Re: Having Babies

we are definitely on the same page, do we want them- NO, but if for some reason I happen to get pregnant by accident then it happens (no i am not trying at ALL)

I just wish that everyone (his family) actually believed me when i tell them this

rita dont feel stupid. babies are a big deal and its scary...especially for guys. you said it took some talk to get the marriage thing going so do the wedding thing first..let him see how great it is, nothing to be afraid of or worried about and then take on the baby talk. guys can get overwhelmed quickly ya know and be turned off by ideas.

he'll come around i think, especially if you wait it out a bit



Yeah that is very true and i understand completely what you are saying

I just makes me upset that we are so far off from each other




whats far off? what kinda time frame are you two discussing?



I want to start a year after we are married he doesn't even want to think about them for another 5-6 years!

We're on the same page. We're going to wait probably a year or two before we start.

I told him I'd like to be done having children by the time I'm 33. Just my personal preference. That will give me 5 years after we get married to have 2 or 3 children. Probably 2.



He really only wants one - I am fine with that but would like the option of 2 and I want to be done by the time I am 30 - he doesn't even want to start until i am 30

Re: Having Babies

5-6 years is easier said then done....he'll come aorund after a year or two. does he have big life plans ahead that he wants to wait for? like i kow some teachers wanna be tenured or some people want to finish school?
if he doesnt, i cant see him holding out for 5-6 years, thats a long time.
you're gonna have a baby bump at the end of 2011

edited because i think it will be sooner lol

Re: Having Babies

FH and I are sort of on the same page, lol. We aren't off by much. He will be 29 when we get married next May and I will be turning 29, about 2 months after we are married. He would like to wait 2 years. And I would like to wait 1. Get Preggo while I am 30. So i explained to him if we get preggers while I am 30 he will be 31 when the baby is born

Re: Having Babies

We're not on the same page, but I'm not TOO worried about. Before me FH NEVER wanted kids and never thought he was going to get married.

I never thought I'd find 'the one' but I did want kids. I wanted 7 kids. I've scaled that down to maybe 4 or 5. I'll be in school getting my PhD until I'm 29 (6 years from now)--- I'd like to either have a baby the summer before my last year of school or the summer after. But we'll have to see. If not, I def want to have my first by 31.

FH just laughs right now when I say this. He's eased into wanting kids, but I think he is scared of the responsibility, and he also gets nervous around little kids because I don't think he knows what to do or how to act.

Re: Having Babies

Re: Having Babies

We def intly both want kids but we both agree that until we are in a better financial situation that we should wait...which is fine for me since labor scares me like crazy!!!

Re: Having Babies

We are def on the same page with kids. We talked alot about having children before we were engaged. I hope to start on the honeymoon since a month after I get married Ill be 29 and I always wanted my first baby by 30. We just cant agree on a number he wants 4 some days and some days he wants 2. Ill be happy with 2 or 3.

Re: Having Babies

We are on the same page, we want to wait until about 2 years after the wedding. I want to make sure I have a house and am financially ready to afford children. I want 3 but Fh wants 2, but I am happy with 2.

Re: Having Babies

we had this conversation i think 6 months after FH & I started dating. we both agreed on 2 kids (1 boy, 1 girl in the perfect world) & we will start trying within a year of getting married.
