Baby budget
Show your support
Oh dear girl, it’s not looking good if he’s one of those 50-50 guys. You’re gonna end up fed up of his penny pinching stinginess, full of resentment and will end up leaving him. Most normal couples would have a plan for this long before baby was born. You would discuss maternity leave, how long can you afford to take off, how will the bills/rent etc be covered? Is he expecting you to still pay half from your maternity pay? What about when you’re a SAHM on mat leave? Will he give you a set amount of money every month or will you have access to a joint account where you can use it to buy things as and when needed? If he’s complaining about putting more in now, wait until you put him on child support! 🤣
@Neena I was always independent and had my own money so I am not depending on him and I am also self employed so currently someone is covering me at work but I do have decent salary. But honestly I don’t feel like paying more then him. I am the one who is taking care of the baby and he is away most of the time, because he is making money for ‘us’ but I don’t see any of that money. We never discussed it before and I agree it was a mistake, that Is why we are in this situation now. Also we are together, so I am not asking for child support, but I do expect more from him.
There is no mine or his money. It's our money. It doesn't matter if I bring it in or he does. We know what bills we have and what we need.
Me and my partner do it where I pay the bills ect and he gets the food shopping and stuff we might need during the week🤍 Girl I get the job side of it! Please message me 🤍x
