<prompt> Human: We are both currently college students at a good university, we will be transferring home to an even better university and moving in with our parents to make it easier on us not that we can afford an apartment back home anyways. Neither of us will have to take out student loans to finish undergrad and living with our parents from May 2015 until May 2016 is an absolute given. Food and living costs will be covered by our parents for me and my girlfriend, but Im going to plan that we cover the entire cost of the baby whom will be joining us around September.My gf currently has about 3,000 saved and I have 7,600. I am working a 10hr job for the rest of the semester 19hrweek that will probably net me around 2500 or 3000. Once I move back home and start university there I will be working a minimum wage job at the university presumably for the duration of our stay If I get enough hours. Once we move back home my gf is planning on working at an office, but Im not sure how much she will be doing this on account of the whole pregnancy thing.I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT TO PLAN FORGiven the fortunate situation we are in, I want to make the most of what money I will be able to earn. I have no idea what having a baby even costs or how to plan for something like this and would really appreciate any knowledge or tips from experience that reddit has to shareAssistant: Just wanted to give you a general comment from another parent OP, but if shes due in September shes edit still very early in the pregnancy. Before you go making a huge living change you need to give the dust time to settle. Also, being horribly realistic the statistic is that one in five-ish pregnancies will miscarry actually its one in three if you include the ones too early to detect. Give it a few weeks here before making anything final.Human: I hate to say this, but uon_island_time is right. Saving up is not a bad idea, but keep in mind that its still early. She JUST found out shes pregnant, likely within the last few weeks. I found out in December 2008 I was pregnant with my August 2009 baby, so thats how I know roughly how far along she is! I have personally miscarried twice -- once at 8 weeks, once at 910-ish weeks. Save, but dont count your chickenbaby before it hatchesis born.Assistant: Thank you, you guys are right about that. Just an anxiety-ridden young adult here who has a bad habit of overplanning everything  <response>: Overplanning everything is not a bad habit. The only bad outcome is when you plan around other people, and they change their minds. This will happen often and you will become very frustrated. Otherwise? Plan away.
