So I was perusing the NW board and a topic there is what inspired me to ask this question!
Do you and FI plan to have kids? How many? How soon after you are married will you start trying for a baby?
Well FH already has a daughter (she'll be 7 when we get married)...so my original answer would have been that I wanted a couple of years with just FH and I before we tried for a baby...but that's out the window now.
I think we will wait until I am close to finished or completely finished with my masters before we start TTC (Trying To Conceive). It will be an adjustment to being a little family so we'll take a couple years to do that as well...and I'd like to be somewhat financially secure. Ideally I always thought I'd have all my babies between 28 and 32 and I feel like we're still on track for that.
I'd like to have at least 2 more kids...I definitely want a little boy to be my Mama's Boy!!

We want 3. I want one child before 30 so we plan on trying after about a year of marriage. And I want to have them relatively close in age. Hopefully we'll have twins so that will be one less pregnancy for me

We want 2 and we will probably try to have them soon after the wedding (I'll be 31 so I'm ready).

definitely want kids...FH wants to start having kids like 2 years..from NOW.... i say, 2 years after we are married...
i want 2..fh wants 4...maybe we can compromise with 3, or I'll just give him the big family he wants

We want kids...but neither of us are in any kind of rush to have them. Ill be 25 when we get married so we'll prob wait about 3 years before we start trying. We want 2 or 3 kids...but well see
Don't know yet - we will see where life takes us...

we want 2 or 3... we plan on starting to try about a year after the wedding. We love kids, but want to both be more settled in our careers. FH is starting a new job in June so by that point he will know if he's sticking around or trying to move on... I can't wait for kids!!

We definitely plan to have kids. I'll have just turned 25 a month before our wedding and he'll be 26 so i think we'll wait a solid 2 years before trying. Ideally, I would love 3 children but realistically we'll probably have 2.

I want to have 2 kids and so does FH. I am definitely waiting until I am about 30 (I am 25 now). Alot of people with kids have been scaring me lately about having kids!!!
