I am asking myself these very same questions, Anamoly. I am 27 and married but no kids. My husband and I have been talking about it and it seems like we enjoy our life the way it is and don't want to screw anything up between us if we fundamentally change our world to accomadate a child. Of course all my friends who have children always say it's worth it, but my reply is always don't they HAVE to say that?? I mean, too late now, the brat is here! I think as you get older your priorites must shift and having a child sounds more like a good idea. So I am waiting until I feel that shift before I have one. But the pressure is there, not only from my parents but also from myself. I don't want to be bitter about it later when it's too late. Who takes care of you when you're old if you don't have children?
Sorry for rambling...
