No offense taken! My goal was to have two children by the time I was 30 and I did! I could not imagine having one now at 37. Your energy level is so much less. People are doing it though and I say more power to them! We dated 9 years before we got married. Then we waited about 3 years after we married to start a family. You sound very excited to become a mommy and that is so wonderful. You will make a good one I'm sure! P.S. Getting married didn't change my relationship with my husband either. Having kids did though Not necessarily in a bad way. Just different. Your life becomes all about your kids when you have children. The husband gets kinda put on the back burner and vise versa. Again it's not a bad thing, it's just life changing!
