Uhmm lets face the truth here, we are under so many pressures from here and there, religious says NO, Morality says NO, societal expectation says NO but think .... Can anyone stand the pressure of childlessness after Marriage. To me, if the couples had made up their minds, its far far far "advisable" to get pregnant before marriage to avert some unnecessary pressure.  I know a quite number of people that because of "what people would say" abort several times just to have the so called "flat-tummy/clean-slate" marriages but end up spending nights in vigils and so on all in the name of having a child .. so like someone had said earlier .. its different strokes .. but to me, I am a living and proud evidence of it .. hey! that's me so its individual decision.
