How long after getting married did you have your first child?

Question

My in-laws seem to think I should get on with it (we don't have s*x so it's unlikely!! LOL) but been married 3 years...how long before you had a baby?

Answer 1

Six  months after we were married - the second one came 20 months later.  Been married for 14 years.  

Answer 2

Answer 3

Six years before we married, her child by her late husband. Great kid and no diapers.:)

Answer 4

Answer 5

3 1/2 months... oops!

Answer 6

Six days :-) I was due three weeks after the wedding day, but the little man was in a hurry!

Answer 7

First one was 7 years and the second was 11 years, both boys.

Answer 8

I have been married for 5 years and we have no kids...

My in-laws wanted us to gave kids in the fist year.. I don't think so...

Answer 9

Our first was two years after we married!

BUT the bigger question I have is why are you not having s*x?????

Answer 10

Jorge was born 8 days after our 4yr wedding anniversary

Answer 11

I was married 5yrs before our first and 6 yrs after that we had our 2nd.  Don't rush it. Your in-laws just want a grand child.lol

Answer 12

There's no time limit.  Some people wait longer than others to get their stuff together.  If you already have problems in your marriage I think you should not be thinking about kids anytime soon.

Answer 13

10 months.  I got pregnant a month after we got married.

Answer 14

We were married 6 months when our first child came along.  Oops.

Answer 15

About 2 1/2 years after we married.

You're married for 3 years and haven't had s*x ? Is that a mis-type, I hope?

Answer 16

my husband and I were married 9 months when we conceived our first child and we were married 17 months when she was born.  She is 4 months old.

Answer 17

I didn't. I'm childfree by choice. I like the s*x part, but the pregnancy/childbirth/child-raising part has never appealed to me.  

Answer 18

The childrens come after your marriage?  Here at the trailer park we only gets married after she's done being knocked up.  It's much less likely to interrupt the flow of monthly gub'ment checks that-a-way.

Oh, and just 'cause you don't have s*x with your husband doesn't mean you cain't get pregnant.  It just means there is a better chance that the baby won't have any of your husband's features, like skin color.

Answer 19

Well the first time we were only married for a year, but then I lost the baby. The second time around we were married 2 1/2 years when I got pregnant and I am due in 2 weeks!!

Answer 20

I put my cart before my horse...we were married a month when we had our first child.  My inlaws tried to force hubby's middle brother into having kids by saying they'd cut them out the will...didn't work!  You have kids when you feel like you're ready!  They don't have to raise them, support them or have anything to do with rearing children, so it's not up to them.  But, unless you're the second virgin Mary, I don't see where you have to worry about it.  lmbo  Bless your heart.  My advice?  Tell them to mind their own business!

God's blessings on you and yours...Always!

Answer 21

We waited a year and a half. Gave us enough time to let us get to know each other better as a married/living together couple. I decided that I was going to be through having children by the age of 30, and that's what we did. My first baby was born when I was 24 and I had my second baby at 29. Now, I have a 19 year old and a 14 year old and I'm still YOUNG...lol

Answer 22

DUH that requires s*x and without s*x i'd say never, but theres no time limit on that, its when the two individuals have decided to  

Answer 23

everyone is different . it depends on where your priorities are . we wanted a family right away so  i had mine within a year .i  dont regret at all but wished i would have had more time to enjoy my hubby alone .why dont you have s*x with your hubby?  

Answer 24

I've been married 7 years and we are not ready yet.  We enjoy each other.  I get alot of c**p too but you have to live your life noone else.  Don't do it if you are not ready.  who cares about everyone else.  Good luch with the marriage and the s*x thing.

Answer 25

If you dont have s*x then I'm guessing your not in a completely stable relationship. If this is the case then I suggest you don't have children yet. Don't rush into having kids if your not ready =)

Answer 26

We are marred for soon-to-be 4 years (sept.) and no kids yet.  My parents and in-laws all bugged us around the two year mark.  I used to say, "I'll have baby when I'm done 'raising' this one." (pointing to my DH).  We haven't heard anything about it for a while.  My parents have 10 grandkids and my in-laws have 30.  I don't know why they're not satisfied with that...sigh.  I guess because they all want a brand new baby around again.  I'd be more than happy (not!) to breed for their happiness if they are more than willing to come do the all-night feedings and all-night diaper changes and all-night colic floor-pacing.  Until then, it's our decision -- and ONLY ours!  :-)  Good luck!

Answer 27

We had our first child before we got married, then the second one we were married for 3 years before we got pregnant.  We wanted them closer together but they are 5 yrs apart.
