[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Apparently the best place to find a spouse is in grad school, so I'd encourage that. DH and I met young, so we could choose the time table for all of our major events (versus friends who married at 35 and had to get pregnant asap). We got married at 25, first baby at 30. [/quote] First baby at 22 to 25 is better than first baby at 30. I don't get why OP recommended two college-educated married 20-somethings with access to upwards of 6 months paid maternity/paternity leave and great health insurance wait five years to have kids. You get married to have kids. Waiting five years is pointless. Your body bounces back when you have kids in your early or mid 20s. You have exponentially more energy. You're the cool young attractive parents throughout their schooling and extracurriculars. You won't need IVF. Moms can work from home now. Married men with children get faster promotions.[/quote]
