Question

I can just feel it😩🙌🏾😪 it’s the love I want and I’m ready for all obstacles that come my way.As a long as I have my baby. I can really push my self and drive my self and really I’ll have something to live for❤️😪💯

Answer

I don’t think that’s a good reason to have a baby. You’re basically saying you want one to not be lonely and to make up for what you didn’t have. Babies should be an addition to what you already have, not make up for the lack of what you don’t.

Answer

You have your own insurance? Money saved up? Support? Job? Childcare? Want to see this 24/7? Lol

Answer

Hello Im 20 and had my daughter at 19. It is a wholesome heartwarming feeling and as long as youre sure you can provide for your child I most definitely am rooting for you in your ttc journey. Its hard and can be tough. I was pregnant at 17 and miscarried then again at 17 and miscarried. My rainbow baby is the thing i have been missing in my life and i would wish the joys of a child on anybody. It is difficult at times but i wouldnt trade her for the world. Good luck to you and your ttc journey. Heres a pic of my beautiful 10 month old daughter!

Answer

Like everyone else said you should want to add a baby to something beautiful  not just to not feel lonely, because in all honesty it's still pretty lonely. Dont get me wrong I love my baby to the moon and beyond, but I still get lonely when I feel my bf being distant. 
It's also a ton of money and hard work. 
A place, reliable car, good relationship, support, money and good stable job is just a few things you need.

Answer

Do you have insurance for yourself and baby? Do you have your own apartment/house? Do you have a steady job that allows you to pay all your bills yourself? Do you have at least 3 months of savings in case you were to get laid off to pay all bills while looking for another job? Do you have childcare or can you afford childcare?

Answer

I miss feeling that way 😂 now I can’t get more then 5+ hours of solid sleep, can’t pee alone, or eat without someone wanting my food 🤷‍♀️ I have a 2 year old, 9mo old, and I’m 13 weeks pregnant. and you lose so many friends when you have kids, they’re so excited to be aunts and uncles but when you have that baby they don’t want nothing to do with you.

Answer

Do what works for you BUT I would encourage you to fill your void with some other things first then in a year or 2 if you still want a baby and you’re ready, then go for it. Have you traveled outside the country? Do you have a skill you can use to make money? Are you emotionally okay? Would you not want your baby to have an involved dad? It’s your life baby girl; everyone’s path is not the same. But please be ready

Answer

hey if you want it then so be it but FIRST get your ducks in a row. Get insurance, save money, make sure you have a stable home and support. Daycares lined up? Just prepare yourself and don’t just have a baby and freak out with all the responsibilities! It is definitely a life changing experience!!!

Answer

If you have a stable job, loving relationship and have insurance. Then only you can make that decision. But dont do it unless you have all 3 because its tge baby that can suffer. Goodluck girl

Answer

I was 19 when I got pregnant I’m currently 20 but in my opinion I wouldn’t have a baby for that reason, I’m still finishing school up and my husband hasn’t even started but we have our own security we have money coming in we have a house two cars insurance health insurance so when it happened it was at perfect timing for us because everything’s in order already and id wait for that not everyone gets help and I can tel you baby isn’t here yet but it’s already a lot but I can’t tell you when it when not to have a baby but I’d really think it through and make sure you’re ready for everything that comes with it
