Being financially prepared for a baby is just as important as being emotionally prepared. I definitely was not either one with my first child but I’ve since gotten my financial llan together, I’m including buying life insurance.

I feel like far too many people, men and women, overlook the importance of a will – especially parents! You’re now responsible for more than just yourselves and a will is a way to make sure that continues even if you’re not around to fulfill those duties to your child.

Great interview and advice for new parents. I couldn’t agree more about the life insurance and wills. These things can be difficult to think about, but in the long run it is always better to be prepared and this helps ease your mind a little. So much worry comes along with having a baby and family. This is one very smart way to feel a little bit more secure.

This is really sound advice, I wish I’d read this when I was pregnant with my little. I still need to make up a will!
