for having a child?
Did you sit down one day with your SO and discuss a strategy? Or was it more along the lines of, you have a job, I have a job, lets do it. Did you find it harder to find a house after the birth of a child (I assume money would be tighter). What sacrifices did you make? Did you somehow come up with a way to make money or borrow more?
I am getting married in May and we still rent. Our APT is a good two hour commute for the Mrs to her job in NYC. Its getting to be a little much for her and we are planning (wanting) to move after the wedding. Is it best to have the kid first then move or dump a fat down-payment down on a house and start a mortgage before the baby.
