How long till? or how long did you?

[MrsJoey]

For those of us who DONT have any babies yet...how long till you and your SO have 'em!? :sexin:

and for those of you who DO have kiddies...how long did you wait till you had 'em?
:baby:

Joey and I have talked about it and decided we're in no rush! we've been apart so long, and are so young, when he gets home we want to have time to be selfish and enjoy eachother-just some 'us' time :welcomehome: so i say 5 years minimum before we start trying/seriously thinkin about havin lil joeys (oh lord:pillowfight:) or kellys haha.

what about everyone else!?

[ReginaCherie]

umm well we had rylie before we even got married. so dont take us as an example. but we are talking about having another when he gets back. then again we are very back and forth about.

[Mouse]

I had Damien when I was 20. I wanted to be young enough to play with my kids and also be young enough when they move out to enjoy life. Dev was not planned but I was 23 when I had him.
Tom and I are talking/planning on having a little one together. We never talked about when and don't avoid trying to conceive. It will happen when it's meant to, if it's meant to. Plus both my pregnancies were difficult so the sooner the better for me from a physical standpoint.

[Meredith]

Mike and I are with you and Joey, Kell..I want babies -- more than I probably should but we've decided that it was something we both needed to be ready for and right now we're happy without anything getting the way of being spontaneous. So I probably have to wait a little longer than I want to but there's no need to rush and I WILL NOT force Mike to have kids before he's ready, that's just not fair. That, and he wants to be around when I'm preggo so that rules out any time soon...I say it will be 3 years before we have kids, 1.5 for him to get ready to/actually deploy and then a 1.5 for him to get out and us to get settled in somewhere.

Glad you guys have talked about it and decided on something together. The "baby talk" can be kinda hard sometimes!! Especially when you both want different things! It's nice to be on the same page!!

[Danie]

We met in the Navy, and our first year and half was apart from each other, so we kinda didn't have a choice to wait initially. But being that we were apart for so long, we decided to 'get to know' each other again. From the time we got married to the time we had Colton it was 4 years and 1 day... lol. His birthday is the day after our anniversary. Poor kid. It was a great time frame for us. We both were ready... not that you really are read for kids... but it was a good time in our lives.

[Mary Cat]

Well Matt and I just got married and we were ttc on our honeymoon :)
We've been together for 4 years though and we want a big family.
In another week or two I'll let you know how the test turns out ;) hehe

[Spahr]

I like surprises ;) lol actually I think u remember I was TTC before but was told that it wouldnt happen on our own. I think being catholic and being raised being told that you get married and have kids had an impact on that decision. And I never got back on BC when my Ex and I split.... I was told it wasn't going to happen so I wasn't worried about it. But yes we did use other things and obviously it didn't do its job. We had talked about kids before and we both wanted 'em but I don't think either of us thought it would happen this fast or soon. But we already are talking about when our 2nd will be. I want my kids kind of close together. We both want lots of kids about 1-2 years apart. I want 6 and he wants anywhere between 2-12 (depends on the day lol).

[Lana]

Ahhh I'm not ready for kids, I'd like some alone time with Nick as a married couple before we start having children. But I'd love to have them, so I've set the time at 27 or around there haha, but who knows - only time will tell!

[Kira]

Well me and Adam had kids really early in our relationship. We were only dating like 3 months before we concieved Donovan. We didn't get married till years later though.

Yeah do not take any advice I got..lol.

[Kathryn]

I'm not planning on having anymore babies..lol At least that's my mind set right now. I can barely handle my 5 year old..the adding an infant to it?!?! I'd go crazy..ha

[littleurban]

I'm really not sure if I want to have kids! I love them to death but I like the more of being an auntie kind of thing; where I can pick them up, play with them, and all that jazz but don't have to take care of them 24\7 lol. The type of job I want to get into won't allow me to be the mom that I would like to be. I would have to be the mom with the nanny!!

