DH's mom said she had a dream she was making us a baby blanket and a friend of hers called and asked if we were pregnant since she had a dream I was PG. This past Thursday my best girlfriend and I were shopping and Jami picked out a sweater for me. In the dressing room I checked the tag for the size and found out it was maternity.
I've heard in the last week 4 people tell me, "I had a dream you were pregnant." No, I'm NOT pregnant nor plan to be in the next year! Yes, I've gained 10 lbs since we got married but not b/c I'm PG, just because I enjoy food. We've only been married for 4 months. Shouldn't I have at least another 8 months before people starting bugging me about being PG!
Re: Am I not suppose to have a year?!
This is how I feel! I already have a child, 3 if you count our dogs too. Seriously though, we started getting pressure even before we were married.

On our wedding day... SIL gave me a card. Inside the card was a pair of Texas Tech baby socks and a little note... "Congrats on the wedding. I want to be an Aunt. No pressure."
LOL...
This really wasn't an issue for us since we made our plan known upfront. Due to our ages, we knew that we were trying right away. No one said anything to us because 1.) we were pretty clear about our intentions prior to getting married and 2.) it would have been very inappropriate for people to start asking us since if we weren't making an announcement, it meant we were having issues and asking us about it would have been hurtful.
I think if your plan is to wait a year, be upfront with people and tell them that you want at least a year to just enjoy being married. Personally, DH & I would have LOVED to have had a year to ourselves prior to TTC, but we simply didn't have the time.
