We are too. I will be turning 29 when I get married and I don't want to wait any longer to start trying. I'm pretty sure I won't ever feel like I'm fully ready to have kids, but I know I want them and I can't wait forever!
We are not going to "try" per se - I won't be charting my cycles, or timing sex around fertile times, or anything like that. Rather I am going to stop getting my depo-provera injections (one is due the week of the wedding - and I won't get it done), just have sex like usual (2-3 times a week, sometimes more depending on our work schedules) and see how it goes.
Me too! I haven't figure out exactly when I'll stop BC, but we are going to try right away. I'll be 30, he'll be nearly 41. I'm getting excited!!
@sarahsd - me too!!!!!! My family is excited for us too, which is nice to know.
We are! We are just going to have fun for about 6 months after and if nothing after that then I will start charting. (although I have a feeling I will probably try to make sure it happens during certain times during the fun 6 months)
Me, me! I'm so hoping to have a baby soon-ish. We're not trying yet, but hoping to have a honeymoon baby. By chance, my furtile days falls within our honeymooning ... so I'm really, really hoping to have a honeymoon baby! I'm turning 33 this year and since I've realized that I want to have my own kids, I'm been worried about our ability to conceive. I'm getting old -- we gotta get crackin'!
I did this last summer and we conceived about 3 weeks after the wedding :)
(raises hand) Me! We def are ready to give our son a sibling. Hopefully a baby sister!!
I'm going off birth control 2 weeks before the wedding and then we're just going to see what happens. No charting or anything like that. Excited and nervous!!
We are! I went off the pill recently to give my body time to adjust. Fingers crossed!
We are!! We are starting to try the wedding night! Just yesterday day he said "Can you believe that there is a possibility that by August of next year, we could have a baby? That is so awesome!"
We aren't even engaged yet, this bee is still waiting, but I know for sure that we will be trying right away after we get married. I'm 30 and will be 31 when we get married so no time to waste!
So those of you who will actively try after the wedding that haven't already stated it, will you start right off the bat with charting temps and such? I'm not sure if we'll do that or not. I'm not on BC of any form so I won't need to discontinue that, but I chart my periods (there's a great app for iPhone/iTouch) regularly and keep track of cervical mucus and Mittelschmerz and I've been very carefully researching ovulation signs (cervical position, mucus, etc.) so we're going to go that route initially.
ooooh we are!!! i can't wait! i think my husband is more excited than I am - but we are both really excited to start. :)
Aww i love babies and me and my FI already have one five year old son. But i sadly will be starting nursing school not that its a bad thing but i dont want to conceive until i finish GOOD LUCK GUYS i think its so amazing to be able to plan and have all the excitement !
@Desireenacole - I'm in nursing school. It's hard, but, I have found that nursing instructors are by far the most empathetic (comes with the profession) and I will be in school too but I'm determined to make it work!
We were like Ms. Mini and not planning "per se" and it only took us only 2 weeks after the wedding to conceive our DD :)
We are too! I am stopping my BC two weeks before the wedding. I am a RN so I know I will be obsessive, I plan on charting and using the fertility predictor. I know it may be over kill but us nurses are planners. I am 30 and FI is 37, our wedding is is 4ish months and we can't wait
We started Natural Family Planning to see when we are able to concieve. This was a requirement for our church, but wow... really learned a lot about my body! We learned I may not be fertile every month. We are so excited to have kids! My older siblings have children and when we are with them, we can't stop talking about what life will be like with kids. But... we need to wait at least 2 years to find a career and house. : (
We are, too. I'm 30 and FI's 40, so we really don't want to wait any longer...
We are! FI and I absolutely cannot wait!! I think I had baby fever the moment we started dating, b/c i knew he was the one! And it doesn't help, my mom has been ready for grandkids for years now...
