Advice for dealing with family pressure while TTC?

Question

My husband and I are in our late 20s and our families have upped the pressure on us to have kids. We have been quietly TTC for 3 months and don't want to share that we are doing so with our families, lest they try to become more involved. Any advice on managing family pressures to conceive?

Answer

Same problem!! My parents keep voulenteering to watch our son so we can have an adult night lol! 
We've been ttc since may and everyone still thinks I'm on bc. I just tell them I'm waiting until our finances are in order and everyone is settled. We just moved and want to work on the house anyway.

Answer

Same for us. Got married 10/1/16. I'm 29, husband is 28. We have been asked what seems like CONSTANTLY since we got married and even before the wedding when we will have a baby. At this point my response is just "not today" and on to the next topic of discussion. I have 5 siblings all of which have at least one kid and he has two siblings who are done having kids and have 2 each so I get it but dang, does it get old!

Answer

We told my parents and husbands parents at about 6 months ttc. It took the pressure off and now they know we are doing our best. Going on month 15 :( I am so glad we told them.
