why do i ask? because i never wanted them!
until i became 35! before i never thougth about it, not when i was a kid, not during my other relationships!
but then came that one moment we talked about it (my husband and me)he already has a son, so he let me choose what i want.
the feeling was right(but i did not have the so called "motherfeelings") so we throw away the pil and went for it! we did'n tell anyone because i was already 35 and didn't want to go to the doctor for any test! after 5 months i was pregnant, we found it out on newyearsday in Thailand!
the reaction of al our friends? a realy big surprise!
my parents? the biggest shock of their lifes, but they where so happy! and we did it the same way when we tried to get another baby! shock number two!
so when was the time you thougt: yes i want to have (a)kid(s)?

That's wonderful!! You are very lucky to have become pregnant when you were planning to have another kid:) I've been married for a year now and am only 25. My hubby turned 30 recently and we both have agreed that we'll plan for a kid soon,maybe sometime towards the end of this year or next year. But things can change and having a baby is as important to me as working or building my career. I want to spend some more time with my hubby before I commit to making a family. I also want to work and contribute to our savings before we have a kid.

When I was 15 I started having very storng feelings about being a parent. i knew from then I wanted 2 kids. I met my future husband when I was 16. he too wanted 2 kids. at 18 I went off birth control, to be sure it was out of my system. It took us about 6 months beofre I got pregnant, and only close friends knew wew were trying. My son was born when I was 20 years old. I can't believe how well my parents took it.
his parents were mad! lol. anyways baby is 15 months now,
and were trying for baby #2. I want the kids to be as close together as possible, but getting pregnant is taking just as long or longer then/as last time.
