Children soon or wait?

Children soon or wait?

What's everyone's opinion on this?

Re: Children soon or wait?

This is a tough one! I feel like I want to start right away and FH wants to wait one year. One year would make more sense since it would give us time to settle in and I will be tenured then, but I'm nervous about it taking awhile to actually get pregnant!

Im waiting! some people have baby fever... I currently have puppy fever

I figure we'll start trying about 2 years after the wedding.

I want one like yesterday...FH wants to wait a bit. We have been living together for about three years so I feel like once we get married nothing is going to change except another ring on my finger. I feel like we had our 'alone' time already.

We're planning to wait a year after we're married to start trying.

FH and I will be together for 10 years when we get married, and we already have a puppy, lol!

We would like to start right away, but it will depend on our living situation after the wedding. We want to make sure we have room for the new addition :)so hopefully we can put an offer down on a house shortly after the wedding.

It is completely opposite for me. FH wants one right away! But I want to wait a year since we have not yet lived together. I want a year to settle in, and then start trying

we want a baby really bad so we are gonna start trying in the hotel after the ceremony lol sorry if that was TMI!

The thing is - I dont think it is going to be easy for me to get prego :( I have PCOS and irregular cycle which are the two leading causes of infertility

since we will already be in our 30's and i have a feeling it might not be as easy for me, we are gonna wait a year and then start

By the time our wedding comes around, I'll only be 25, so I want to wait awhile....give us time to buy a house and settle in. Not sure the FH really wants to wait though...

Aww I hope you two the best when you start trying. My MOH has both PCOS and irregular cycle and she just had her first child naturally after two miscarriages from insemination. That should give you hope.

I currently have baby fever. I want four kids so I want to start right away after the wedding. Besides I want my kids to grow up with my two MOHs children since they both are giving birth this year. FH and I have lived together 3 and a half years already so marriage is not going to change anything. The big deciding factor for most people I think is how long they have lived with FH.

I would love to have one asap, but logically we think it's best for us to wait at least a year. We want some alone time since we never lived together and we want to somewhat get our finances in order before our bundle(s) of joy arrive!

FH wants children right away (we'll be 28 turning 29 when we get married). I personally want to wait and enjoy being married/traveling, etc. before having children.

Re: Children soon or wait?

we are waiting between 3-5 years. We will both be turning 26 shortly after the wedding and we want time to ourselves first. Especially since we are not living together until we are married.
