we plan on trying after we've been married for 2-3 years. i LOVE kids and will probably really want to start trying right away, but i think it's important to enjoy just being US for a little while first.
Thats how i feel too. I see cute baby clothes and whenever i see a baby im like OOOH i want one now!! but realistically i think its good to enjoy us time first

Re: KIDS
we're thinking about 2-3 years married before kids. We want to be able to enjoy married life, and each other first

We'll probably wait 4-5 years. We've never lived on our own and want to enjoy our freedom for a good minute before we start having kids.

Re: KIDS
I figure I will start thinking about kids when I am 30 -- I am 26 now and will be 27 when I get married. My friends all have baby fever though - one has a 10 month old and the others will be trying before the end of the year!

Us too! We both still live at home with our parents but after I graduate this year we will start looking for a place. Whether we rent or buy. I figure a cat or dog will do the trick until we are ready for real babies!

Re: KIDS
yuck i hate those types of questions - especially since you dont want to offend anyone with your answer when they ask!
i originally wanted to wait a year ( to the day HA!) but now we are saying anywhere from 2 to 4 years. . . or whenever God decides
we will be together ten years ( and 25) when we get married but we want to enjoy living together, buying a house and traveling.
we already planned our first two anniversary trips so i dont think we are selfless enough for kids yet but we have plenty of babies in our lives!

Re: KIDS
well, i want to have kids before i'm 30....i will be 26 almost 27 when we get married, so maybe we will wait a year...i dont want to wait too long but i know after the wedding we will have to start saving $ again, since so much of our $ is going towards the wedding.
just personally, i dont want to wait too long b/c i feel like now is when i have a lot of energy and am young, so i want to be able to feel like i can run around like crazy and do whatever i need to for my kids without feeling too tired and exhausted...we will see though. we have already been together over 6 years.

Re: KIDS
Considering the fact that I'll be 32 and FH 39 at my wedding, We'll probably start trying that July or August.

Re: KIDS
not until I have tenure, he has a good job, and we both become a little more selfless.
Right now we enjoy spur of the moment trips and spending quality time with just the two of us.
I don't think it would be fair for the child if we had one right after we got married. I want to make sure I can 100% dedicate myself to making that childs life my #1 priority.
Right now my priority is my FH.

Re: KIDS
Well people are placing bets that I'm going to have a HM baby, which I don't want. I don't mind being pregnant for our 1 year anniversary. I'm 23 and FH is 27.

Re: KIDS
The only person who asked me that question is my little sister, she wants to be an aunt.
I will 23 when I get married, I guess people feel I will still be young when I get married so they don't bother to ask. They just tell me not to have kids right away lol. FH and I want to wait for at least two years after we get married to start trying.
