Have any of you spoken about kids yet?
I think we did from week two! We both wanted large famalial units (think 12 kids or so) before we met and were thrilled the other felt the same. He's often talked about what a great mum I would make, and a life together with kids in tow.
Started the baby making or adopting process?
Uh.....Nah.
Already have any?
I wish!I love you baby and if it's quite all right
I need you baby to warm the lonely nights
I love you baby, trust in me when I say
Oh pretty baby, don't bring me down I pray
Oh pretty baby, now that I've found you stay
And let me love you baby, let me love you....

Haha, what an interesting way to bring up the topic of kids! Michelle has it all planned out how she wants to have a C section and everything. We are going to have 3 kids. I want to name them "1", "3", and "2" in that order. Just to mess with them. Maybe this way the middle child won't have a middle child complex. Or, name them 2, 3, 4. And refuse to answer the question of why the first one is number 2. The real answer is because I am number one. They will just never know that. (extremely kidding on the last parts).

Yes we have! I have always wanted to have kids, and so has he. He'll be done all his training and be posted in about a year, and then we will start our family. Ideally I would like to have 3 or 4 kids.
Have you ever even thought about it?
All the time
Started the baby making or adopting process? :P
Nope. But we've practiced.
Already have any?
Nope.

Yep, we both want a slightly large family (around 6) and plan to adopt. She also wants biological kids (though we don't know how feasible that's going to be) and to foster. We also decided to have a diverse family with kids from around the world.
Have you ever even thought about it?
I've always had a dream of having twins, and now thanks to her I want redheaded babies too lol.
Started the baby making or adopting process?
Not yet, though whenever we see babies we want to start right away lol We're far too young though. And still in school. And no house. lol
For now, we've settled for obsessing over our close friend's baby, we've decided that we all share her lol.
Already have any?
No way

We started talking about having kids aaaaaaages ago : D So yeah, we would like to have 3 and we already have some names decided x) ♥
Only problem with coming up with names is that our taste seems to be kinda different x) But we've thought about.. each kid having two names, one being English, and the other Finnish :>
Have you ever even thought about it?
Yes we haveeee ♥
Started the baby making or adopting process? :P
Nah, not for few years I think (and I'd like to get married and then have kids).
Already have any?
Nope :>Last edited by elina; June 16, 2010, 12:51 PM.

We have We have very similar goals in that area. So we've decided for a few names.
Mostly because it was so much fun trying to decide names :P
And we both want biological AND adopted
Just because my SO is adopted, so we thought we wanted to honor that
Have you ever even thought about it?

Started the baby making or adopting process? :P

I swear, I've attempted to answer this thread 100 times and always get distracted!!
Have any of you spoken about kids yet?
Yes, and fairly frequently. Mostly we speak about when. Obi wanted to wait til we were 30, my answer was "absolutly not". I've always said this, because my mum had me at 30 and I had to live through her menopause in the same house and then she went and died on us. No one in my family gets to 80 years old, hell, if they get to 60 they are doing really well. So I think waiting that late to have kids isn't fair on them later in life, plus, I need to know where having kids will fit in with starting a carer. So we agreed to meet half way and aim for 25, though I want to finish having babies by then and he wants to start. :P He is also very clear that he does not want any bastard children, so I guess we're getting married at some point? But marriage is "something couples should not talk about. They should think about the issue as individuals, certainly, but if it's discussed and planned it wont be a surprise or as special". I can respect that, it makes everything a little more mysterious and fun, but it's difficult on the planning!
We've spoken about how and when I should tell him and how he should react if we somehow have a whoops-a-baby, and about how many kids we want. He wants two. No more, no less. I want two sets of two. But we've agreed to have the first batch and then just see how we go.
Have you ever even thought about it?
Yeah frequently. I wanted to already have kids by now. I didn't expect to fall in love and move to a different country with a man who likes to slow me down a little bit. I actually expected that the father of my spawn wouldn't be in the picture very long and thus I wouldn't care what he wanted/thought. But Obi's a keeper, so that's scrapped that plan.
Some days I'm dying to have children RIGHT NOW, other days I want to wait and have fun for ten years. But either way, it's not an option at the moment, being here with no health care and a crappy wage.
Started the baby making or adopting process?
We practice, that's counted right?
Already have any?
Nope, just a kitty for now.Happily married to the little Canadian boy I never thought I'd meet in person

I think I will have heard far worse, to be honest ;-) under 18 or not.
Not really - we know that we do want them... but in at LEAST 10 years. So nah, not really had in-depth discussions at all.
I'd prefer to be well out of uni and knowing what I want to do with my life before kids were in the equation :-)

Have any of you spoken about kids yet?
Yes, we have. It is definitely a sensitive topic for my SO since, recently, he confessed being really scared of me having a baby and loving it more than I love him.
Which I think it's silly and some might think, selfish of him. He's also younger than me so I'm hoping it'll pass because I do want to have, at least, one kid.
Have you ever even thought about it?
As stated above, yes, I have.
Started the baby making or adopting process? :P
Oh-ho-ho...no.
xD

Nope~

We sure have. We havent spoken about when I guess, but we'd both like 3 when we're settled together (in the same country for a start hah)
We've even thought of names (well, tried). I'll be living in Finland, and they'd have my last name. We'd give them all a middle name, so they'd have a first, middle and last name.. and we'd give one an English first name and Finnish middle name, and one a Finnish first name and an English middle name haha. Not sure about the 3rd child.. xD
Have you ever even thought about it?
See above

Not until we're in the same country for good, thanks x)

Nahhhhh

Have any of you spoken about kids yet? Yes, we both did. But not too seriously. We just talked about if we could imagine it. I have never been a huge fan of little kids, but since I'm with my SO... that might have changed. Although it still worries me how time consuming it would be. Right now I could easily imagine me getting jealous at some point, eh.
Have you ever even thought about it? Yes.
Started the baby making or adopting process? :P Now that would be a bit early.
Already have any? No.
