Answer

As someone who has one month of college left after baby was born, I would wait until baby would be born after graduating. It's not like it's not possible, but anyone who has had a baby in school would be lying if they said they got to spend just as much time with their little ones while juggling that, it's hard to put aside caring for your little one to do school work. I was so happy I only had a month left and had actually got ahead so I only had two assignments left.

Answer

maybe soon because if you think by the time you get pregnant, give birth and the baby starts walking and being active it will have been close to to years. your nephews will be way older by then. just my humble opinion

Answer

Girl I’m 20 with a 11 month old trying to balance school and work. Mom passed it’s just me . Her father is no help....if you’re going to have help then go ahead but just cuz u want your kids to have cousins around same age that’s not enough reasoning. Finish school. That way you’ll have more time with your baby and won’t be cramming last few words onto your research paper while trying to put your baby to sleep. It gets frustrating.

Answer

No right time, but I do think it would be a lot easier if you waited until you finished college. I’m currently pregnant in college it’s not hard for me because I’ve had a very easy pregnancy (8 weeks left, knock on wood) but I definitely feel I got lucky in that sense. When my son arrives I’ll have 1 more year left in college and I too will be finishing up my degree online. There’s a lot you have to look into and think about like it you’re going to go full time, if you’re going to work, if you plan on being a stay at home mom. It’ll be a lot of balance but take some time to really weigh the situation and make the decision you think is best.

Answer

There will never be a “right time.” It will always be overwhelming and scary. If you feel you’re ready to be a mother, go for it! I am 21 and 29 weeks.

Answer

You're financially secure.
You're in a committed relationship.
His job will support you and baby as you finish your degree.
You want a baby.
Have a baby. 
PS being pregnant younger is phenomenal. You recover faster and more completely than you would if you were older and baby is less likely to have genetic/DNA based diseases.

Answer

There never a "perfect" time to start having babies. If you are happy and he's on board why not now? Or if you want to wait til after school then do so...

Answer

I would wait until you finish your degree and any training that you might need to do for your dream job. Like if you need to do a paid placement kind of thing or any extra exams. You have to remember that as soon as you start trying then you're possibly going to get pregnant. So you may get bad nausea/ vomiting, pregnancy complications etc. within the first few weeks. Hopefully not! But just that you have to be sensible. Pregnancy isn't smooth-sailing for everyone. There will be lots of body changes, mood changes and even changes in your relationship which can impact your studies. You're still pretty young so if you can wait a bit until you're ready for anything then I would wait.

Answer

I’m having baby fever too 🙈 but wait just let yourself enjoy the good times with your husband later on you’ll regret not having enough time to travel and going out there’s no rush !

Answer

Everyone is different. Someone else's "right time" might not match with yours. Talk to your husband about it. If you feel like you're ready financially and mentally then do what feels right. Everyone told us that we needed to wait and be married a couple of years before even trying. That's not what we wanted. I'm happy we didn't listen. We've been married for a year and a half, have had 2 miscarriages, and are now expecting our rainbow in July. No ones timing is perfect. You just have to do what feels right. Good luck, love ❤
