How long after you started dating your SO did you decide to have children?

Question

I know not everyone wants kids, which is perfectly fine, but for those of you that DO want kids, when did you decide to actively start trying? How long after you met/dated/married your SO? And how old were you and your SO? Just curious ☺️

Answer

My SO and I have been together for a little over a year now and we both really want kids !! We both know we need to finish college first so in another 2 years, we'll have kids

Answer

My man and I were together 7 years before we had our first tiny human. She's a year old now. We had decided 5 years ago that when we turned 25 we would start trying to have one. Our plan was 1 before we're 30. Sine we knew it could take a while we decided at 25 we'd have plenty of time. I had been on birth control (pill) for 4 years then got taken off of it due to medical issues and had been off of it 1 year and a half. (His pull out game is strong 😆). Well anyways April 2015 (our anniversary) we tried for the first time May 2015 I find out I'm pregnant and turned 25 in June. It happened a lot faster than we anticipated but we were blessed with perfect pregnancy and an absolutely perfect baby. Im 26 and he's 27.

Answer

We dated a month and a month later I was pregnant!!! I was on the iud and took it out!!! And we had our first son together!!! He is now 2 in a half years old and then we had our second child (a boy) he will be 1 next month and we are expecting our 3rd child (a girl) together due in July!! And we will be together for 4 years in July as well!!

Answer

We had been together over 6 years and married for 3 of those before we started to try. Now we've been together 8 years, married for 4 and have a 6 month old

Answer

My SO and I want to wait a long time. We've been together for 2 years and will finish up our second degrees next year. Then we're going to BOLC, probably get engaged around that point, then I'm going to grad school and he's going to ranger school then the state trooper academy, then we want to be married for a few years and well established in both our jobs before we pop out kids. I'm assuming I'll be around 29/30 when I have my first kid. So we will have been together for 10/11 years.

Answer

We were together for about 6 months. Took us almost a year. Now I'm almost 15 weeks and have to get a d&c on Tuesday due to severe medical reasons....
