I just turned 23. I have been married for over a year, and have been with my husband for almost 5 years. We have excellent jobs and OWN a 3 bedroom house, this is our only debt.
I have a college education and we have traveled a lot. In the past 6 months I have really wanted to start a family, I cry sometimes because I KNOW I am ready. I feel like it’s a part of my life that’s missing. I look at baby stuff in the store and feel sick, a friend got pregnant by her new boyfriend and I was so upset it was hard to be happy for her.
My husband said he was ready too and we have decided to wait until next August (when the mortgage is paid off) before we start trying to conceive. We could have one now, but we agreed on next year, so how can I get over my baby fever for another year? Its super bad. I know I am young, but honestly, I have done so much already I feel a lot older than 23, I am ready to start a family soon.
