Re: When are you and DH thinking of starting a family?

DH still has a year and a half of school (graduates in may 2007). Then we want to both be working for 2 years to save money, pay off some loans, etc.

I'm guessing in about 4 years we'll start trying (when i'm 27 and he's 28).

Re: When are you and DH thinking of starting a family?

Well, we are both 31 but I want to at least finish my doctoral coursework. DH is also wanting to go back to school next year for MBA/MSF program SOOO earliest we would be starting is after my comps, Spring 2007. It's hard, many of our friends are on beginning to think about baby #2 but it's not quite right for us yet!

Re: When are you and DH thinking of starting a family?

We're trying now. DH is 40 and I'm 32 so we really don't want to wait. Hopefully by this time next year we'll have a little blessing.

Re: When are you and DH thinking of starting a family?

We plan on starting a family within 1-2 years. We are concentrating on getting a house first and then starting a family. Once we get a house we will start trying for a family.

Re: When are you and DH thinking of starting a family?

Technically we have been actively trying since March (three months before the wedding). I don't exactly work like clockwork... at all. Considering I'm 35 and DH is 37 we are now undergoing infertility treatments

It is difficult when I hear about much younger girls who have actually been married less time than me 'accidentally' get pregnant and I am undergoing tests like a medical guinea pig.

People should NEVER ask because no one knows if the couple never plans on having any or is desperately trying to just have one.

Re: When are you and DH thinking of starting a family?

We are waiting a few years also. I don't feel ready yet to be a Mom. Brian feels the same. He is happy to wait a few years and just enjoy our alone time.

Re: When are you and DH thinking of starting a family?

we're thinking about starting to try around october-ish... but we'll see what happens when we get to October (it may get pushed back just a little bit)

i would start trying right now if i wasn't working FT and going to school PT, but DH is more into the 'waiting a while' theory. But, we both agree that if an accident Did happen- we'd still be sooo excited
