Even Financial Planners Say They Missed These Hidden Costs Of Parenthood

Financial planners do know quite a bit about money, generally speaking.

But even they get surprised sometimes by unexpected costs.

And according to Business Insider, financial planners say first-time parenthood is a minefield for such unexpected financial demands.

To begin with, just giving birth is an expensive practice.

For a woman with insurance, the average birth costs $10,808 without any complications.

Once baby arrives, your food bill will go up.

A lot.
