[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m 35. We’ve been married for 10 years - met freshman year of college and have been together since then. We recently purchased a SFH in Bethesda, and we have some savings that we’re rebuilding after the home purchase.. We both finally feel established in our careers after some struggles during the recession.[/quote] If you don't feel ready at 35 with a SFH and have been with your partner for over 15 years then you will never feel truly ready. I met DH at 19 and were married for 5 years before having our first at 27. I did not have any feeling of "readiness" or some strong urge to have children at that specific time - but we knew we wanted children and we had finished up our schooling and were moving forward in our careers (big law for me, finance for him). We just welcomed our second child (older one is 3 now). Some people just don't ever get that "ready" feeling! If you know you want kids, don't delay any longer.[/quote]
