Show Notes
Before the baby comes put money away to pay for any healthcare costs and/or unexpected expenses. You can always spend the money later if you don’t need it. For us, we put $5-6K away in savings for lost income while Danielle was on maternity care. We ended up not needed it and put it on our house a few months after the baby was born.