[Spahr]

lmao me either!:busted:

[Mary Cat]

Honestly I think as much as you try to plan when to have kids, it'll happen when it's meant to
I just hope that time is now for us :) lol

[Kira]

Your so right mary!

I'll keep my finger's crossed for you!

[Mary Cat]

Thank you! :)

[Nuky Loves Nue]

We had a really rushed marriage so we didn't really rush into having kids (even though I really wanted kids right away). We were married for almost two years and I decided we should wait and grow up a little bit first. Then BAM!!! There goes the little pink line. Figures! When I finally got it in my head I wasn't ready to have a kid I got preggers....LOL

[~*Kandice*~]

I got preggers with David a on our 1yr anniversary. And i had decided not to have kids anymore because we had been trying and it wasnt working so then bam! R&R baby. And Kayla was a right before deployment baby...got pregnant with her right before jason had to go to iraq again haha. Sometimes i wish i could go back and have a yr just me and jason but i'm glad i had them young...i dont want to be crapping my pants when they are just moving out...i want to be able to party still when the leave haha!!

[snwalways41903]

william and i were married 1 week when i got prego for the first time, i was 20 when he was born, then josh came when i was 21 i turned 22 the next month, and then darren came when i was 25!! we talked about kids before we got married, and it just kinda happened, im with mouse, we wanted to be young enough to play with them and young enough to still enjoy life after they move out!!

[KristiMarie]

JM and I cannot wait! You ladies are really the only ones who know this that I have ever told (hes told ppl) but the same month i met him, he lost a baby. He got his best friend preggo and she had a miscarrage. I didnt find out till the drug problem we went through last year about it. He def. wants kids ASAP but at the same time he understands I need to finish nursing school first, as soon as school is over though, i want kids right away!

[Belinda]

Erik and I are planning on waiting to get me preggers until my senior year of college. That way I can graduate (baby belly and all), then have a little one. :) Of course, if it happens before then (we're planning on getting married this winter), we'll figure things out.

[soldiersgurl23]

Wesley and I were married 8 months when we got preggo with our little girl that is fixing to be 4 months.Wesley wants to try for alittle boy but I think its alittle early because of me having a C-Section but u never know 2 weeks from now I could be preggo again.We tryed for forever it seem. Then when we went on leave to Texas I got preggo.And we go back on leave to Texas the 13th so u never know.

[Jessie.Rose]

If it were up to me I'd have kids already :P lol....Jamie was like well I want to wait a few years after we're married because then we have at least 2 years together befroe.....and im like babe....ya know....we're living together now, just like we're married....so technically we're already startign our 2 years together....but he also tells me a lot that he wants to be young when he has kids so he can mess around and play football and jetskis and just have fun still when they are in middle and high school.....and he changes his mind on how many a lot too....when i met him he wanted at least 3 so we could have a big family and lots more grandkids....now its 2....and only 2...but i think ill win with 4 :P

[ashandbrons]

My lil guy is 20 months old and we will start trying when Bronson comes home. I had a c-section too and I wanted to wait atleast a year for mine to heal. Plus I really enjoyed Bryson growing up! I wouldn't change anything!

[Ameranne]

John and I keep telling everyone we are on the six month program we dated for six months then got engaged were engaged for a little over six months and got married and now we were about 7-8 months into the marriage when we got pregnant!

[sandg]

I want to wait until we are middle twenties. I want a house and cars paid off, and A LOT of alone time with my husband! hA

[MrsJoey]

girl im right there with you! i want joey to myself for a while! :) we're young anyways!

[MichaelaEScheerens]

Zach says 5 years... I'm saying 8 or more ;) we'll see who'll win!!!! (probably him) but either way, not for a long time!!!!

[Lauren_USMC_love]

Levi and I were married for only a month and now I'm prego :) We went with if it happens, it happens. I'm like the other ladies. I wanna be able to play with my kids and still have fun when they move out. But that's just me.
