Holy Moly cheap daycare!

I keep forgetting I live in Laredo...land of cheapness.

DH and I are going to start TTC next year.  I have a doctors appointment for yet another colposcopy and biopsy...if the results are less than perfect this time around we'll have to start TTC now.  I'm nervous as hell, I keep thinking we can't afford this yet, we aren't ready.

Well I called the best daycare in town as recommended by everyone....$110/week.  I nearly fell over.  I keep thinking Austin rates of $800-1000/month.  This place will just be around $500 a month.  Woohoo!  So not the end of the world if the doc says to try now.  Also, fraternal twins run rampent through my mother's family so just in case we're one of the percentage we're still ok.

Whew, just a big sigh of relief.  Now off to worry about stupid colpo and biopsy...blah.

    I'm sorry for the darn colpo and biopsy, and will keep you in my thoughts that everything is A-OK!!

    HECK YES to the wonderful daycare costs!! Woohoo!

    :::Pondering if it would be cheaper to ship my kid to Laredo during the week::: 

    Dear Bump: You suck.

    I must have missed something because I didn't know you'd had to have a colpo and biopsy. :(  Boo!  Fingers crossed that it turns out fine!

    Nah, I just keep trying to forget about it :(  This is the 3rd one...my body gets better, then it gets worse, then it starts to get better again.  It's just frustrating.  Hopefully this one will be good news.

    Yea for cheap day care!! That is GREAT! I had to have 4 colpo/biopsies a few years back, and it did finally get better. I'll keep my fingers crossed for you because I know how tough it is.?

    Ha, no, sorry.  I keep thinking we should move back to Austin and I should have an at home day care.  Then charge only $500/month per kid.  I'd have a wait list I think....

    Awesome!  As soon as DH gets transfered back to Austin I'm doing it.  I've always wanted to.
