great advice from everyone. We have been married a little over 9 years and had DS1 after 6 years of marriage. I like you wanted to have kids early on I was 23yrs old and felt like i wanted to start a family. I thought God wanted us to as well.
BUT it didn't happen for 4 years and thank God it didn't because I think back now and we were not ready. We needed that time to build a strong marriage and grow together. We had a fanastic time together we went out with friends , to dinner, movies had lots of time together, went on hoildays. I studied we got on with our lives.
Because I knew that God wanted us to have kids and he would make it happen, I had to be patient.
We were and in 2007 DS1 was born , what a suprise i was working full time studying part time we had been in our new house we brought for 6 months. But the timing was perfect and we weren't TTC i wasn't focused on it. It was the right time in God's eyes and part of the plan.
So my advice is focus on your life and what do you want to look back on when your 75yrs old and sitting down with a cup of tea and talking to your great grand kids.
Do you want to have great stories to tell of a life lived to the fullest??
I do
