    So ever since I got engaged (well, before too) people have been constantly asking when we're planning on starting a family.

    So the thing is, we're not. We've decided not to have children and it was a decision we did not make lightly. 

    People have actually been laughing at me and saying, "oh you're young, you'll change your minds", and the thing is that we won't , because our decision was made partially because of a health issue I have, that I do not like to disclose to people.

    How to I get people to back off and stop pushing without a) being rude or b) disclosing a bunch of personal information?

    And also, why are some people SO PUSHY when it comes to babies? Like seriously, step away from my uterus!

    It's rude to ask since it's no one's business, but people do it anyway. Changing the subject is the most tactful thing you can do. Eventually some people will get the hint.
