Re: How long are you going to wait before you start trying for a baby???

I'd love to say maybe in 2-3 years. But as reality sets in, I'm in no rush...

Re: How long are you going to wait before you start trying for a baby???

I will probably start trying 3 years after we are married. We still need to save for a house and go on a few more vacations. FFIL wants me to wait 5 or more years, I tell him he's crazy. He wants us to have tons of money before we think of babys.

After Tenure!
Although that is true, I think it's important to be married for a year or two before having a baby.

Re: How long are you going to wait before you start trying for a baby???

2-3 years...want to enjoy married life first, maybe travel more.

Re: How long are you going to wait before you start trying for a baby???

about 5 years after getting married (when I hit 30) we are gonna start thinking about kids. I'm in NO rush at all and if we do have them it probably won't be till I'm in my early thirties (I'll be 25 when married)...

Re: How long are you going to wait before you start trying for a baby???

We're in no rush...but than again...we're not getting any younger!

Re: How long are you going to wait before you start trying for a baby???

I'd love to have a baby right away but money is going to be tight.... as soon as we can afford it (or at least ALMOST afford it!) I would love to get pregnant!!

Re: How long are you going to wait before you start trying for a baby???

I'm going off the pill at our one year anniversary (in October) and whatever happens, happens. Both of our parents will be in their glory when I finally get pregnant- they can't wait!

Re: How long are you going to wait before you start trying for a baby???

2-3 years - we arent young (27 & 31) but we want to travel first

Re: How long are you going to wait before you start trying for a baby???

Probably about a year. My FI is already 41 and reminds me that he's not getting any younger. He already has an 8 y/o daughter from a previous marriage and we don't want her to be too much older than her half-siblings. The only reason I'd wait the year is to become more financially stable.

Cindy my brother has a 12 and a 14 year old from his first marriage. He has a 2 year old from his second marriage. If you wait, you have a built in baby sitter - could save you some money.

Re: How long are you going to wait before you start trying for a baby???

We were gonna start right away but our plans got put on hold because of my job situation. So we are now going to wait atleast a year. I think it worked out for the best anyway because I think we need a year with just ourseleves to enjoy married life and travel

I guess you can say we aren't....we had a baby last august

well i guess u can say that again b/c FH and I already have our set family, as u can see.We have our son, and daughter, (2) on x-mas, and (4) next month
Mom says we're back wards but we're content, we travel alot (seven different countries aside form our natives Jamaica, and Trinidad) Unfortunately I'm back at work b/c of the wedding, both little ones r now in private school ,very costly.. Which is taking away from our buying of a home.(apts suck) but other than that its fun b/c were young(25/28)
Good luck to all those trying!

Re: How long are you going to wait before you start trying for a baby???

I think after I buy a house and financially ready for that

Re: How long are you going to wait before you start trying for a baby???

3-5 or never. I really don't know if we want kids yet, so we'll see if anything changes later on down the road. We know for RIGHT NOW, kids are just not something we want to do.

Re: How long are you going to wait before you start trying for a baby???

Def wanna get a house before that....and we are still young and new in our careers...prolly about 4-5 years.....
