I'm new to this site so hopefully I can pick up all the acronyms.
I've been with my OH 8 years (childhood sweethearts), married a year, and bought our house (mortgaged) a year ago.
OH is self employed and I have worked my way up quickly in a really good job on a very comfortable salary.
On paper it all sounds so good, so I can't understand why I'm nervous.
We go through waves of broodiness- and we both definitely want kids together.
It's just how do you know when to come off the pill and start trying.
I'm only 25 and OH is 28, should we wait a few years and build up our savings and careers or just go for it and see what happens? I have finally got established in my career (with significantly older colleagues) - is it selfish to worry having a family now may jeopardise that? We also have a holiday to NYC booked in December. I'm naturally an anxious person as you can tell, I over think everything!
Any opinions welcome, I need an outside perspective.
