We didn't because we didn't plan on having kids, which made my then-girlfriend's pregnancy quite the surprise. We've made it work and I couldn't be happier about the life and family we have now, but I'm not going to sugarcoat it, it's a LOT of everything - time, money, patience, energy. I about threw up when we toured daycares and realized how expensive childcare is. I started looking for a new job the same week and was lucky enough to find one that paid 20% more than I had been making. Even with that extra money, the first year was rough.
You need to make money to have kids, but then you need time to be with your family. It’s anyone with kids who has. Be realistic that one of you might need to take a step back while the other goes forward in their career.
