we waited 4 months.
at that point - we were together for more than 5 and a half years though & lived together for 5 of those years.

We have been living for almost 2 yrs together and married 50 days. So I am assuming you are still prego???? If I looked at your wedding date right??

maybe by end of next year we'll start trying -- so i guess 2-3 years from our wedding date would be when we start TTC

Not pregnant yet - still trying...
on average - i have been told (by a friend who went to a fertility clinic) that it takes a healthy couple 6-9 months to conceive. I'm FAR from healthy....
ETA: came off the pill in March. It takes time for your body to regulate once you've been on the pill for 10 years... In actuality, this is our 2nd month flat out, FULL FLEDGED trying....but we stopped being careful in March.

A few years at the very least. We've been married for almost a year but I want to work on my career before I become a mom. I would say we will start trying in about 3.5 years.

We are waiting a few years. I want to enjoy married life for a little while before we bring a child into this world. Also, I'd like to be a little more financially stable.

same here...i'd like to REALLY pursue my acting career, and also get a few nice vacations under our belt with just the two of us...and have our finances straight. we said about 4-5years from our wedding date....so in december that'll be about 2-3more years. I'd really like to wait out the full extra 3, but it'll probably happen more so within the 2year frame....lol. but we'll seeeeee

Probably another 2 years here, too. We just want to be married for a little while before having a baby. We may get a dog next year though.
