please DO NOT wait til bub's is born to write your will - seriously!! putting it off is a bad bad idea. bubs arrives, you're too busy. do it NOW while you're pregnant (and for anyone else reading, get it done NOW!!!)

we were in a situation a few years ago where DH's brother died very unexpectedly leaving no will - it has created a hell of a lot of tension and estrangement within his family and is something i hope no one will ever go through

a will can be written with all provisions - ours were written a few years ago (while dealing with solicitors for DH bro's estate, we arranged our wills) - in them, we had provisions for "any minor children" - that's all that is needed to cover arrangements for your children. they don't need to be updated annually unless you have a life changing event (change of address is one - but even that isn't a biggie) - it's usually things like change in marital status. even if you're unmarried, there is a way of wording the will so that change of marital status did not nullify the will (our solicitor did this as we weren't married at the time but were living defacto).

please, don't put it off - i used to have the "i'll do it when X happens" - but having lived through the hell of sorting out an estate for someone who died without a will, i suggest everyone has one - even a simple one!
