Should We Try Or Not?

To get pregnant? Or to not get pregnant?
That is the question. :p
ive been thinking and lately I want a baby
of my own. I see all kinds of babies and
I want to be pregnant and raise a little
one. But then I start thinking and ill be
broke if I do. How will I have money for
the time off of work? Who will babysit?
Id have to pay my sister or a nanny. All
the baby things are expensive. Oh no
scratch that, I have everything! From the
tub to the crib to the clothes from my
sis. Which ill give her 300 for
everything. Because she'll just give it
to me. Then I want to breast feed, so ill
need to pump forever. Then I can never go
out like on my dates or go out to eat or
sleep in...Ever. But then I want a baby
to raise and be closer to jose with. And
show everone my little bundle of joy! I
want a baby shower and baby things. I
want an ultra sound and I want my baby to
say mommy and papi. I dont know, im
stuck!!! I like how I am right now with
neices, but I want my own too!!!
Any suggestions on what I should do?!
Jose is 26 and he doesnt want to be 30 by
the time we have a baby either. He wants
to be a "young dad" me and jose are
already having sex with no condom or patch
so im thinking before its too late, should
I or not? I trust your opinions because I
really only talk to you. I talk to you
more that anyone I know!! Lol. So please
let me know!

Lol, thanks jen. But I cant apply for
wic, or medi-cal, or anything like that
because I make too much money. I would
get denied and they would probably laugh
at me for even trying! I have my own
medical plan but adding a baby might raise
my cost on it. Thanks though. My
financial and sleeping side says "no!,
wait a while" but my heart says I want a
baby to give my neices a cousin. And I
really want a boy! I need a grandkid so
my mom can watch it for me while shes
still young! Lol I only make about
$1400-1500 a month and with rent and
bills, I could be broke forever! And gas
is expensive out here! Then I dont have
patience for crying. It stresses me and I
just go get ice cream! Lol, but no, I
want a baby. I think I will! Thanks jen!

I agree with her. I think you can do
anything you are determined to do and in
my opinion, you seem to already be a
prefect mother to your nieces! I say go
for it sweetie!

Nikki,
if having a baby is what you and jose
want, then I hope you have it! Girl, how
exciting!! I'm getting married in 7
months and my fiance and I sooooooo want
kids. But we decided we won't plan on
having a baby for a few years so we can
get used to married life and try to get
financially stable (ha). Still both of us
would be overjoyed if we were to get a
surprise sooner than we planned. All you
girls talking about having babies is going
to make me itchy for one of my own! Just
kidding!
I hope nikki and everyone else on this
forum has healthy and happy babies. Best
wishes to all of you.

I'm almost 3 months. I can't wait until
my second trimester! I really want to
enjoy being pregnant but i've been so sick
that it's hard to enjoy it! Well I wish
you and jose the best of luck! Keep me
posted on what's happening. You know you
can do the temperature chart also (i'm not
sure how you do it) but i'm sure you can
find something on the web about it.
That's how my mom concieved me! It's also
cheaper than buying those ovulation
kits.
Best wishes,
angie
