How did you know when you were ready to start TTC?

Question

I recently got married to my wonderful husband. Originally we were going to wait a year or two so that we could enjoy being married, take some trips together, etc.
However we bought a house last October and all our money has been going into the house and now instead of saving for trips were paying off credit cards. Obviously money well spent- no doubt.
My thoughts have since shifted to TTC soon because if we wait until we take these trips I’ll be older than I want and we will always find an excuse not to. 
My hubby doesn’t disagree but isn’t fully on board. Part of it being I just started a new job and won’t have health coverage until October (I’m covered for emergencies through my old plan but not general stuff) 
Anyway I was just wondering how everyone knew you and your SO were ready to start? Are meant typically slower? 
We’re finically stable, both have post Bach degrees just a matter of changing how we spend our money.

Answer

We have been together since I was 15 and had been together nearly 9 when we were married. He is also two years older.
When we got married we were had already traveled Europe and the UK and went to Italy for our Honeymoon. We were financially stable and able to buy a house to come back to after we married. We bought a dog after a few months of living in our house and then a year later we were ready to start trying as that seemed the next logical step.

Answer

My husband and I figured that we were ready when we kept saying "but why not" .... we would  ask each other questions or come up with a scenario, obviously regarding TTC, and everything lead back to "why not, we can do it." Hopefully that makes sense.

Answer

Ugh! I never considered it would be a problem to be married to a man who is only 1 year older than me but much less emotionally mature... now I'm ready but he's not close. It's causing us to somewhat have a few fights which really sucks 😞

Answer

I did trips first then TTC and saving at I'm 25. I would maybe do some small trips for a year especially since TTC is brutal and kids are expensive. I'm not regretful at all I took 4 years of marriage for travel and to have fun.
