if you want a baby go ahead if not sit down and talk to her. there is no right or wrong answer for you. i'm not gonna tell you to not do it because i also want a baby and i am 16 and a sophmore in highschool. but make sure you think about it.

like nikkipooh said, it's really up to you. It will be your child too. but keep in mind that contrary to popular belief, money isn't the biggest obstacle for a new parent, it's time.

There are many things that need to be considered before having a child. Such as daycare. Who will be watching the kid while you (and/or your gf) are in school / work? Are you going to have the energy to take care of a child anytime your not at school/work? Can you get proper medical attention for the baby and your gf? I'm not saying it will, but what if you guys break up? among lots of other questions.

The best thing to do would be to sit down with her and have a calm talk about it all. Find out WHY she wants to have a baby so bad and how she feels about your choices about having one. Things change quickly at this point in your life which is what makes having kids so difficult.

If there's one piece of advise you'll take from me, let it be this. When you guys come to an agreement on what to do. WAIT. No matter what you decide, wait like a month or so and see if you still feel the same way. Child raising doesn't stop at 18 either.

well what do you want? i'm 13 and I want a baby. I asked my boyfriend and we decided we were going to wait until you age to concieve. it's up to you. and take my advice, so many people say that teenpregnancy is so hard but there are so many more oppurtunitites and programs today that it makes a baby easier. it's till your decison.

ok im 16 and im a sophmore this year. me and my bf had sex and now i might be pregnant. he got upset and when i trid to ask he shut me out. eventually i got it out of him.......it wasnt that he doesnt want a baby, its that he's worried about my health.

maybe you should just sit down and talk to her. tell her how you feel on all of this and then ask her t tell you how she feels. a baby in your future might not be the best thing. im 15 and my bf is 18 and we dont know if we are ready or not. infact my mom is gnna kick me out after i have the baby. but HIS mom said she would take us in until we could get on our own feet.

all im saying is maybe you two should talk about all of the difficulties and all of the precautions that come with child rearing. you guys should look online together and dicide what to do and how to do it. there are lots of ways to help prevent miscarraige. just talk to her about it and dicide together what to do. because i want a baby but my bf isnt gonna be able to go to the college he wants next year if i am pregnant. so you have to think of every possibility nad then dicide how you both feel.
