At 13 you have a huge amount of hormones surging thru your body and I'm willing to bet that is what is causing these feelings. The good news is it sounds like you will make a great mom when you are grown up and have had the chance to enjoy your youth. The fact is however that you are far too young to get pregnant or have a child and that is that. In the meantime get some babysitting jobs or help out in a youth group.

At 13 .. you really do not want a baby. It is very hard to do alone. You will have to wake up every 2 hours to feed the baby, then change the baby, burp the baby, cry with the baby when they will not stop crying.. NO MATTER WHAT YOU DO. Then you will have to try to make time to finish school and pass. Then when you want to go over to a friends house.. you will have to bring the baby (if that friend's parents do not judge you for even having a baby at a young age and allows you to go over), or if you want to go to a movie.. who can you trust to watch the baby.. cause you parents will be to busy to help you. How will you have buy all the things a baby needs.. like a bed, diapers, food (wic only supplies formula) not the essentials. Clothes, shoes, doctor visits. There are so many things.. Please look at the whole picture.. I am 33 and pregnant and scared out of my mind.. that I will fail as a mother.. that is 20 yrs older than you. I am struggling to find everything that this little innocent baby will need. I can give him all the love in my body.. but that will not clothe him, or feed him and definitely not save him from much. I am not trying to lecture you.. just reach you is all. Wanting a child is a wonderful thing.. make me know that when you are old enough to take care of one.. you will be a excellent mother and friend to your child. Take care and stay smart.

Babysit a lot! Why don't you stay home every night and pretend that you have a baby. You can't go out with your friends on the weekends either. They will think the baby is cute and fun for about a day or two...then you are on your own. 13 is too young to have a baby , too young to even have sex!!!
It is OK for you to dream about it though, just don't act on it. Everyone dreams about growing up, getting married and having a family........ that is normal, just keep dreaming.

It's not that bad. You CAN dream and it is wonderful to love kids so much! I have heard that men's crusts develop when they see a woman naked, while women's crusts develop when they see a baby! Isn't it amazing? I am 20 and have been in the same place till today. I suggest you not to get rid off this feeling. Just enjoy it, and if you have the strenght go and take care of other children by babysitting or just by playing with them! For your own you must wait and you know that...

Oh my. Sweetie I am 28 and its some times darn immpossible to take care of your children. Remain a child as long as you can because when you HAVE to be an adult there is no going back. If you don't want to think about having children right now, fill your time with activities with friends, volunteer at food kitchens or your local church, do something to fill your time. Hopefully if you don't have time to constantly sit and think about baby the feeling will just fade away. and again if it dosen't, start a babysitting business. That will get rid of that baby jones for sure.
good luck

Baby sit someone's children and make sure you have them for all day, also make sure someone is close by in case you need help. I did this up until I was 18 everytime I thought I might want one and let me tell you no matter how good the children are you still realize you enjoy being young and independent. If that doesn't work tell your mom and she might be able to take you to places where young women had babies and show you how hard it really is.
Good luck

That's good you will be a good mother, remember 13 is too young. Maybe you can talk to you parents about them having anther baby. Or adopting one. Just don't ever have sex and have a baby. I made that mistake in high school and I had to put him up for adoption!

Can you babysit for someone? Enjoy your youth because your still a child yourself and once you have a baby you have to always be the grown up.
