r u crazy??
Why would you want to have a baby so young?
Do you like to sleep late? Forget it.
Do you like to go out? Forget it.
Do you like to spend money on yourself? Forget it.
Do you like to go on trips on the spur of the moment? Forget it.
Do you like to sleep through the night? Forget it.
When you have a child, your whole world changes. You have to put them ahead of EVERYTHING else. And, they are expensive. Clothes, toys, food, daycare, school supplies...
I am a mom, and I love them SO MUCH, but. . .
Wait until you're older. Enjoy your youth, you'll never be young again. Go to school, travel, save money to buy a house...
Put YOU first for a while. Then, when you have kids, you will be the best you possible.
Blessed be,
Gypsy

Well, you are still very young. There are more things to be excited about at this age, college, getting a degree in something that you like, traveling, meeting new people everyday. There are just a lot of things that a girl your age will like to do, but once having a baby your life will change completely. You think you might be ready, but i would somehow understand if you had a loving boyfriend who loved you very much, but you say that you don't have one. You should wait, you just seem desperate to have a kid, don't worry i'm pretty sure you will, but when the right guy and time comes. Live your life to the fullest right now, go out, have fun with friends. Trust me there are many girls your age that have kids and somehow regret having them that young. You should try talking to some of these young mothers and ask them for advice, but anyways whatever you decide to do i just wish you the best!

sweety,.. your still a baby yourself... enjoy your life... I love my boys but they take absolutly all of your time. You say you have a good job, you will not enjoy it much after the baby... you will either always be worrying about the baby because you have to be at work or you will gert fired becsuse you take too much time off to be with the baby.
Raising kids on your own (without a spouse) is possible buy not easy.... no one to share feedings with (try to go to work on 3 hours sleep every nght) and this is the easy part... what happens when they wont stop crying for 6 hours straight and nothing you do helps them, thay cant talk to tell you that they got gas.
There is a lot more to raising kids than sitting there feeding them, playing with them and making them laugh, buying and dressing them in fancy clothes... all of this is fun and part of it but there is a lot of woerk involved....
Find a good husband, be married for a few years than have lots of babies.
And you say "baby girl" what if it is a boy???
Another suggestion... be a big sister, or go to hospitals and sit and hold the sick babies who do not have a mom or the mom has to work to pay the bill that is being created.
Good luck
I say get a fish and next year try a dog. :)

You should wait until you are at least 21 and married. I say this because then there are still things you can not do as an adult.
Good luck
