I don't necessarily have the itch yet...we're not financially there yet. I'll be 24 when we get married....I want to start trying when we're like 27 or so. I want one earlier but I'll be trying to start a business and getting to the place where I can not have to work so much.

wow, you girls must be really young. I have to wait a couple of years after marriage because we won't be ready financially and what sux is that I'm not gettting any younger.



i dont get it? how would that make everyone young do you mean old that would make more sense with your statement.

i would like to wait about 2 years, ill be 28 when i get married and fh will be 29 so when were 30 and 31 i think thats a good age to start




Im confused also! I will be almost 27 when i get married and then i plan on waiting two years....... i'll be 29!!!!!!!!!!!

i guess i'm the only one who doesn't

I'm going to be starting my first job as a lawyer immediately after the wedding, so it's going to be a few years at least before babies come

You're not the only one. Im far from itchy!

I defintely get bump envious and really wish that we can start now...but we are waiting until after we've been married for a year.....I know that nothing can ever feel like that first year of marriage again, so I want to enjoy every second of it. Babies will come....I want my hubby first!

well, i'm definitely no spring chicken and neither is FH so we dont have too much time to 'waste' and we've already been living together for 2 years

I'm set in my career so no real reason for us to wait - besides, its fun to practice!!



Me too. FH wants children right away

i totally have been thinking about this way more lately...

Re: Baby itch??

aw, i know how you feel. Everytime we are out and see kids FH tells me he wants one, lol. But we know we are really not ready yet, ideally we would like to have a house before kids, but somehow i dont see it that happening in that order. If it wasnt for financial reasons then it would be different, lol.

Re: Baby itch??

not itchy now... like denise said.. i too go through waves of itchyness

KK Holiday Posted:

Re: Baby itch??

ME TOO!!!!!

the more I see babies the more I want one!!!!!!!!!




FH says 'One step at a time!'



it's weird because all through high school and college i was set on NOT having kids. in fact when FH and i started dating we agreed on no children.

Now its like I'm getting married and I want a family.
I guess your body just knows when its time

but its scary as hell

i dont really either - once in awhile i think about it and i cant wait but its more out of curiousity of wondering what it would be like to have a family - its more like a fantasy or a daydream - but i dont really want kids yet - i see the effect that they have on people and i am still to selfish - there are so many things that I want to enjoy with FH and my friends before MY life is over because when you have kids you live for them, not yourself - well at least thats what i believe if you are a good parent....and im not ready for that anytime soon.....i def want to be have a nice home and be financially stable on 1 salary and have lived out as many of our dreams as possible....then we can get to babymaking!!

Same here.

Career first. Then financial stability. Then baby.

That order for me.



I completely agree with you. I wouldn't even think of having a child until I'm financially and mentally ready for one. I have been teaching 6 years and FH has been at his job for 9.5 years. So we' are both financially ready. Next step is buying the house (hopefully within this year) and enjoying the marriage for a little....THEN I want 4 or 5!!!

I say that now... But let's see what I say after having 1..

I agree with you. I'll be 28 when we get married and FH will be 31. I would like to have my first child by the time I'm 30. But that's only because I want like 4 and don't want them all too close together! lol

Re: Baby itch??

no but probably because i have one already & know how hard it is even with the help...i had my parents help and FH's help 24/7, and still wanted to pull all my hair out the first few months...oh and i dont want to go through 17 1/2 hours of labor again lol
