Have you and your DF agreed on when (if ever) to start trying for a baby after the wedding?
In my ideal world, we would start trying right away. I''ve had baby fever for years as it is and with my irregular cycles, my doctor has said might take a long time (or it might not, but I''d rather play it safe. I know it sounds weird, but my gut tells me it will probably take awhile). I mentioned this in passing to DF last night, because some friends of ours are going to start trying right away after their wedding. He is... not on board with the idea. He was a little freaked out.
I think part of it is that we''re extremely busy as it is: both working FT, he''s doing side jobs, I''m taking classes PT, trying to plan the wedding. Truly, we couldn''t handle a baby right now. But things will calm down a lot in the summer and by our wedding next fall, should be pretty normal and stable. I just don''t know if it''s too much, too quickly for him to consider or if he''ll still feel this way by the time we get married.
