Our original plan was to wait a year, go see Europe and get around to a few other countries while enjoying newlyweded bliss....well God obviously had another plan so here we are expecting our first child in December!!! We are so excited and can't wait to meet our little one. Oh and as far as the travel plans, they aren't being cancelled. We will still be getting to Europe, just bringing bambino along or leaving him/her with the grandparents! Our life will definitely keep moving even with the little one :-)

We both want babies!  But we're waiting to try for about 2 years from now.  I have about 11 months of school still for my doctorate, and I should probably pay back some of those loans before we start trying!  Bummed, but we are trying to be realistic about money and savings before getting in over our heads.

If it comes along sooner, we'd be overjoyed and would figure it out =]

I used to be very much in a rush. I love kids, and would love to have a family. Although I still desperately want kids, I want to enjoy being just us. DH wants to do some things (example: trip to Vegas) before we have kids, plus we'd like to own our own home and have some money in savings before we start trying. We're still young (both 22), so we're thinking within the next 2-5 years we'll start trying. I'm okay with that, just as long as I'm a mom before I'm 30. =)

I'm 35 and finally found the man that I want to spend the rest of my life with and have a family with.  We talked about this a lot and finally decided to go TTC in June of this year.  I'm still waiting on my body to adjust (from BC), but we'd both love to have either a little boy or little girl by this time next year!

We've had so many people tell us to wait for a bit that we are jumping the gun, but honestly we've put A LOT of thought into this.  Our relationship hasn't exactly been typical, so while we've dated, we've been to 6-7 countries!  We've lived together for over a year in 2 different countries, and let's add into the mix the pure and simple fact that I'm over 35.

Well originally we were going to wait until our 1 year anniversary in August 2011, ended up pregnant on our honeymoon. We were soooo excited but miscarried and I had to have a d&c on Tuesday. It's very hard emotionally for me :( But things happen for a reason, I'm now going to wait after my graduation in May. I will probably not prevent, not actively ttc in June. I'm ready to start my family!!

We got married BECAUSE we wanted to start trying. We'd been together for 7 years prior and were perfectly fine with our situation but both felt that we should be married before having a baby. I had "baby fever" about 2 years into our relationship, but he wasn't ready. Then HE got the fever about a year before marriage and I wasn't so gung ho anymore. I've always wanted a child but as I got older I focused more on the sacrifices/responsibilities/etc than the "joys" of motherhood and it kind of deterred me. Plus I wanted to be "done" having kids by 30 (maybe 2 or 3) and I'll give birth to our first 8 months shy of 30. And now I only want ONE but he still wants more and I just don't know.
BTW: I had been on the pill our entire relationship and went off a couple months before the wedding. We actually conceived right away but lost it, then a few weeks after that conceived again. We were lucky.
