We've know each other for 13 years, been together for 11 years and married for 4years. I'm 32 and he's 35 now, and we're really excited to starting this next chapter of our lives!

raejessica · October 2014

DH and I married less than a year after we started dating, at the ages of 19 & 20. Our 10th wedding anniversary is the day before our due date.
He's in the military, so starting a family was on the back burner for a while. We had a miscarriage in 2012 and had been trying ever since, with a deployment in there as well.
Don't let others bother you with their opinions; they don't matter. We were young when we got married and never listened to any comments about our ages and we are happier than ever! Those who doubted we would last, have learned that some things are just meant to be (my parents included).

queenhoneybee · October 2014

We've been together for 9 years, and married for 6 years. Don't worry about what people say. It's your life, you're decision. Ultimately the baby will be your and your partners responsibility. Best wishes!

MusicGirl630 · October 2014

We've been together for 13 years, married for 11. This is our first. We're late bloomers. Don't worry about what other people are saying; if I could do it all over, I probably wouldn't have waited so long to start this chapter in our lives

Wish4BabyM · October 2014

Married just about 1 year but together for 16 years! So I think everyone expected to try right away.. But we has the reverse as you.. It took us a year to finally, hopefully, have a successful pregnancy. However the entire year people kept asking consistently are you pregnant yet are you pregnant yet??? I was very annoying and kind of bothered me as we were having problems and had a miscarriage.

I'm sorry you feel you may deal with slack.. Hopefully your wrong and if your right, screw them. It's you and your hubs choice what best for you.. Best of luck!

dancinqueeen1717 · October 2014

We were high school sweethearts too! We started dating at 15, got married at 24. So we've been together 13 years, married for 4.

lgsdesigner · October 2014

awoo22 · October 2014

We've been together for 6 years but married for 4 months. We only waited 3 months until we decided to try to conceive. We've been together for a while already, so we felt we were ready for that next step!

lala5507 · October 2014

Married for 7.5 years.

annerz22 · October 2014

Together 8 and married 5. We got pregnant with DS1 at just shy of 2 years married but started trying just before our 1st anniversary. Don't let peoples comments get to you, no matter the situation someone out there will have something negative to say.

How long has everyone been with their partners? We've only been married for 9 months so I feel like we're going to get some slack for not "taking the time to enjoy our marriage"

We surprisingly got pregnant with our son 5 months into our marriage. Sometimes I wish we could have waited a little longer because I feel like we never really got a chance to be married ourselves. We never even had a chance to go on a honeymoon :-/

However, we've been married 4.5 years, but together 13 years. We had plenty of "just us" time in those 10 years before Hunter was born. Married life isn't different than pre-married life (unless you didn't live together beforehand.) We weren't ready to be pregnant, but once he came, we were totally ready to have him in our lives. If it feels right for you, then you shouldn't worry about what other people think. It's your life, not theirs.

(...I do still wish we had gotten a honeymoon though. hehe)

jennnyboomboom · October 2014

DH and I have been together 9 years, married 2!

u197034 · October 2014

My husband and I started dating when we were 16/17. We've been married now for five years. I'm 26 this year.

itsmevkb · October 2014

Our tenth wedding anniversary will be in May, right after I have our fifth child. Talk about perhaps not taking time to enjoy your marriage!

But anyway, I got pregnant about 8 months after we got married and have never regretted it. We dated for a few years and were both in our 30s when we got married so I didn't feel like we were missing out on anything. We had both had time to do things we wanted to do before "settling down."

beezybaby · October 2014

Together for 10, married for 4, known each other for 13.

lovebeingblonde · October 2014

Together for about 9.5... married for just over 6. We actually knew of each other when we were in high school (he was 2 years behind me, but I graduated shortly after turning 17 so not that big of an age difference). Although he does like to joke that I robbed the cradle lol.

We were damn near best friends for about 6 months prior to us starting to date too... so guess that makes it about 10 & 6

ambarnett1 · October 2014

We never got to enjoy our marriage. We've been together for 3 years, married (when I was 32 weeks) for 8 months.

aurora333 · October 2014

Together for 14 years, married for a year and a half. We take our dear sweet time, hahaha. But really, time means little. If you've built your lives together, it doesn't matter how long you've been together; you just are and will be. Trust you made the right decision to bring a new life into the world w your partner and ignore any negative comments. CONGRATS!

spanx21 · October 2014

We've been together for 8 years, but only married for 2. We got pregnant with our first 4 months after getting married and he arrived a month after our first anniversary. We got comments from some - but mostly people who didn't know us well. If you knew us, there was no secret we weren't going to waste any time. Don't worry about what others have to say :-*

gauxie · October 2014

Together 7 years and married for 18 months. I'm now 10 weeks pregnant. We are glad we waited to marry and to start our family, but truthfully things happen when they happen.
