Honeymoon babies

My fh and I were talking yesterday and he was telling me he doesn't object to having a baby right away. Granted I really want to have a baby to and want to be a parent by 30. I am 27 now fh is 26. I am just not sure if I want to have a baby right away what do you girls think?
Thanks for all of your support. I cant wait to have . Just not twins lol

Re: Honeymoon babies

BOTH of you need to be on the same page. Don't have a child if you are not ready (or can help it!). Talk to FH about your reservations. Who knows? Maybe you will feel differently in a few months.

Re: Honeymoon babies

we didn't try for one, but if it happened, neither one of us would have been heartbroken by any means. we both want to have a baby... we're just trying to get a bit more financially prepared before it happens, and spend some time just being 'us'

Re: Honeymoon babies

We plan on waiting. I want to have time to adjust to being married and living with FH. Also, I want to be more financially stable. But once we are married, if it happens, it happens. I will continue to take BCP though.

Re: Honeymoon babies

When we get married, I will be 25 and FH will be 24. We want to wait 2-3 years to have a baby so we have time to enjoy living together alone and save for a house. Then we will start to try. But if it happens, it happens.

Re: Honeymoon babies

The night we got engaged I asked if I could stop taking BCP! I would love to get pregnant on our honeymoon. We are also at a good place right now though. I will be 29 and FH will be 36 (wow!) when we get married and we already live in a house together. We are so ready, bring it on!

Re: Honeymoon babies

I really think it depends on your life. I want around two years of being together as a couple living together and working on our married and getting a house and hopefully a good income. Fh is 34 now and i am 27 so we are waiting. I am not on birth control and haven't since FH and I got together and I have never gotten prego so it may be a problem for us anyway. So i answered if it happens it happens but honestly i rather wait a bit.

what she said. if you're unsure, then take time to talk to him and think about it. because other people are having honeymoon babies, doesn't mean it's the right time for you.

you're young and no need to rush. HAVE FUN PRACTICING!!!!!

Re: Honeymoon babies

I would have been upset had i gotten PG on my H!! I want to enjoy traveling and going out etc w/ my DH w.o having a baby to worry about. Everyone says 'life is not the same' after you have a baby, and i believe them and i dont want that kind of life change right now.

Im 32 and i still dont know when i want kids....im sure when im ready i wil know

Re: Honeymoon babies

I cannot wait to have a baby!! FH is older then me so we decided we were gonna start trying right away just in case we have any problems (god forbid) I keep seeing babies, or I walk into Target and see alllllll the adorable baby stuff and now our friends are 5 months preggo. I was hoping we'd get preggo by accident for xmas I say go for it!!

Re: Honeymoon babies

Fh and I have been living together for over 4 years. One of the reasons we are getting married is to have kids. When we first got together we had a problem because he said no babies without marriage and I was anti marriage. But I came around. Now that we are ready for the babies we will do the marriage thing. So come on honeymoon baby.

Re: Honeymoon babies

I will be 25 and FH will be 31....FH and I have been living together for over 3 years and we love it. I couldnt imagine not living with him. I have NOT been on BCP for two years and we did get pregnant a year ago. We werent engaged at the time, but we were so excited and told our parents and they were so happy and we even went to babys r us like 8 weeks in just to look at all the stuff. At 9 weeks I MC We were all so upset...but to make a long story short...we cannot wait to get pregnant again...it was such an exciting time. I would love to have a HM baby!!! But we did feel the stress of NOT having a house ...which means we werent 100% ready. SO in the back of my mind..while I was pregnant I was like OMG we have 8 months to FIND A HOUSE THis time around I would love to just sit back and focus on me and the baby and not have to worry about an ounce of anything! I hope this helps.

Re: Honeymoon babies

well, i think i would be upset

i am looking forward to having babies but i am also looking forward to living with FH and enjoying newlywed life and traveling etc

but stuff happens sometimes so hopefully i dont jinx myself, lol

Re: Honeymoon babies

I wanted to get pregnant soon after the wedding, but DH wants to wait to be married for a year before we have a baby. I am in the same boat as you, I want to have a baby or be pregnant by 30 and I'm 28 now. If it happened though it happened...we wouldn't be upset.

I agree tilde...

the 2 of us pretty much agreed that we really would prefer to wait until we're around 30. He'll be 26 and I'll be 27 when we take the plunge. We've been together for 7 years now and by then we'll be together for 8 1/2 but we still want to travel and do stuff as a married couple before we have kids. Our children are going to be CRAZY so we need some time to prepare LOL

Re: Honeymoon babies

Was not interested...I think I'm still on the young side (was 26 at my wedding) and I still have a few things to do personally and professionally before I'm ready...DH's only opinion is that he REALLY wants kids by the time he's 30 so we've got 3 years and I think realistically we'll start trying in 2 so everyone is happy

I completely agree!
