Well said, my dear friend! You deserve to live life the way you choose to, and have babies when you wish to.
In Indian culture, there is a similar pressure on both men and women to have children. Any childless girl over 30 is frowned upon and questioned like nobody's business. Unfortunate but true.
It is ironic that most of my friends who have babies (I have none) say that having a baby was the best experience of their lives, and yet they complain about the changes in their life due to the baby all the time.
Hopefully, people can realize that they should worry about their own life, than judging others' lives. One's choices are personal, including the decision/timing of having a baby.
