Puleeze. Do you own a house? do you own a car? do you go on vacation regularly? If you say "yes" to at least 2 of the above, please stop whinging. there are so many people who are worse off than you.
You should have known what you started with children, and who says your standard of living has to remain the same after starting a family?
I live in a country where maternity pay is up to EUR7500 per month. Even then the ladies still call to ask if they also get the car paid, since their employer used to do so. It is never really enough.
Think before acting. If your situation is really so dire, you either:
- should have thought of the consequences beforehand
- save some money
- get a partner with a better paying job
- lower your standard of living.

You'll of course came with numerous excuses, but honestly, get real.
