Q&A: Are we ready to have a baby? My husband (of 2 years) and I are ready! We are waiting a few months to TTC while we finish up grad school. We are 32 yo, and have been together for 8 years.

Actually, we have been trying for the ast 3 years with no luck...but we have not given up hope yet. You can never be FULLY ready for everything that a child brings to your life. But I see everyone, friends and family all around me that are having kids and I am ready to experience the joys of motherhood. Q&A: Are we ready to have a baby? Never ever thought that I would get pregnant but did and now I am 12 weeks pregnant and alone and very scared and very nervous....I was told by 2 specialist that I would never be able to have a baby.....I have ALWAYS wanted a baby but never thought that I would do this alone!!!!! I want to enjoy everything but being alone and scared is very hard
