Default Re: How expensive are kids, really?

Thiers alot to consider money wise but sounds like you know a little about what your getting into already my advice is too go garage saling while pg & get as much as you can once baby comes you may not feel like it. Other is once they get older consider school lunches & with 3 growing girls myself they eat alot I cant even imagine boys!!!

Kids & babies are so worth thier expense though oh ya & if your kids have braces or glasses so far I only have 1 with glasses that cost around $100 a month for new lenses & eye visits oh ya & we paid alot driving her to drs visits out of town & she had 2 surgries probably spent well over 5k on her eyes that includes the motel rooms & eating out too!!! But she is not cross eyed & her vision has improved so its well worth it her eyes are priceless!!! Oh ya & when they are first born thier hospital cost we just paid like $30 a month tell it was paid we did the same w/ the childrens hospital.

So thier are hidden costs but they are very very well worth IMO
