that will save us a heap. I guess I'm more wondering how you cope with bills and stuff. I work Parr time but will take time off when bubs is born just worried how we will cope without that extra money as things are tight as it is. Thank you for your congrats
