Grandma and Grandpa who are 72 and 73 (young, in my oinion): 'Danielle, how soon after the wedding are you going to have a baby?'
Danielle: 'I don't know, definitely not in the first two years... we want to buy a house and be settled first.'
G&G (in a disappointed tone): 'Well, just so you know, we'd like to see great-granchildren before we die, so maybe you shouldn't wit that long.'
guilt much?

I get the sameeeeeeee thing from my grandparents..granted my grandmothers are well into their 80s (but look and feel very young, and healthy) I always get ' Dana, you made your wedding so far away and you think i'm going to hold off another year or 2 AFTER that for you to have kids..I'm going to be dead by then'
k great!!! grrrr

Re: BABIES-VENT
i get it, too. FMIL bought those family member stickers you put on the car window. she has her, her husband, her three sons (including FH), and me, which is really sweet. then she tells me, don't worry, i saved the baby one to put up too........................................

Re: BABIES-VENT
Whenever FFIL is hold one of his nieces/nephews babies he feels the need to tell me 'hurry up and have a baby'
He also warned me that he will be over a lot once i do finally have a baby..... I am going to have to be like Ray Romano's wife in 'everyone loves raymond' and close the lights and make believe no one is home
I am jking.... i love my Inlaws..... but the baby market is closed and will not open for at least 1 year after the wedding!!

Re: BABIES-VENT
There was a report that I watched with FMIL about how dairy helps you get pregnant faster---she keeps telling me to eat all dairy My other FMIL (step) always guilts us about how we should visit them now, cause if we have kids right away, then we won't go and visit them up where they are My mother will not let me move out of the town we are in now, cause she wants us to be close when we have kids---ummm hello, you guys have a few years for this ohhhhh--and they all want to move in with me for a least a week at a time when we have kids---if that is the offer--I am not having them anytime soon

I totally didn't understand what you said the first time I read this, I'm not sure wat the heck I was thinking. I thought you were p issed that she said 'our' baby lol ...
But we defiantly get the guilt talks from our entire family. My grandma likes to tell me that I better get a move on since I will be the last hope for her to see a great grandchild... does she still understand that I'm still only 20?

Re: BABIES-VENT
the best ones were always made BEFORE we got engaged...I remember several people telling me they didn't care if i got married, to just have some kids.
The 'Guilt-Tripping Grandparent' is always my favorite tho.....what are you supposed to say to something so final as 'have a kid before I die'.

Re: BABIES-VENT
oh please dont get me started
FH told FIL that we have no plans anytime in the near or far future to have kids and his dad said that we shouldnt even get married then bc it was pointless
geez i thought we were getting married bc we were in love and wanted to be together for the rest of our lives not to procreate like cattle. . . guess i was wrong.

Re: BABIES-VENT
i went on an interview last may and needed a new suit. i wasa complaining to my mom about how much $ i have to spend on a suit that i wear once. so she says 'well you can wear it to the baby's christening' and im like 'what baby?' and she said yours. i said the suit will probably be out of style by the time i have a baby. AHHHHHH!!

Re: BABIES-VENT
nobody has made any baby comments yet....i get the opposite.....
i called my sister last weekend to tell her that i think i found my wedding dress - so i tell her to tell my mom that she has to call me and not to tell my mom b/c i want it to be a surprise.....so my sister is 16 and blows it out of proportion and tells my mom that i have this big secret.....so my mom tries to get my sister to tell - but she wont.....so my mom calls me and says 'you better not be having a baby - i'll kill you' in like a joking laughing voice.....so i said Nooooooooo and then her other guesses were that i was visiting her OR that i found a wedding dress
she knows that we really want to wait until we are older and that a kid would totally F up our plans but she is too much! she hopes that i dont get pregnant just as much as i do!

Re: BABIES-VENT
My comments come from FH.
He keeps telling me he wants 4 in 4 years!!!!!! I told him that I will become a baby machine when he hits the lotto and I know we don't ever have to worry about money! He also thinks I should be pregnant before the wedding -- I told him I control the pill I take and I will enjoy our HM but whatever happens after that is in God's hands!

Re: BABIES-VENT
it's funny because my mom knows we don't want to have kids right away. we want to make sure we are financially stable before we start trying. and just recently my mom has started commenting about me having a baby. i told her she has to prob wait about 3 yrs or so after we get married. especially since i want to try to get tenured before i can have a baby. sooo recently she gets all upset and says 'well all my kids are going to be out of the house i need someoneto keep me young' and that 'she needs grandchildren soon to spoil since we are all getting older and snotty'
but fil's are definitely not suggesting we make any babies anytime soon. they would prob be more upset than i would be if i found out i was pregnant before my wedding haha. they think fh;s older brother is too young to start trying and he is 31. YEAH FH's PARENTS are CRAZY!!!!!!!!!

FMIL keeps saying she wants to be a young grandmother. I keep telling her even when she's 60 that's still young!
