Did you plan your child or was he/she a surprise?

My daughter was defiantly a planned pregnancy. My husband and I were both ready for kids so we planned for one. My daughter is my only child and she's just perfect.

Ours was planned, but ended up being a surprise. We didn't think my wife was pregnant but decided to have her take a pregnancy test anyway only to see two lines.

My daughter was not planned out exactly. My (then) boyfriend and I had been talking about having a baby for awhile, and we were waiting a few months until we were going to start for a baby. I finished my last pack of birth control pills in April, so We made the decision for me to stop taking my pills, and we would just let nature take its course. We weren't actively trying, in the sense that we were charting ovulation or anything. And we definitely thought it was going to take at least a few months, but I ended up getting pregnant in May, the first time ovulating after stopping the pill. So she was a bit of a surprise, just because she came sooner than we would have thought, but she wasn't a total surprise because we had decided to stop taking the pill in the hopes of eventually becoming pregnant.

My son was a surprise, but I have always known that I wanted to have a baby. He is my world

We planned for our son. We knew even before we got married that we wanted to have kids right away. I still remember on our honeymoon, we were walking around Disney World and I looked at my hubby and told him I wanted to have a baby. Well, five months later we found out I was pregnant! :)
