My husband and I had trouble conceiving...so we had several years to plan our childrens life. Now we have three ages 8,6 and 3 and let me tell you.....life is out of control. You can't really plan life...you just have to put it in Gods hands. Good Luck if you are planning on trying!!

I always kept a journal I called it "When I am a parent". I started in my early 20's. I would write down any ideas,opinions,facts, tips & tricks I thought would come in handy when I was a parent. I have a 3.5 year old now (I am 25)...I think it is never too early to plan for a child, especially if you know you want children someday. You can't possibly learn all you need to know in 9 months... A good thing to write out are the Big issues, like talking to your future children about sex & drugs & morals. You need to be sure you practice what you preach, even if that wasn't always the case! And be firm in them!

Just since men and women are comfortable in a courting and plan to stick in combination, nonetheless doesn't suggest that marriage is for them. Some men and women simply do not just like the suggestion of marriage, or do not consider that marriage is critical in a significant courting. They might consider that marriage is only a rite and a work of paper mentioning that the couple is husband and spouse, however that it does not cross past that, and for that reason there is not any motive to move via the lengthy, tedious and steeply-priced procedure of making plans and going via with a marriage ceremony. Personally, I will probably be getting married earlier than youngsters. However, I see not anything flawed with any one who does matters another way. It's simply the best way I'd desire it.

Yes we planned ahead for everything for our first son. From feeding him and Dr.'s all they way to how we would discipline him. my husband and I constantly are planning ahead for him. So far we have agreed on all issues. Which makes things alot easier and so far it has worked out great our son is only 2 1/2 now. So check back in in about 5 years and I'll give you the update.

I'm not sure about anyone who was so thorough, but i've heard plenty of people say "my kids will never do that, i'm going to raise them right" and yet hmmm now some have kids and guess what they talk back and do stuff too. All the planning in the world cannot prepare you for a child.

Me and i husband planned ahead and it is working out nicely. Our son is happy and when he needs to talk he knows to come to us. We knew and talked about it ahead of time what kind of parents we were going to be before we had our son.
