FI and I are getting married in 80 days (yay!) and though I am so excited about really cherishing every moment of our wedding and honeymoon-lately all I can think about it having a baby. We had discussed waiting a while (at least 2 years) to TTC. Buy a house, save some more money and enjoy each other alone for a while. And inside I know this is the right thing to do, but I just can't help this baby fever! Anyone else???
There's only 1 way 2 say those 3 words and that's what I'll do... I love you

Plus every time we're out and I hear kids screaming, it's like nails on a chalkboard. I know that sounds terrible, and I want kids I really do, but I just don't know if I'm ready. With me going off the pill in a few months, I'm just going to leave it up to God and His perfect timing for me and DH. DH wants to start trying now, but understands my feelings and thinks financially it'll be better to wait a few more months since we just settled into the house and we should have a few months before going on to the next big life event.
However, whenever I walk into the bedroom next to ours which we've designated as the nursery, I get warm fuzzy feelings thinking of how it'll be when it's actually a nursery. *sigh* I'm so torn..

The plan right now is for FI and I to start TTC on our 5th anniversary. We want kids, but not anytime soon - assuming that I can even have them.

I keep asking DH if he's SURE they won't perform a vasectomy until he's 30. Only 3 years, 3 months, and a few days to go!

[QUOTE]I was avoiding this post but decided to finally read it. I'm bearing soul here. I want children and DH does not. When we talked about it before getting married, he was open to the idea. Now he just says he isn't ready. I am 40 and am at the point where I have realized that I can't wait. And I don't want to have a child who isn't wanted by both mom and dad. Mother's Day has been very difficult for me for the past two years. I try to convince myself that there are many benefits to not having children but it's still hard. Please pray for me. I need peace about this. I believe that God would change DH's heart if it was His will for us to have children. He hasn't so I need to be okay with that.

<div>Sorry to hear, Lisa. That must be hard. I hope that whatever happens, you both find happiness, whatever the decision may be. If it's any consolation, my mom was a late mom... had my sister in her 40's after getting married in her late 30's! Having the financial stability, emotional maturity, and experience helped to make her a great mom.</div>

We don't have baby fever.. yet. We will see cute babies or baby related things and think they're adorable but we want plenty of time for ourselves first.

We plan on having kids starting when I'm 26.
For now, my cousin has a two year old boy and I'm going to her baby shower Saturday for the little girl that's due in August, so I've got my baby fix.

Anytime I get baby fever one of my cats or dog does something like a child and I get over it. Plus I ask my sister when she and her hubby are going to get prego......

My FI and I have decided we're not going to 'not try' to have a baby after we get married. I have a friend (she had her baby today!!!) but after her and her hubby got married she was on birth control and after a few months they realized they were super disappointed about not getting pregnant so she got off the pill and now have a cute baby girl and I feel like I would be that way.
I worked in a day care and I grew up dancing and then began teaching dance classes to little ones well from 3 years to high school age (some days I preferred the 3 year olds lol jk!! lol) so needless to say I LOVE kids! and FI wants to be a dad!! FI and I LOVE surprises so if after we're married and I get pregnant we will be more then excited!
But who knows... if it's in God's will for us that early on in marriage then awesome if not then we'll be ok with that too!
