We have savings but they are not totally for TTC. We should be able to buy most things for the baby without dipping into our savings, but we will see how silly the spending gets.

We are only planning on having one child so I will probably go a bit mad.

We put aside £500 a month aside from when we found out I was pregnant to then use to top up maternity pay.

We bought everything in the 9 months of pregnancy to prepare for Henry's arrival. We tried to buy wisely and concentrated on the essentials and got luxuarys and clothes as gifts when he was born.

This time round we're not planning on saving as we should be ok. Xx

Nope, I don't really need anything except a few new cloth diapers. Exclusively breastfeeding, cloth diapering, etc take the expense for the first year way down.
