Answer 2

I had a child when I was 20 and happily married. Mind you this was almost twenty years ago, things were a bit different. Anyway my boy died of SIDS. For years I felt the way you do, wanting another child, wanting to be a mother again. Now I am the single mom of a wonderful little 3 yr old girl, and as much as I adore her, parenting is VERY hard, and requires that you always put your child first. so enjoy being young, go out have fun. Youth is such a precious thing. Stop obsessing and enjoy yourself. You have plenty of time.
If you feel you need to give love to a child, there are ways you can do it by volunteering. It will also give you practical experience.

Answer 3

its probably motherly love, or your missing somthing. most young women that are unmarried want a baby because they know for a fact they'll be needed, istead of a boyfriend that dosnt NEED them but WANTS them. they know that no matter what the baby is going to love them. Hence the mother has an exact purpose in life, and may i add..dont wait to long to have one. i know school can get in the way, a baby needs someone to play with, but a toddler needs someone to carry them and someone to run around with. so if your too old and you cant stand to have a 30 pound kid on you hip most of the time and cant run around for longer than 1/2 an hour then that child inst going to as much fun and enjoyment as they would if you wer say 25 or 30.

Answer 4

I was the same way when I was your age. I think everyone has a biological clock that causes this. I gave in to mine and had my baby at age 21. I now have 2 daughters, but I'm having to finish college that I started after high school.

Answer 5

it could just be natural instincts. because way back when most people didnt live beyond 25 when we were just beinging to be "homoerectus man" and then it became 45. its just that we are at the hieght of health, we arent going through menopause, or puberty, we're right in the middle. thats my theory and i'm stickin' to it. (i'm the same way, i would love to have a child even though i'm young) i wish you the best of luck on your future and hope you lead a happy life and oneday do become a mother and enjoy every moment of it.

Answer 6

sounds more like you are looking to love and be loved, which happens with a child. You need to just take a deep breath and keep telling yourself now is not the right time for you. You might even try babysitting a little, for the company, and the reassurance that you want to wait. :)

Answer 7

it could be that with your busy schedule, you're feeling lonely and want to be loved. a childs love is like no other.
or, you might just feel left out cuz everybody else around you has kids.

Answer 8

maybe this is a way of finding out exactly want you want to do with ur life,,,go to school to be childcare provider,,,, or needing one and not being able to afford one.
