Should we have a baby before owning a house?

I am 27 years old and my husband is 31. we have been married for almost 4 years and together about 8. my husband makes good money and works very hard owning a family business and i am in the medical field i make decent salary but he is the breadwinner. over all we have a great life wonderful families and a good marriage .. we have had some ups and downs but mostly a few years ago when i was younger .. now our only stress is that we rent an apartment and we both really want to own a home. weve been putting off having kids to try and get the finances and house thing set up. but now i am starting to feel like time is just going by. we have discussed starting to try for a baby and if i get pregant still try for the house but if by the end of the pregnancy we still cant get one we would move to a two bedroom apt. ( we are now in a one Br) . its just hard on us because we have a lot of pressure from our families and on our selves to own a home. i am afriad if we have a baby first then we will never own one but at the same time my mother and my best friend (who is also married and with two childen) told me there is never a "perfect time" and sometimes you need to make things happen and let everything fall into place. thats how i feel now. like im waiting for things to happen and its been the same thing the past few years. also just to note that i have always been ahead of my years. very mature for my age since i was a teenager. i have lived on my own got engaged at 21 and since then have been catering big family holidays have had my dog for 5 years and my also run my husbands business with him so i almost feel like i should have had kids by now. i cant wait for birthday parites halloween costumes dance recitals soccer games wtih the kids! lol so my ques is ... should i continue to wait or start trying for a bayba lol ?
