    We didn't save anything, I was at uni and just my husband earning, didn't change anything financially tbh. I can't believe you'd need 15k to have a baby, just stop paying for stuff you don't need. We got rid of our cinema memberships for a start, just changes like that

    We saved my wage as I lost it after the baby came for the 6month leading up to the birth.
    Forty and fabulous, well that's what my cards say....
