From what I have seen, children change everything and not everyone's marriage is ready for them so soon. I've been married for 3 years now and my husband and I are just now talking about starting a family. Marriage is a lot of work and I really value these 3 years that my husband and I have spent just stabilizing it and growing together.

Thanks soror but we're not receiving pressure so much as we both recognize that we aren't exactly spring chickens (early 40's and mid 30s) and we knew straight-away after getting married that starting a family soon was a priority. We lived together for almost 2 years before we got married and though marriage does change the nature of any relationship, I think we have a pretty good handle on how difficult it can be sometimes (Lord knows I do). I just want my space back so I can freely roam
so we can start our tribe.
