How long after marriage would you recommend my husband and I to have our first child? Just curious on everyone's answers.

Question

My husband and I just got married this past April 2017. We have, of course talked about babies and are really excited about them, but we really want to make sure we have our time as a married couple first before we become mom and dad! Lol just wanting your thoughts on how long we should wait. [I and 24yrs old and my husband is 25yrs old]

Answer

2-3. That way you can gather some money up to be 100% sure you can care for said child

Answer

Whenever you're ready.

Answer

One of my past teachers waited until she was 27 to have her child (married at 19) because she wanted to enjoy time with her husband first

Answer

I'd wait a few years so you can enjoy your time as a married couple before the hectic life with a baby comes

Answer

Whenever you two feel that you're ready.

Answer

We waited 9months before TTC. We are 28-30.

Answer

We started TTC a few months before we reached the 3 year mark, and our first child will be born in October... right around our 4th anniversary. I'm hoping she doesn't come on the anniversary date! We've been together for 10 years total.

Answer

Whenever you feel ready.
Some prefer younger,  some prefer to wait. 
I was less than a year married to get pregnant

Answer

After you have kids things change. Not that it's worse, but you can enjoy more of each other, have fun and can focus on just you too more. But I mean you can do that with a kid, it's just a lot more difficult 😂 me and my man are lucky to get alone time maybe once a week.

Answer

I was pregnant at my wedding. So I don't really know how to answer lol. Whatever feels right.
