What you can do right now is to try to live with your partner’s income. Even though your working just put that aside and see if can make it, paying bills and buying things for your baby. Pretend you're not working and your money instead of spending it save it. Now also you need to cut on things like stopping by Starbucks to get a cup of coffee, McDonalds, and so forth. Make yourself homemade food for you and your husband. Even though you are going to save on other things like child care, which is really expensive, gas for two cars (if you guys drive separately to work). It's a good start to see if one income is enough. My husband and I tried this and we found out that it's not going to work for us, so after birth I’m going back to work.
Good luck with your pregnancy.
