Money burden / worries

Anyone else cover their child completely alone? Am I the only one to wake up with sudden worries on what would happen if I passed away? Like who would cover her? It’s been getting worse lately . Any way to ease this worry? Should I set up savings or insurance? I can’t sleep . It really keeps me up at night . I’ve been doing this nearly 2 years alone soon . We still don’t have our own home too & I feel guilt on that too 😭

feel the same way. Also, the thought of dying and my mum taking over my responsibilities over my child is a horrible thought, as my mum was and still is a bad mum, and I never want my child to go through what I went through with her, I have no one neither my child, I'm constantly worried about stuff, finances, etc, mostly to be able to be a good mum and to give her everything she needs and deserves, these thoughts and worries keep me up all night, I have such a bad sleep routine, if even I have one, it's just so hard I completely understand you and feel you xx

@Sílvia Silva I have family . But they’re not me & that worries me . Because what if they don’t know to do all these things? I don’t feel 100% giving her to her dad either . It’s such a worrying feeling, I cover her . I do everything always . But they’re all not me x

it's understandable. My baby's dad doesn't want her nor to have anything to do with her, and this worries me as well, because in case of death, I know courts will always go after the father, and definitely no other person is us, the mother of the child, as we know and deal with everything about them xx

@Sílvia Silva this is it . It’s exhausting to have these worries too . I’d love to be able to feel that she’s gonna be okay . I am starting up life insurance just incase . Atleast it’s one less worry I suppose xx

Decide who you want to take care of her should the worst happen, make a will and have those conversations. Definitely set up life insurance.

@Lydia definitely taking up life insurance . & thinking on a will . I had my sisters dad pass away & since then my anxiety has tripled about leaving my daughter with nothing etc . I want her to be in the best position x
