It's pretty bad too. I had it well enough before we were married and it's only gotten worse! It really didn't help when my MIL came up to us with her friends granddaughter (3 months old) at our reception and said "Don't I look great with a grandbaby in my arms?". LOL!
However, my family very much wants me to wait a few years (or my mother, more like ten years!) since I'm only 21. DH and I decided to wait at least a year after we got married, but has recently had a change of mind since being signed with a talent agency and wants to wait even longer. He thinks a baby = life over for some reason. I know we aren't in the best situation for one right now, but geez I can't help it! *sigh*
I guess for now I will have to "oooooh" and "ahhhhh" over my friends babies. :P

Personally, I think waiting a year after marriage is a good idea. So many changes and adjustments happen when a couple gets married. Enjoy life now and settle into a happy relationship... then turn it on its feet with a little one! haha BONGO HUNGRY!!!! :icon_barbar:

I know what you mean! I, too, have the baby bug!
We're going to start trying later in the year, but for now I just ooh and aaah right along with you!
Baby bug here too!!! We did wait a year, and by the time we start TTC it'll be a year and 2 mos! Good luck! I feel your pain!

I've got it too, bad. My son is going to be 9 this year and I feel my baby making days slipping away. DH would prefer to wait, but I'm not going for that.
I'm hoping we were successful in the last 2 weeks since the wedding, I only need to wait 10 more days to find out!!!! He has basically conceded to having a baby, because he knows he'll be thrilled once it happens.
I understand why young newlyweds wait at least a year, it's nice to enjoy just us time, but we've never had that since I already had a son so we're not really losing alone time by trying right away. Good luck to all you waiting ladies, it will be here before you know it!!

So I'm working days this week at the elementary and that is NOT helping this baby bug thing at all, lol. The kids are so darn cute it does nothing but make me want one even more.
I actually forgot to refill my birth control this month and missed like five days (and no, this wasn't on purpose! lol)... so I guess I'm off it this month. DH and I talked about stopping it and just letting whatever happens, happen, but... I don't know, he still isn't aboard the baby train yet.

Oh you poor thing... it does make it harder when you're around little ones doesn't it!
My hubby isn't really on board yet either - but he has the idea that if it happens it's meant to be.

That's exactly how I feel. Whether it's next week or two years from now... it will happen when it's supposed to. I just wish my hubby felt the same way! haha He's coming around though.

I have it too. Real bad.
And I know we won't be able to even start trying until over a year, maybe two. We aren't getting married until next year, and he's still going to be in school for almost 3 years. So who knows when we'll be able to somewhat afford a child.
It doesn't help when one of your friends recently announced she is pregnant. And everywhere you look there's something about babies and such. But I just try to remind myself it's for the best. We'll be buying a house in a few months, and still get to enjoy life without a baby for awhile.

I have a feeling the same thing is going to happen with me. I have a little now, though I know it'd be better to finish school first. I think once we're married, I'll have it even more since it's more common to get pregnant then. My mom has been buggin' me about it since I started dating FH, haha. We were at a family reunion, and her cousin was holding her grandson, and my mom looked at me and said, "I want one of those!" She is funny.
