We are seriously hoping for a honeymoon baby. Next July FH will be 37 and I'll be rapidly approaching 35... so nine months later Could someone muffle the clock?... the ticking is making me deaf

Here here! Me too FH will be 39 and I will be 33. The sooner the better!

I don't want to even discuss it until we're 30. We both turn 26 this week so at least 4 years before we even talk about when.

Babies kind of freak me out

Same here--we'll probably wait 6 or 7 years.

we are not planning, we have decided not to use birth control after the wedding, so I guess whenever it happens

Two years. I will be 32 years old. I plan on having the second and final child when I am 35.

I don't know...It's wierd but I am deathly afraid of child birth. I really can't put a number of years on it. But I am 23 and have some time to get over my fear. Maybe 5 or 6 years. But hey you never know what might happen.

Re: How long AFTER you are MARRIED do you PLAN on having CHILDREN

well, since i have my 4 year old daughter from a previous relationship and i'm currently working on my master's, i told my FH that i want to wait until i graduate in 2006 at least, and then whichever comes first...house or baby is fine with me. since i own my co-op we're not in a huge rush for the house...

plus my FH would have been completely fine with just my daughter, since he plans to adopt her, but i want to try for the boy!!!

LOL I am like you and I am older, believe me I am terrified of pain, but hell women have done this for all these years, I am sure we can do it

Re: How long AFTER you are MARRIED do you PLAN on having CHILDREN

Probably a year after we are married we will try simply because if I can withstand the pain (or bury the memory ) of the first than I would like a second by the time I am 35.

Re: How long AFTER you are MARRIED do you PLAN on having CHILDREN

Between 2-5 years. The longer the wait the better I feel. I want to have them when I am 29 so 5 yrs.

Re: How long AFTER you are MARRIED do you PLAN on having CHILDREN

I'd like to have one before I'm 30 and will be 27 1/2 at the wedding so a maybe 18th mths to two years.

Re: How long AFTER you are MARRIED do you PLAN on having CHILDREN

Probably 3-5 years after we get married. FH will have school to finish, and like many of you, I'd like to buy a house before we have our child (or children).

Re: How long AFTER you are MARRIED do you PLAN on having CHILDREN

probably like 4 or 5 years.. FH is 25 and i'm only 21 so i'm still going to school and i'd definitely want to finish that out first. and then of course we want to be able to enjoy married life for a while. not to mention the fact that we love to travel so a baby just isn't good for right now

Re: How long AFTER you are MARRIED do you PLAN on having CHILDREN

We originally we're thinking we would start to try about 6 months after the wedding, but I'm starting to learn from my friends it doesn't always happen when you want it too. So now we're thinking I'll go off of birth control right after the wedding.
