How do you keep baby fever at bay? 😭

I’ve been craving a baby for about 6 years now. I absolutely adore babies & kids, and there is nothing I want more than to get to experience pregnancy and motherhood. I managed to keep the baby fever at bay in the past by telling myself that I was too young/should wait until I’m married/don’t have enough money.

However, I just got married last month and the baby fever is sooooo real, and it’s stronger than ever. My husband wants to wait until we have better jobs & make more money (I’m just going to school these days), which is completely reasonable, but my hormones are just driving me crazy 😩😭😭😭

Even tonight he was talking about how sexy it will be when we actually have sex with the intent to conceive a baby... (and that of course lead to us having some amazing sex immediately afterwards, but alas we still aren’t currently TTC). We talk about our future kids all the time- about how we’ll raise them and wondering what they’ll look like and who they’ll be. It’s definitely on both of our minds, but the timing isn’t quite right financially & he still is saying that he wants to wait like 5 more years.

I respect his feelings and I’m definitely not going to press the matter quite yet, but how the hell am I not supposed to lose my god damn mind over here? 😭

(No hate on my husband at all, he’s absolutely being the logical one about this. My hormones are just ridiculous and mean to me 😝)
