  • DS was 3 years old when DH and I got married. We did want to wait until we had bought our house and felt financially ready to add another LO into the mix. We'll be celebrating our 2 year wedding anniversary in November. I don't think for us, it was the length of time rather than feeling financially able.

  • We started 4 months before our 2nd anniversary.

  • We were married 3.5 years when we started TTC.

    We actually decided about 6 months before getting married that we weren't going to have kids. But, around our 3 year anni, I suddenly had major "mommy" fever. (I like that term better because I don't just want a baby. I want to be a mommy.) Thankfully, DH decided that he would like a child as well. But, we waited a few months before trying because for a variety of reasons, we didn't want a 2009 baby.

  • We just got married in late June, started trying in August.  We're 32 & 39, so that's a big reason we decided not to wait.  We are also financially stable and otherwise "ready."

    I can't wait for the "im getting a divorce" post in 5 years or so because your husbands were fed up with your disgusting chair asses from playing on the knot all day and getting fired 4-5 times for not doing any work. you guys are all winners!! ~ Laur929

  • With #1, we started TTC 3 months after we got married. I had to come off BCPs for other reasons and decided we were ready. DH was 29, so he was ready to be a daddy! Smile With # 2, we were married 3 1/2 years.
  • We started a year and three months after we got married.

  • I had intended to try to get pregnant on my own last summer.  I stopped trying to find someone and new that I only had so much time to have children. 

    Then DH came along and asked that I give him a year.  He and I dated back in college, over 14 years agon.  He wanted to do things the old-fashioned way - date, get married and then have a child.  I conceeded.  We were married this past May and started immediately trying to have a child.

    I feel like our story is something you would see in a movie.  And I couldn't be happier.

  • We got married in 10/2008 and we started TTC in 02/2009. We had been together 3 yr before we got married though.

    How long had you been married before TTC?

  • We were married for 6 months, then started trying. 
  • My DH and I got married in May. We agreed that we would just see what happens for the 1st six months. If we're not pregnant then, we'll start charting and stuff.

  • Minus 3ish years.

    We aren't married yet and probably won't be for a couple of years for a variety of reasons. But we are ready to start our family. It's unconventional, but works for us.?

  • We were married in May 2008, off BCP that cycle. We weren't preventing anything but really started TTC in September 2008. BFP in early February.
