Having a baby is the most rewarding experience thing that can happen to a couple.
Try to watch your money because it is easy to get caught up in an emotional fueled trip.
Lots of couples understandably ignore their budget during this time.
But when you ignore your budget you tend to make the other financial aspects of your life very difficult.
In order to establish and maintain your budget will require some sacrifice on your part.
When you create your budget make it a realistic one.
You may find that you won't be able to eat Steak as often as before.
But, your new baby is certainly worth your sacrifices! So, Create a Budget: Get yourself a pad and pencil.
Make a list of the furniture that you will need to get for the new Baby.
I'd make 2 columns.
One column is for the real necessities like a crib, stroller and baby crib bedding sets.
I include baby bedding sets because I believe that sleepers are MUCH safer than blankets.
The necessity column can be named "Need" The other column I'd name as "Want" It should have a dresser, changing table and a high chair etc.
You know, things that you could make do with other furniture if you had to.
As you work on your budget, you can always move items from the want column to the need column when you find that you can.
Looking for furniture: When you start shopping for Baby Crib Bedding Sets, you will find a large assortment of sets available.
And even if you think that matching the crib or the new baby theme may seem important, the real critical thing is the Safety of your new Baby.
Keep in mind that the crib is probably where the baby will spend the most time.
The new baby will not only sleep there but will stay contented for hours watching the mobile.
While looking at the bedding sets, make sure that they are made of materials that are not harmful in any way.
Read the Labels carefully! Remember that it is best not to put pillows, stuffed toys or even stuffed bumper pads in the crib.
You might think that a stuffed toy is safe but inside the crib they have been linked with SIDS.
One of the reasons that I like sleepers instead of blankets is that blankets can get caught up around the head and face.
Again, the key word is safety.
