Pressure to have kids?

Is anyone else constantly having their family ask them when they’re planning to have kids? We aren’t even married yet!

Is anyone else constantly having their family ask them when they’re planning to have kids? We aren’t even married yet! My mom and my future mother in law make comments about it constantly and I’m getting tired of repeating myself. It’s annoying now. I’m only 24 and my fiancé is 31. We both want to be married for a few years, travel and start building our dream home before getting pregnant. Anyone else having this same issue?

    We have been together for 6 years and engaged only a few months and the questions about kids has been a constant since we started dating, I'm currently 28 and he is 34. We have always believed in doing things our way and at our own pace. We moved out of state and are currently looking to get our first home and expand our business, not to mention attempting to wedding plan, and yet the questions still come at us. My health is something that throws a curveball at the whole kid thing, thankfully most of my family has made their peace with our lack of kids. Yet his family mainly his mom/aunts and dad keep asking even though we have said countless times we are not ready and its not a right time for us. I'm starting to not care about being nice about responding anymore, because it falls on deaf ears. In truth I would love a baby but its not the time and may not be so for at least 4 years.
