OMG this post has turned so funny.  I'm so sad I just found it.  Pregnancy was my answer to shaving.  All the stretch marks made most of my PH fall out. LOL  My husband and I waited 5 years after we were married to have kids and it was a good choice for us.  I was 25 when my daughter was born and 28 with my son.  We had time to get to know each other and get to know ourselves.  I know it's kind of old fashioned but wait until your ready to make a commitment to each other before you commit to having a child.  You're children will not be children forever and when they are grown your partner will still be your partner (Unless you are looking at this relationship as temporary which opens a whole new can of worms).  Get to know him inside and out.  You are not wasting time not having children until your older,Your making the time when you have them more rich.  You say your ready for kids now.  What is going to change about that in the next few years except you'll be more ready.  You have time.

I was seriously in tears. I sat there, put a little folded up blanket on the floor and made him sit there till he was picked up. I also tried to get him to come to the neighbors to borrow a plunger and he screamed and screamed. Even when he was sitting on the floor, he would be kicking his sister and being a pain. Not only was he not disciplined at home, but he wasn't played with and got no attention. At 3 years old, he couldnt tell me how old he was, he didnt know any colors, no numbers, he didnt know what grass was or leaves, he would even say "its going to rain" everyday even when there wasnt a cloud in sight!

Id laugh if it wasnt me but I was ready to leave him outside for the whole day. People tend to look down on people disciplining kids that arent theirs.

I get paid that an hour for cleaning someone elses house!  And it dont talk back! lol

I think what everyone is trying to say, that as rewarding and enjoyable as it can be at times to have children, they are not toys. They are not dolls. We owe them more than a passing thought when trying to conveive.  And the older they get, the worse it can be too, just different issues is all.
