    @blondebride2: I just posted about this. We initially wanted to wait for two years, but we're getting xloser to being ready. It might end up being later this year that we TTC.

    We just got married this past Saturday and already the "baby fever" is overwhelming lol. I think we're going to start TTC in April of 2012 unless we feel ready before then :)

    We're hoping to start TTC at the end of this year/beginning of next. Ideally, I would get pregnant in March 2012 :)

    We started trying pretty much right after the wedding. I was pregnant 3 months after we got married, miscarried, and I'll be around 4 months pregnant at our year anniversary.

    We said 3 years since I'm 25 and we want to buy a house first... That said, I wouldn't be surprised if it happens in 2 :)

    We'll wait at LEAST 1.5 years before we "stop trying NOT to" get pregnant.  I'm almost 30, but I don't feel ready yet.

    I got married in March 2010 and we will probably start trying at the start of 2012.  I'm off the pill and while we are avoiding high fertility days we aren't really trying that hard to not get pregnant.  We would be perfectly happy if we did.  The real reason we are putting it off is because I would like to take one more big vacation together beforea baby and this year we have to travel for so many friends weddings that we probably won't have time for a real vacation until early next year.

    We've been married a year at this point and I see us waiting another two before we start trying for a baby.  At the moment I'm coming off of Depo-Provera and until all the side effects subside I'm not ready to consider getting preggos.

    We agreed to wait two years, but I think it might be closer to 1 1/2...we'll see. Right now we're looking for a house first!

    So funny, I was just thinking about this!  When we get married in October, I will be 31 and FI will be 29... We will have been together 7 years!!!  I am thinking by about 6 months to a year after we will start TTC, but who knows where that will lead us, or if we will have any luck!  But, I definitely plan on going off the pill this coming fall!!! EEEK!

    We got married in October, and started TTC in November. We weren't being particularly careful in between those two times (mostly "pull and pray"--although praying wasn't really part of it, we would have been thrilled if we had gotten pregnant then).

    we're not in any hurry so probably three years, sometime in 2013 give or take.  this should be enough time for us to renovate, travel and just enjoy married life.

    I want a honeymoon baby, but FI is making sure I keep my head out of the clouds. Probably one year after we're married to give us time to purchase a house.

    Probably 3+ years. We have a lot of world traveling, a cross-country move, and the reestablishing of our careers to take care of first!

    This summer. We'll have been married about two years and things are really settling in, so we're finally comfortable. Plus i have some fertility issues we're not gambling with...otherwise i'd be content to wait a few more

    This is weird, I know that I commented on this thread about 8hrs ago regarding TTC, however I just learned that I am PREGNANT!!!! Not sure how far along yet, though.

    Oh wow... I don't even like kids, so we don't know if we're having them. However, if we do decide to have kids it will be at least 5 years before we get pregnant. We want to enjoy our marriage together without kids before we introduce them into our lives. I have many friends who love love kids and will probably get pregnant within a year or so.

    We don't want kids before 30 so considering we'll be 25 when we get married, 5 years. I have PCOS and am overweight so getting pregnant will be tricky. We may have to start the pre-conception steps a few years earlier so that we have some cushion.

    10-12 years.  We are debating whether not we even want kids.  If we have them I will cross my fingers and try to kick one out in my mid-late 30s.   Till then we will lounge around, spend money, travel, sleep. haha.

    DH said (his words) I want sperm to meet egg by the time you are 32.  That would be in 2 years.  I am so not ready.  I think he is worried we will have fertility issues if we wait too long.  But, both my grandmothers had children up until their early forties.  Ideally, I would like to get done with my residency (another 3 years), and also enjoy our marriage for a few more years before taking on the responsibility of little ones.  I want to travel some too.

    @hannathehamster: Eeep!  Congrats! 

    After the wedding (April), I imagine we'll wait about 3 years.  Depends whether I get into school in the fall though...definitely can't be pregnant while doing this course.  So if I don't get in this fall...then babies will probably wait til after I do get in (it's a 2 year course).  Hopefully not too long of a wait, cuz I want one already!
