How Did You Know?

Question

So, my husband and I have been happily married for almost 3 years now. I'm 25, he's 26. I feel like the longer we're together the more I get baby fever! 😍 We have discussed it and want babies in the future. But I think I want a baby now! How did you guys know you were ready to start trying for a baby?

Answer

My husband and I are your exact same age and have been married for 2 years. We are TTC baby #1 going on 4 months. We discussed it together at first and the conversation consumed us because there are so many variables. We made a budget to figure out if we could afford to have a baby. then we took two weeks to think about it separately (didn’t talk about it at all and just let it sink in) and set a date to discuss it again and make a final decision one way or the other. We ultimately decided that our hearts were set on starting our family no matter how hard or easy it may be. We prayed on it hard! It’s definitely a daunting decision. We are the only people in our friend group married and none of our friends have kids. I’ve learned a lot in the last past 4 months and our relationship has grown so much.i haven’t regretted making the decision to start a family once. 😉 always here if you need to chat. Good luck in whatever you decide!

Answer

It’s hard. We were 28 when we decided we wanted a family. Well I’m 31 now and finally pregnant with our first. We are financially steady and family is important to us. It makes my husband so happy to know that he’s having a baby. I know I’ll be happy but the initial shock of losing sleep and being a pensioner in my home for 3 months is bothering me. I always knew I wanted kids to continue my legacy. I just know if I’ll ever be “ready”. I don’t know if anyone is. Then again we’re in a small apartment and I was really hoping to own a home by now so that’s got some part in my hesitation.
