I think there was a time when I was 16 and wanted a baby. I'm considering myself lucky it never happened, what was I thinking? I am now 23 and still have no children. I've been married for 8 months and i'm finishing my degree up at college. I am enjoying my marriage and I will start a family once I finish school. I think you should enjoy your teenage years and set goals for yourself, that's what I did :d have a great day.

I know how you feel I was 16 when I had my first baby, and I wanted it soo bad, but believe me you want to stay young as long as you can. I would wait until you are 18 or so a baby is a lifetime commitment. Do you really want that right now, think about it for awhile, its really up to you.
P/m me and we can talk more

Honey, you don't need that responsibility. I cannot stress enough how much work a baby is. It is deffinatly everything you wrote down but it is so much more. Many of my friends in high school had children before graduation. And all but one of them dropped out. Many of the friends I have here at university party harder than the people who don't have any children, mostly those who had children before they were adults, not to mention emotionally capable of raising a child. Do the right thing and wait till your graduated from college and preferably married to some man you love and want to spend the rest of your life with. Its so hard doing it on your own. Oh, and just remember, once you have that baby, you can't rely on anydody, even those who said they would help you before you got a baby.

I'm 16 and in exactly the same situation, it's such a wierd feeling and u can't explain y u want a child, all u know is that u can do it and ur ready, every1 u tell just says it's a phase ur goin thru but u know that it's not true. ive wanted a baby since i was about 13 or 14, i'm now 16 and i still want 1! I don't have a clue want i want to do either, it feels as though im gonna have to choose between a baby and my career, sometimes, when i realise that i don't know what to do i get really upset. x

Im 16 and found out not to long ago that I was pregnant. I didn't do it purposely.What you really have to relize is that having your own baby isn't going to be the same as having a baby doll...you can't just put it away when your finished.I know babies are cute, but they are a alot of work!! I have 8 siblings all younger. Being able to understand and meet each childs needs is no easy task! They are all different and come with their own individual needs.It all comes with experience. You say your education won't be messed up but did you think about how your going to move forward after you graduate? Money is a bigger issue that "just getting by" especially with us being in a recession. Do you really want to have you and your child live paycheck to paycheck? Also, you may be suprised on your moms reaction. I knew my mom would be disappointed, but I thought she would be supportive. It was not the case. She's giving me the decesion to either live with my father and have the baby.. or stay here with her and give the baby up for adoption.
Just really think everything out..Im excited but I'd wished I would have planned everything out. I know the feeling to want to be able to hold a baby and be called "mommy" but is this really the right time in your life?

Hey hun ...
Im only 15 and i really want a baby... i have spoken to someone about it who has recently had a baby at 15 and is now 16. i asked her if she had regretted not waiting ... she said she didnt ... she said she loves her baby with all her heart and wouldnt give it up for anything. she said it can be hard at times but she knows its her responsability and she has a little child there loving her and relieing on her. She has done her GCSE's and did good ! she and her boyfriend have part time jobs and her mam and dad help her which is great. i want a baby soo much i know how to handle one aswell and i think i woukd be a great mother... the difference between me and you is ... i thort i was pregnant a few weeks ago n i told my mam and she was really really mad.. i know that she would help me but my dad would take it worse ... i dont think he could handle being a grandad at this age lol ... i think that iff you want a baby with all your heart... go after it! even if things turn out bad ... you know youl have ur baby to care and love u !

this post if four years old, she is now 20 and of age. lol

How old are you Juilia?

I am 16 and really want a baby to. I am ready to have a baby. I recently thought i was pregnant and now all i think about is having a baby and how much i really want it.

Hey Sprayberry9
Take a look at your odds of having a healthy child or not sufferring injury before you make that decision. There are some really horrible consquences you can face as a teen mother than have nothing to do with the expense of sacrifice of being a mother before you are established in life. Money tends to work itself out one way or another, you may not be able to give your child the things it deserves but push comes to shove you can keep it alive. However at 16 there are real risks that you may die in childbirth, become sterile from injury, miscary, have a child that's severely developmentally disabled. People telling you that you shouldn't have a child until your 20's isn't some kind of opression. They are really genuinely concerned your life and the health of your child.

This sounds exactly how I was at 16. I was desperate to have a baby at the time..but never did. Im 21 now and having my first born this coming december and I am so thankful that I didn't have a child at 16. As bad as you may want one, and as fustrating and mind consuming as it is.. try to wait a bit longer. Even though it doesnt seem like it, those few years from 16-20 will actually make you a whole different person

i got pregnant at 17, only a year older than you. i graduated early and had a well paying job, i wasn't with the father of my child, but had a family that is beyond supportive. Let me go ahead and tell you, your not ready for a child, i thought i was because my family was so close and my job payed well and i was already almost out of school, but it's way more than that! You have to put everything on hold when your baby is sick, you don't have time to just go out with your friends for a few hours because your usually working or cleaning or more importantly getting SLEEP!! i know i'm not one to preach to you about what you want, i'm just trying to make your fanasty reality because babys aren't all bout cute noises and fun, their work and alot of it !! BE A TEENAGEr why you can. Your living a good life without the bills and doctor app. when your child gets sick, instead you can go shopping and spend countless nights with your friends !! Take this advice and live the life you have now, injoy having your teenage qualites because you have to grow up so fast when a baby is on the way, and once their here theres no going back. I'm 19 now, my child is 2 and yes i love her more than anything in the world, but if i could go back i would have waited because i know i can't give her the things i could have if i would have gone to college and gotten a better carrer, everything is put on hold until you can manage babys,job & bills, then you can work your way back into school and hopefully provide a better outcome for your child. But really keep your adolences as long as possible, after college think about having babys that way your priorties are in check.

I am also 16 and want a baby dear. I have a well paying job, supportive family, and close to graduation. I've wanted a baby for years. I've taken my cousins in hand when in need. I know I am emotionally and physically ready. But I can't have a baby right now, because you have to consider the factors of your baby's soon-to-be life.The emotional heartbreak of not having a father figure. If you did find one, you have to eventually have that conversation of telling your child taht that man is not their father. Then there's financial. You may think you have enough money...but you need diapers, food, medicines, crib, toy, everything. Then kids grow like weeds....you need to get bigger clothes all the time, taht uses alot of money. You'll need a babysitter for when you finish school and then go straight to work to support your baby. Then you'll need more money for either preschool, daycare, or school. You'll need school supplies. You'll need money for shcool fees, field trips, extracurricular activites. You need to take ALL this into account. Wouldn't you rather be happily married with the man of your dreams? Think hard about all this. I wish you luck, from a woman in the same boat. ~Aimee Jayne.

have a baby... who cares
