Im sorry, but that is a ridiculous question! If youre here asking people if you should have a baby, then you obviously question it yourself, and you know the answer. Im not at all trying to be rude, but c'mon youre 13!!

Hun if you are only 13 I would not advise a baby!!!! I am 24 and im pregnant and still not fully prepared!!! And at 13 you have so much of your life ahead of you. You have school, boyfriend's, all your young stuff!!! Right now is the time that you should enjoy hanging out with your friend's and enjoy life. Once you have a baby you can't really do those thing's anymore!!! All of your time goes to a baby and there is no more "you" time!!! Please think with your head here and im sure some other ladies on this post when they respond to this will agree when I tell you that at 13 having a baby, espically if planned is crazy and will be so hard on you!!!

I figured I wasn't the only one who would think this is crazy!! I just don't want her to make a big mistake!! Hailee plz listen to us when we tell you that a baby is a "big" responsibility!!!! And no matter how bad you think you might want a baby, espically at 13 you are never really ready!! There are baby's planned by married couples everyday and it is still hard on them!! So try to imagine yourself at 13 with no life what so ever!! I hope these post's will have some effect on your decision!!!

i agree with all of my life... Go to school and do something else better with your life.. Like sports or something.Go skateing, or go to a movie something a 13 yr old should be doing. Man what is up with you young children these days. Man I could see if you came on here and said I am pregnant.. But to come on here and say you want a baby.... Kai help this girl please.......................

You're crazy!!! At 13, I was just beginning to wonder my own body! I wasn't into boys at that age. I mean, I was, but not sexually or not even wanted a kiss. Ew. I am 23, with a 3 year old and one due in 21 days, if you know whats best for you. Wait! I bet if you ask your mom this question, you will get the same answer!

I agree with the rest of you. Wanting a baby and having a baby is two different things, and no, you are not crazy.
Enjoy your life!
Sincerely,
sandy

13 is very young to be having a planned pregnancy, its hard enough on those girls who didnt plan to but have got pregnant. Im 21 and I think im ready to have a child but I have a job,im engaged to be married and I think all I was worried about at 13 was my friends and boys lol I say enjoy your teenage years think about kids when you get a bit older and have time to enjoy worrying about yourself.

Hun you are to young to have a baby, at your age you should be just having fun with friends you shouldn't be in such a hurry to grow up. Please wait it is a lot of responsibility and you mise well say good bye to going out with friends every day and now and days everything is going up in price. Just stay as you are and be a 13 year old there is no need to rush.

I am done with advice on this subject! If you truely thought it was right you would not have to ask anyone! If you do need to ask someone it should be your spouse or significant other! I think this is very childish!!

Is this the same person asking over and over? Anyway.. My answer is no.. A baby costs at least over 800 a month.. How much is your allowance? At 13 the only job you could get is washing dishes and that is what I do and i'm 18.. (hey.. Don't even.. I might get another job soon :p ) and it is not a good job to do when you are preggo.. Alot of bending over and you get soaked everynight and it makes your back hurt! I think you should wait until you have a career.. Yes career..Not a job. Buy one of those think if over dolls or something.. Or spend time with a teenager who is preggo and/or has a child.. You will see.
