I’m too broke. How do you do it?

Found out I’m 17 weeks pregnant. My baby is only 5 months old. They will be 11 months apart. I really don’t feel like we have the money to do this. I’m terrified. I make too much money for WIC even though it’s BARELY anything. No one wants to watch my two kids and daycare is damn expensive. How did you make it work?

Does dad work at all?

My 2 are 11 months apart and we rely on family to help out a lot. My little boy goes to nursery 1 day a week which helps massively too.

Mine are 17 months apart but we don't have any family around really. I lean heavily on my partner, especially with our toddler right after giving birth. Our two don't do daycare either and I found a job where I could work evenings from home but that's ending soon.. It's possible, but you didn't mention if you're single or not.
