Should i really be thinking about having a baby right now?

Question

I really loves kids a lot, and i really want one. But i dont know if right now is a good time. I'm almost 21, and im in a stable relationship. I'm in school. and waiting to get through all of that. I'm kinda thinking its not a good time, and i can have a baby later when everything is together. But i dont know. Give me some advice.

Answer 1

sounds like you dont think your ready. take your own advice, if you have any doubts, wait awhile. once you have one there is no turning back.

Answer 2

Wait! Trust me...Babies are wonderful, but they are  totally life changing and all consuming. Take some time to live your life. Finish school, get married, travel and be selfish. Cause once you have a baby its all about them.  

Answer 3

If your in school DON'T do it. You have your whole life ahead of you and don't s***w it up now. if your in school and working or just in school it isn't fair to your child. They need a lot of attention. Don't listen to that 15 year old girl who is on her second child. she says shes still in school but look she CANT even spell just wait tell your done with school.

Answer 4

You already know the answer... you sound like you know you should wait till you have finished school, but you really want a baby so bad you are hoping enough people will say, "Sure, go ahead!" and then you can convince yourself that now's the time. Yes you can have a baby now, but going through school while pregnant is difficult, and then try studying with a newborn (you won't be getting much sleep either). So just do what's ultimately best for your future baby and what you know in your heart is best for you right now and wait. Good luck.  

Answer 5

well if you have the financial capabilities of raising a child then go for it.

Answer 6

well I'm not much younger then you but...i have a little brother and although I'm not his mom i know how hard it can be to raise a child getting homework done is so hard and most likely impossible having kids at such a young age may not help achieve youre future goald good luck i wish you the best!!!!

Answer 7

if you feel its not a good time it prbably isnt

i would finish school first (i unfortunatly didnt ) then you have something to fall back on when your children are older

Answer 8

i'm only 15 and i'm about to have my secon kid...[[[well sortaa...im 6 months]] and when I kew it was the right time I just knew it. so, i still go to school and I stil have time for myself. you judt need to sit down and figure out how you are going to have a baby if you had one. and talk it over wth your "hubby" firstt. those are the bestthings todo.
