How long were you married...

before you had your first baby? Did you feel like you had enough married time?

I am asking because I find people are either hounding me about when I am going to have babies, or saying...enjoy at least x amount of years married before having kids.

-23 months... Emma was born before we were married. I can understand why people say enjoy being married but its your life. If you want to have a child and you guys are ready go ahead.

We were married in 97' had my first daughte rin 99', we've been together since out teens so i felt ready we did the partying scene and we were through, we were ready to settle down. I have to admit, every once in a while we see a young couple put and we think 'wow, those were relaxing days!!'. Definitely take your time, emjoy married life, learn about each other because each other's true personalities come out with the stressors of parenthood, I wouldn't change it for the world. My kids are the best!!!!!

We have been married 10 months and just found out we are having a baby. I think everyone needs to do what is best for them.

We were married 9 months, just about to the day, when I got PG. You do what you feel is right for you not them. I hate when people pass coments like that.

Thanks ladies! It is nice to see that you can make it work right after marriage or even before. I love our married time, but I just hate when people tell me to wait x amount of years. I think it is pushy!

Make yourselves happy-forget about anyone else. They'll never be happy anyway.

We got pregnant on our 1 year anniversary vacation. We have heard many different opinions from EVERYONE .......'You should have tried right away, or WOW, your pregnant already, but you guys just got married!'

Our son wasn't planned, however we were not trying not to get pregnant. I have to be honest we both wish we would have 1. married sooner (we were together for 4 years before we got married) 2. had a baby sooner. Do what is right for you, listen to your heart not everyone else's opinion.

Best of luck to you and your hubby!

DH & I will be married a year this September and are expecting our 1st child in December. Being that I will be 37 in November, we didn't want to wait too long before getting pregnant.
