I would say don't have a baby unless it's with your forever man the man y ok u want to marry and wants to marry you and I would say finish what you need to then have a baby that's always going to be there the opinion to have a baby I am 28 had my first at 16 wish I would have waited til I was done college and out of school to have a baby but we live and learn

Please wait. Please please please. Live your life. You're not even old enough to legally drink just yet. Please enjoy a few more years. Yes babies are blessings. They are so wonderful. But it's so so so hard. Being a mother is the hardest thing i have ever done.. I'm in a wonderful relationship with a man who busts his ass day in and day out and we still struggle. Babies are expensive. Also, don't just have sex with someone because you want a baby. What about how he feels?

When I was a 17 I wanted a baby so badly. I was with a guy for a little over a year and it happened. But the thing is not everything goes as planned hun. You don't simply just get pregnant and have all roses and sunshine. Take my story for instance. I got pregnant. I was 17. My boyfriend turned into an abusive drug addict. And the day that I found out my baby was a precious baby girl, I also found out that she only had half of a heart and was going to have a very difficult life ahead of her. The guy that I thought was going to be there left us as he pleased and when he was around it was pure hell! So there I was now 18, alone, struggling to care for my beautiful sick babygirl all by myself! I had to watch her fight and struggle to survive through 4 open heart surgeries and countless other surgeries for all of her other health problems all while having to argue and fight with some peice of shit guy begging him to just be there for my sick baby girl. Bc SHE deserved to at least have a mother and father while she struggled to survive! She was on a feeding tube till she was 2 years old and in and out of the hospital her whole life. Her dad ended up leaving us for good when she was 2 years old! So it was just me and her for her last 3 years of her life. I am so blessed that I got to have her and be her mommy! And I would never in a million years take it back! But my baby girl deserved so much better!!! I say last 3 years bc she sadly passed away when she was 5 years old due to complications during a procedure. My point is you never know what your going to get girl. You don't simply just pick a guy and say I want a baby. It's something you really need to talk about and plan. Make sure it's someone who is going to help you and support you. You could possibly have a beautiful healthy baby but there is still that chance. Then what?

I was 19 when I found out I was pregnant with my son. I had been with his father for about a year! We are now married and trying for our second. I don't want to glorify young pregnancy, but I was also at a time in my life where I knew I was going to marry his father, I was working full time, and we had two amazing families/support systems. There are a lot of financial things that come with a baby; hospital bills for you and baby, insurance for baby, and paying for all the necessities they need! A baby is a blessing no matter what, just make sure you are prepared in every aspect and know that the father is ready and will be there for you in every step of the way!

I’m 20 and honestly the only thing I’ve wanted in life since I was 12 maybe even younger is to have a baby. It’s literally what I think the most about even with considering the good and the harder times and I’ve been with my fiancé for 4 years but I know we aren’t exactly ready yet so what helps me wait is I made a ‘before baby’ list (like buy a home, have $5000 in savings, my jeep paid off). I listed the things I want different in my life and it has helped me so much. Your list can be simpler of course depending on your life but honestly it really made me realize that my life at the moment isn’t what I want for my child. Even if the only thing on your list is to wait until you’re in a relationship that’s a great start. I grew up with a dad who didn’t care to be in my life and it’s a really hard thing. Maybe just give it some time and see if it can lead to a relationship with this guy. Waiting has really paid off because I will have those things on my list completed at the beginning of next year and it will be such a much more amazing experience then if I had a baby a year or more ago. You can message me anytime if you want to talk more about it!

I'm 18 and pregnant but I can say I wish I waited I mean she wasn't planned but I love her to death but I've been with her father for 2 years and a few months already and we moved in about almost a year ago but we had no plans on a baby it happen our methods of control didn't work I recommend thinking about ur self see how it goes with this guy and give it time if it sprouts to a beautiful relationship good just not rn for a baby honestly take it from a teen mom

Sounds like to me you don't know what you're talking about and clearly not ready. You have no idea what us moms go through single mom or not. Yes it's the best feeling in the world having a little one but you need to wait a few more years until you're with someone stable. & financially ready. You do want your child to have a father right and not someone who's in and out his/her life?

I agree 1000000000000% with everything @blessed2018w9 said. A loving stable relationship should come before having a baby.

I feel like your rushing something that the poor dude knows nothing about.. I'm sure he does wanna date you but having a baby with you? I very much doubt that right now.. Definitely don't try trapping this guy that away cause that's not right either. Having a baby takes a loving relationship that takes awhile to work on. And it takes two to wanna try not just 1.you ha e the rest of your life to have a child right now focus on you and when you find that Mr right then you both can talk about children.. Hope I'm not sounding mean not my intentions but it takes a lot to raise a little one and having someone that wants a child just as bad as you do at the same time is a wonderful experience.
