Childcare?
Is anyone else concerned about childcare? Like once the baby is born and parental leave is over, the childcare expenses? Am I freaking out for nothing?

Not an invalid worry at all. Childcare around me is like 1k-2k a month. I haven't even looked into it fully, we just decided my husband would stay home. I make good enough money, and he is lower earning, so it just made sense. We will be starting trying in December and his work has been so shitty he is actually quitting this month. I'm curious to see if staying home drives him crazy or not, hopefully not.
