Re: NWR-How Long are you and DH going to wait....
FH wants to start trying right away. (He's gone baby crazy)He is 30 now, 31 by the wedding. I will be 6 months away from 30 by the wedding. I would like to wait at least a year, but since we want 2 or three children, we may need to start sooner than later.

Re: NWR-How Long are you and DH going to wait....
I'm 36 (37 in Feb), DH will be 38 in Dec. We will probably start trying in the next few months.
He wants FOUR BOYS!! I've already told him he is insane.
All of his siblings have three - two girls & a boy. I would def like one of each ... but in any case at least two.

Re: NWR-How Long are you and DH going to wait....
We want or will try for a HM baby...looks like Im the only one...lol
We want them NOW but obviously since the wedding is planned are being careful for the time being...
I'll be 2 months shy of 30 when we get married so I think the timing is good...

Re: NWR-How Long are you and DH going to wait....
We will probably wait to start trying for a year after the wedding. I want to be able to take a couple trips w/o worrying about kids!! I will be turning 32 a couple months after the wedding. I don't want to be an old mom, so hopefully I will have the first of 2 before I am 35.
I wouldnt mind having more than 2 kids, but I want to be able to aford them, and give them everything my parents were able to give to me while I was growing up.

Re: NWR-How Long are you and DH going to wait....
FH wants 6...
So if he really want to get anywhere close to that # we should start immediately after the wedding!
Realistically I want 2-3 but still dont want to wait too long after we are married.

Re: NWR-How Long are you and DH going to wait....
Right now we are not sure if we want kids. We were married in 2003 and we said we would visit the issue in about 3 years.
I think eventually I would want 1 or 2, but we will see. There's no rush for us.

What......no one wants a honeymoon baby? (hee, hee)
We do FH is 33 and I am 24, we want 3, the Dr. told me if I want them I need to start right away, I have endometrios (sp) and she suggested I don't wait for the first one. If I have no problems with the first we will wait 2 1/2 or 3 years before the second.

We have been together for 8 years and did a bunch of traveling - so we're ready. ( As ready as you can be )

Re: NWR-How Long are you and DH going to wait....
We are going to wait 2 years. We will be living at my parents and I'll have my first while we are still there so we can save save save for a house. Then I get prego with the second and we buy a house and I am able to stay home with kids. We don't want them in daycare.

Re: NWR-How Long are you and DH going to wait....
I am 25. I told him he can't touch me until I am 29 or 30. If it were up to him, he would want to start at the honeymoon.
We are definitly spacing them out. I am one of 6 all born close together, and the competition is intense. I think each child deserves a couple of years to be the 'baby' and get the attention before you bring another one in for everyone to 'ooh' and 'ahh' at.
We want two or three.

Re: NWR-How Long are you and DH going to wait....
I want 2 kids. The first one I want to be a girl, and I want to have her when I am 32--6 years after I am married. I will have finished my doctorate when I am 29, and then I want to move into a larger house from our condo.
At 35 I want to have a boy.
God willing of course
It's so funny, I always had a timeline of my life I wanted, and I have been following it. My friends made fun of me, but I wanted married at 26, and here I am

I am so petrified of having children that I really have no clue. FH and I have of course discussed it and we are pretty much in the same boat. We would consider not having children at all, or having at least one and then take it from there. We will wait at LEAST 2-3 years if not more... I am still in my mid-twenties so I'm hoping that as I get older I will develop a maternal instinct since I don't really seem to have one now!
We feel the same way but we are thinking more like 4-5 years. I'm more interested in getting a dog right now.
