Q: My Girlfriend Wanted to Have Babies

Me and my girlfriend are both 18, soon we're getting engaged.
She really wanted to have babies and I showed her a bunch of stuff.. Including from this forum, stuff young moms said.. Told her we're not ready yet bla bla.... She understands now.
But she's feeling really bad now about how "irresponsible and stupid" she was being, and also I think that deep down she still kinda wants to have babies, but knows it's impossible.
I can't seem to make her feel better.. I just don't know what to do.
I want to have kids with her someday, already told her that, but that doesn't make her feel better. She keeps saying she's sorry for being so selfish and crazy and feeling really down... What should I do?

I know this isn't exactly the place to be asking this, I just want to make her feel better..

Tell her that when the time is right for both of you that you will have children together. Your still young and have a lot of time do have children but for now you both should work on what you want in your lives.. Talk to eachother about future expectations and when and where children work into it. But make sure you tell her that she doesnt have to blame her self for wanting children now. But that when the time is right the 2 of you will
good luck!
