Wise ones of MN, I am asking for your pearls of wisdom! Just for some background, DH and I have been married over 2 years. I am 26 and DH is 31. We own our own home and are a few years into our careers. We both want children but I feel like we’re just waiting, but for what I don’t know exactly? I’d definitely like to see a bit more of the world like India and Japan etc although we’ve been to a lot of places already. But I don’t know if this is a good enough reason to wait a few years longer? Aside from that there’s not much else I feel I need to do apart from maybe learn to drive. I think I’m finished with education as I got my degree and don’t intend to do a masters etc. DH is happy to start whenever but says it would be ideal if we had his car paid off which will be done in less than two years time, at which point DH would already be 33 and I’m conscious he’s a few years older than I am. I’m also conscious that I’m so close to my grandparents in their 70s and I would really love for them to meet our children. Am I overthinking it? Is there a day where you wake up and think “we’re ready” ? What would you do? Is it better to just start early? Thank you!
