How much do babies cost?

Answer 1

Babies dont cost anything its the diapers and formula and wipes and clothes and bottles,and a crib and everything else the baby needs.

Answer 2

Making the baby is nothing, it's just the cost of feeding and clothing them that cost quite alot of money. From the day they are born until they get their own job, but sometimes are that too.

Answer 3

It varies from family to family, but for an idea, the gov estimates that in the USA, the average family spends a quarter million dollars to raise a child from birth to age 18. About ten thousand is spent in the first year - the biggest expense in the first year is the medical cost of delvery. If you have good insurance or free pregnancy benefits, that can help a lot.

Answer 4

To have? with out insurance about 25,000.00 unless you have C-section the its like 40,000.00. Or to raise first year alone with food diapers clothes without any help from the state I say about 10 to 13 thousand a year. There is a program called WIC short for Woman Infants & Children that will give you check to buy Formula, milk, cheese, cereal, beans, peanut butter, and juice until the kid is 5 years old but you have to go like ever 3 months. You can get it when you are pregnant also. The older the child get the more expencive it gets, you got to think about day care and stuff like that. I'm a single mom of a 5 year old, and I'm doing it alone (that never graduated from high school or went to collage). I have used the resources in my state to help me here and there but its been pretty easy. I hope I answer your question good luck.

Answer 5

Making a baby is free its health care and their needs that costs money and it can add up but aside from having less of the extras your used to giving yourself with you never notice it,and you always find a way to get what they need and its very worth everything you do.

Answer 6

I have three boys ages from 4 yrs old to 5 months. They can be expensive at time, but sometimes they are not. After you think about getting crib, diapers, clothes, bottles, formula or breastpump, wipes, baby wash, loition, shampoo, shoes, car seats, strollers, high chairs, walkers, school supplies, baby food, and other things you might need or want. It's well worth it for your kids.

It's hard to put a price on how much it costs to have a child each year. depends on if you are using formula or breast milk, are you using disposable diapers or cloth diapers. Are you buying everythign new or using hand me downs....it's all a part of it.
