How old were you and your SO when you had your children?
If you don't have children, how old do you want to be when you do?

-Me and my dh had a talk tonight. We want to have 2, one when I'm 24 and the other one a year later. So, that's 5 years from now.

I was 24 when DD was born, and DH was 25. I had wanted to be 25 when I had my first kid, but I was only 3 months shy of 25 when DD was born, so that was close enough for me....

I dont have any kids and we arent sure exactly when we want kids. All we know is right now isnt the time. I'd say another 3 or 4 years maybe so I will be 25 or 26 and DH will be 22 or 23. Who knows might be sooner might be later hehe. :)

I had always said 25 and that is what DH and I were planning on until I got pregnant (while on bc). I will be either 23 or 24. EDD is 3 days before my bday

I had Emily when I was 21 and Noah when I was 26. They were both planned and we knew we wanted to have children while we were in our twenties. It worked out great, because since we are done, we will still be young enough to do what we want when they are 18. I will be 40 when Emily is 18, so it's perfect :)

I would love to have children when I am done with school in two years. But I would love to have a child anytime the lord decides to bless me with one.

I was 22 with my son & 23 with my daughter. I personally have enjoyed having them so young, I'll be 41 when my youngest is 18! Woohoo!!! Still young enough to enjoy single life with my hubby!

I had my first at 19 and my second at 21. I always wanted to be a young mum for alot of reasons...although growing up I never imagined being that young. MacKray was kind of planned. We weren't actively trying but we weren't preventing. Bradley was a big surprise.

I was 18 with my first, 20 with my second and will be 22 with our third and last baby. DH is one year older then me. Some people think we are crazy but we like being young parents.

I was 24 when I had Ericka and will be 27 when I have ds. Dh was 28 when I had Ericka and will be 31 when ds is born. I don't want to have any children in my 30's so if I have one more I have a little more than 2 years to work on it after ds is born.

DF & I use to say we wanted them while we are in our twenties. But we're loving the "just us" life so much, we're most likely going to put it off until we're even more financially secure & done traveling together.

But then again-I believe God will give us a child when He thinks we're ready :yes

if AJ decides to only do his 5 years in then i want to have kids once he is out... so i will be 23 when he gets out and he will be 25 a month after he gets out... then we can start trying... but if he stays in... we will just not try not prevent...

I was just barley 23 when my DS was born and Dh was also 23, i'm not sure when we are going to plan to have another one. DH gets out next year part of us wants to before he's out but part of us wants to wait until he is done with school in 3 years, i just don't know if i want my kids that far apart.... so i guess we will see? ;)

I always said I wanted kids very young so I could still be young when they are older but now I think I can stil wait a little bit longer. I'm turning 27 soon and dh's turning 28 next month. We both LOVE kids so if they come soon then AWESOME! :) if not that's great too.

i totally want kids now, i'm 21, and from all the posts, it seems like a lot of people had kids around that age, but my husband thinks we're too young. that no one really "plans" to have kids that young. he is so dumb sometimes! ah, but ya gotta love him...
