    setting up a blog is a great idea but if you are having a baby real soon you have to think of something which can give you a more stable income for the next few months. why dont u blog and work part time for a call center or transcription. good luck!

    Thanks for the support guys, hope i'll get there. Getting a job here in my country sucks, staying online and building ad embedded sites pays more. :)

    So when my first son was born I was in a pretty similar situation, we were living together and unmarried, and I also came from a very fractured family background. We had nothing, although unlike you I was working, but making hardly anything at all doing so. We lived off of credit cards and charity for the most part and it was hard. I'm still paying off those credit card to this day. My advice, do not use credit cards. Your kid does not need to have top name brand things, as he really doesn't care. Shopping at thrift stores and second hand shops is a great way to save money. Good luck it isn't easy.

    The only thing I was able to bought for my son using my own money is his milk bottle and a pair of gloves. I don't have the money to buy all those baby needs, I just borrowed most of the stuffs from my cousins who have baby clothes that aren't used anymore. The money that I was saving goes to his milk, vitamins, and scheduled checkups. Yeah man it's really hard, I'm an undergraduate 22 year old student who's living independently together with my wife and kid, what more could I expect. Thank God there's some extra money on the internet. :)
