TTC? Maybe

Question

I just got off BC mainly because of an extreme hormone imbalance. My SO knows this, we've talked about getting pregnant before but not in detail. Anyways long story short, he's still cumming in me even though we both know I'm not on BC. Does this mean he's ready to have a baby with me? I've been wanting a baby for the last year but didn't know if we were ready or not. My period is currently 22 days late and I've taken 6 pregnancy tests and all came up negative. Should I be worried? I'm hoping it's just a side effect of coming off BC and the hormones being out of whack. HELP

Answer

Okay first of all what is your definition of you two "being ready"? I personally believe that being ready is not only as a couple but financially and mentally as well. Do you have your OWN home? None of that " I live with a family member and they are helping me BS" Do you own a car of your own with reliable transportation for doctors appointments and whatnot? Steady jobs and incomes? Having a child is extremely expensive and minimum wage is not going to cut it without having to struggle and that will not be fun. Are you mentally stable? Having a baby will change your body, is he okay with you gaining weight and having stretch marks? Are YOU okay with it? Postpartum depression is a real thing and if you are unhappy with yourself currently you will be very upset when you notice your body changing and becoming larger to hold you baby. This is in no way trying to be rude or hurtful!! I just want you to be fully aware of all off these factors that becoming a parent has! No more staying out late partying and drinking with your friends and doing whatever you want. You will have a full time job as a parent 24/7 365! Just make sure you have all of this figured out before you become a mommy because if not things will be tough, it may take a toll on your relationship and on your health. Now, I personally don't think you are pregnant! If you are stressed it could make your period late! Also, having a hormonal imbalance could throw your period out of whack too. Again, I'm not trying to discourage you or be hurtful in any way I am just trying to give you some helpful information! 😊 Best of luck to you and I hope everything works out!

Answer

Make sure you straight up ask him "Do you want a baby right now?" You both have to be sure. Having a baby is nothing to play around with. You may end up pregnant and he may leave you because he really wasn't ready. Guys just like the feeling of cumming inside. They may not think that much of it. Be responsible and talk to him. You don't want to end up being a single mother because you didn't communicate. I can't stress this enough. I know a few people that went through something similar.
