The movie stated that the celestials existed before the big bang, and are the same ones we saw. For beings so old, Thanos delaying it by a few thousand years was probably about equal to adding a couple of seconds to a bomb's timer.

Also, like mentioned above, the aftermath of war created prosperity. That was basically Thanos' entire motive. The celestials we're probably totally fine with delaying it a few seconds to speed it up in the long run. Like a movie where they cut the wrong wire, and timer stops, then restarts even faster.
