Oh puh-lease. If you make sure to have enough money and have plenty of friends and family to help you out when you get worn down it'll be fine. Most new parents fail to plan ahead or have an accidental pregnancy and from that perspective I could see things being overwhelming as they adjust to spending most of their time parenting instead of pursuing other things. If you have a friend with a 1 year old and you have a newborn you can get in on those sweet sweet hand me downs and save tons of money. We have SO many modern conveniences now compared to even 50 years ago! Disposable diapers, wireless audio and video baby monitors, super safe cribs and toys. Compared to humans of the past we are sitting pretty when it comes to rearin' some kiddos.
