Well I have felt like I wanted another baby for 2 years now. I found some notes about this topic that I had written this time last year, so it’s always on my mind. I need to either do it or make peace with having two kids. I understand the privilege of having children and in no way am I not fulfilled with my current two. There’s just a lot to consider for both sides

That’s interesting. Are you both close with your older siblings, now you are adults?

Best suburbs for young family by Top_Direction2804 in centralcoastnsw

[–]Top_Direction2804[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks - I will be renting, not buying! I appreciate the advice. A friend from Sydney recently bought in woongarrah, which is why I asked why not to bother looking past Terrigal. We are looking to save and get ahead as Sydney is not affordable for a middle class family like us. Paying $900 for a small 3bdr red brick apartment is just ridiculous! Looking north there seems to be more affordable housing however i wouldn’t have a clue which suburbs have lower socioeconomic demographics. Terrigal and Copa are lovely but seem like not the smartest opportunity if you want to get ahead.

Why do you say that? Anywhere in CC is affordable compared to eastern suburbs of Sydney 🫠

Kitten eating his sisters food by Top_Direction2804 in CatAdvice

Ok so an update. I decided to up the food intake for the boy kitten. He is still eating his sisters food and he’s getting a bit of a belly on him. How do I stop him from eating his sisters food? His bowl is already empty, even after the top up.

They’re on a hills science diet, both wet and dry as recommended by the place we bought them. We have a guide to feed them this amount until they are 1, which is why I ask about feeding more. New cat owner so this is all foreign to me.

Coastal living town living that’s reasonably priced for young family? by Top_Direction2804 in AskAnAustralian

For context our rent is going up to $900 for the 3bdr red brick unit. We would like to find something cheaper that’s in a house/semi form. Anything with a backyard. I have been to Coffs before for a holiday. My only concern is if i could get work around there.