@Oct910Bride - mine too!!!! She gets a litte jealous when she sees other women her age with grandbabies. She's DYING for them!!!!!!! Right now they only have my dog, and you would honestly think she was her flesh and bloo grandchild the way they treat her!! But I'm glad to know my parents and FIL's are jurt as excited as we are!
yeah....we did the same thing as Ms Mini and I took the tet this morning.....I was able to get into the doctor today for the blood test so we will see for sure. Not gonna lie DH and I are kinda freaking out right now, we did not expect for this to happen so soon and we are not feeling exactally prepared.
we are for sure! we were actually trying before we decided to start planning. but im excited we cant wait we are both 26
Yes, I am going to try right after the wedding. Age is a big concern. I am 34 and my FI is 40. I am basically going to go off of birth control and see what happens.
We were back and forth on the issue, but we've just decided to give it a go. I'm off my birth control and we're just leaving it up to Him to see what happens. I'm 28 and hubby is 30. I've had endometriosis, so if it's going to cause any problems with getting pregnant, we'd need to know sooner rather than later!
We are too!!!!!
We are both 27 and really want to have a baby!
I won't be going off the nuvaring until after the honeymoon. Reason being I want to drink at my wedding and on the honeymoon and when I am in possible pregnancy mode I want to do it right (eating well, exercising and not drinking).
i would like to but i dont want to be on my period the day of my wedding... but i also dont want to take any medication that might effect pregnancy.
what can i take or do?
We are! While I'll be 26 and probs could wait a couple of extra years (although I am soooo broody right now!) FI is 30 come the wedding so think we should get started right after the wedding! I'd LOVE a honeymoon baby!
Not me! There is plenty of time to be tied down with a family. I want to enjoy being a married couple first. Maybe in 5 years or so, if at all!
We will be. FI is 42 and wants to get started ASAP. I'm nervous about having another one, I have a 3 year old now and was pretty sick with morning sickness with him.
I went off the pill at the end of the honeymoon. I thought of going off before the wedding but my dr pointed out that if I did get pregnant before the wedding there was a chance I wouldn't feel good the day of wedding or on honeymoon. Also, I didn't want to risk being on period during wedding/honeymoon. I went off the pill at the beginning of August and by got + test on Christmas morning! We are very excited to welcome our baby boy in September!
We might be... it would be best for us to have a baby while he's still in the military and we still have free health care.
We're still deciding. He's got 2 years left, and not reenlisting (woo hoo! college! yeah!)
@jackrabbit:Well... if you aren't pregnant the week before the wedding, start taking your BC pills again. Stop taking them after the wedding. It'll stop your period for the week (but it won't be "effective" at preventing pregnancy, although it may delay your conception plans/cycle that month).
Read the little info packet that comes with your pills, it'll give you a good idea of when you can take it.
We will be trying after we get back from our honeymoon. We have a 17 month old right now and she will be almost 2 1/2 when we try and conceive another little cutie :) Im excited, our family will then be complete <3 Im 20 and he is 21. We will be 21 and 22 when we try for our 2nd one :)
We will! We actually tried to get pregnant for about a year already, with no luck. We recently stopped "trying" because, well..... I don't want to be a pregnant bride. I want to have a great time with my guests on my wedding day and not feel fat, or bloated, or sick, etc. We'll try again as soon as this wedding is over and if we don't have a child right away, then we'll look into adoption. Etiher way, we WILL have a baby.
We'll be trying, I have been keeping track of my dates properly, just started taking supplements etc so hopefully we'll have a mini-us in November time if all goes well!
We've talked about not trying to try not to get pregnant. Basically I'm going to stop my pills a month or two before and we will see what happens. I don't think we will actively try until year after that.

We are!! FI is 30 and is more than ready to be a Dad (several occasions, when asked what he wanted for a gift, he responded with 'a baby'), I'm 26 and my 'inner mommy' has been desperately wanting to come out for a couple years now. We are actually going to start trying about 2 months before the wedding. We're also anxious because I was told that I may have a hard time getting pregnant and that if we want kids it's "now or never"
