    2.5 years after we got married. I was 27 when I got married so I was definitely not ready to "settle" and do the suburbs and kids thing.

    Right after we got married. We've been together a few years, I hit 30, so we figure might as well start (still ttc, as not lucky yet though).

    I was already pregnant on my wedding date and I was pregnant with LO 2 a few months after our first anniversary.

    We started TTC about 2 1/2 years into our marriage. LO was born a little less than 4 1/2 years after the wedding.

    7 years. I was 32 when I got pregnant. We've been together 16 years (met my freshman year). We were having too much fun as DINKs.

    We started to think about starting a family by the time we'd been married for about 4 years. We were both in graduate school up until that time and we knew, even from the beginning l, that we wanted a handful of years on our own before trying to have a child.

    LO was born a few months after our 5th anniversary.

    @Bao: Started the consultations with an RE one year exactly after getting married. Got pregnant four months after that!

    we never actively TTC...it was 4 years after marriage I found out I was pregnant with our first child. Had we actually planned, I think it would have been longer!

    We started TTC about 8 months after we got married. It took awhile and we had a m/c in there, so LO1 was born about 2.5 years after we got married.

    @MrsLonghorn: I'm another odd one out with you! We didn't start trying until our 6th year of marriage either and had our LO a year later. We are 35/34

    We started trying a few months before our 3rd anniversary and had LO a few months after our 4th anniversary.

    We actually started trying before we were married.

    Didn't end up having G until a few years later.

    7.5 years. We will be celebrating 10 years and have a 19 month old in October.

    A little over two years after we were married. We'll be married over 5.5 years when our LO arrives.

    It was about a year after our wedding. It was not even vaguely on my radar before then...but when the fever hit, it hit hard!

    We waited 3 years.

    We got married in August and the next June started NTNP. Got pregnant then. So 10 months or so.

    Started trying about a year and half into marriage. Two years later, I'm six weeks pregnant. I was (and am) young and thought it would be easy. It hasn't been. Glad I didn't wait any longer.

    We took the first year of being married for ourselves, and then "started" TTC on our one year anniversary - I officially threw away my BC and all. But then it took me another 5 years to get pregnant. The infertility was really hard but on the other hand, we had so many great experiences and learned so much about being together and being married during that time that I think it was really good for us.

    8 years, then it took 8 months to get pregnant. (I was 1 week shy of 35 when LO1 was born. )

    2.5 years. It was our perfect timing.

    Immediately. We'd been living together for 4 years, and D had really hardcore baby fever.

    Almost 3 years.

    2 years after we married. I had DS #1 a few months before our third anniversary at 31 years old. I got pregnant with DS #2 before our 5th anniversary and had him in May of last year at 35 years old.

    A little less than 2 years. I was ready way sooner, but we had house stuff we wanted done first. Plus I knew DH would love some time just having no extra responsibility and enjoy being married.

    I'm 26 now and the baby fever is so high. I'm on cycle 5 of trying.

    A year and a half. It took 3 months to conceive and now I'm 24 weeks along. We were together for 5 years before we got married and are in our late 20's so we knew we didn't want to wait much longer.

    @Bao: We got married last January, and I went off of BCP in April. We're still TTC and have some into some infertility issues.

    I wanted to be married 2 years prior.

    Just shy of a year!

    We figured it would take some time to get knocked up after birth control, so we dropped it four months before the wedding. Got knocked up the second month trying, Wish it was so easy this time, this is cycle four and I'm not feeling it. Probably onto 5 in a week...
