We didn't want our kids super close so we thought 3 to 4 years apart would be good. Since it took us almost a year IF issues to get pg w/DD and she was about to turn 2, I stopped BC in Dec hoping to be pg by this summer. Huge surprise BFP this month! So the kids will be about 2 yrs and 8 months apart... Not that far off from the 3 year mark and I'm just so thankful we didnt have to do IF treatments this time so I'm happy!

I'm 33, DH is 35.
Married for 4 years, together for 10.
I'm originally from NY, but moved around for a while (was living in Montreal for 7 years!) and then DH dragged me back to NY.
Now is kind of the perfect time for us. We own a 2 bedroom apartment. The rooms are very big so there's enough room for 2 little ones. We're getting older and didn't want to wait much longer. I just started an awesome job that pays more than my previous career so we're in a good place financially. We have family close by that can help with little ones. So it's kind of the perfect storm. We don't know if we'll stay in this area or how many kids we'll have or what we'll be able to afford down the road, but right now, things are working. On top of all that, I'm the maid of honor in a wedding in August so I'll be pregnant but not in labor at the wedding.

Why is now "the right time" to start or add to your family?
DH always said he wanted to take a few years to be married without kids. He originally suggested 5 years (oddly enough - I'm now due on our 5th anniversary). At the time I was OK with that because I was debating if I would ever want kids. We were also dead broke. We've experienced a lot of personal and financial changes over the past couple of years that have created an environment that we are comfortable raising a child in and made me recognize how much I do want to be a mom.
