You're not crazy. Serial killers are crazy. You're not planning on killing anybody are you? Because if you are, let me give you some sound advice. Start with the elderly. They're slow.

I think everything requires experience. Wanting to get pregnant? Not crazy. However, you have no experience in a ralationship. So, I'd advise you have a relationship before getting pregnant, you know? If you start a relationship already with a baby, it'll make things more complicated, and as you have no experience with that, hard to deal with. I wouldn't advise also, being a single mother. It's too hard and a baby deserves both parents, right? Honey, you are only 18. You have sooooo much time ahead of you. Wait a couple more years and some more experience. And you'll become a great mature mother!

YES!!! Is it crazy to want kids someday, no, not at all. But to want to have them now, well then yes, it's crazy! Never, never, never settle down with your first boyfriend. You'll always wonder in the back of your head what else there is out there. And by having a kid w/ someone you are settling down. No more dating around. Many men won't date a woman with kids (at least men your age). Many nights/dates will be canceled because you have to deal with the kid. Your body will never be the same. You will be stuck w/ the man who impregnated you for the rest of your life. And you can't have a string of boyfriends coming in and out of your house, it's not healthy for the kids.
Please, for your sake and the sake of any baby you may have, put getting pregnant on your "to do list" and mark it for "someday", preferably after college and/or after marriage.

No, you're not crazy to want to get pregnant. It is our natural instinct to reproduce.That is one of the reasons why sex feels so good! There is a strong desire in women to have children, whether they realize it or not.
You're a smart girl, and you'll make the right decisions. You're too young to have kids just yet, and you probably know that. Just have fun, and be safe. I wouldn't recommend having children until you are mentally and financially able to carry such a burden. This probably won't happen until you are AT LEAST 25.

No, you are not crazy. The question is whether it's the right time for you. Are you planning to go to college and/or have a career? Or do you just want to get married and be a mom and wife. There is nothing wrong with just wanting to be a mom and wife, but remember that the mom part is something you can't go back from. I would recommend waiting a few years to give yourself a chance to experience life.

yes, that could be a very difficult situation for you. It will be better if you meet someone and get married and then wait till you are married to have sex and have children. It sounds crazy but you will have so much more enjoyment that way and save yourself so much grief.
when I was growing up there was a neighbor that took care of us often and their daughter just went and got pregnant and all - it's been a lot of pain for them. I wouldn't want that hardship on you right now. I don't know everything ok?

Totally! no husband to support you and the child you want,no income that is enough to support you and the child, loss of an income while you have the child, loss of freedom because of the new responsibility you would have,possible loss of your figure, the thought of being stretched to an impossible diameter,the pain, the large increase in responsibility of taking care of another person for a minimum of 18 years, then if they grow up with the same ideas you have a year later you will have another child to raise, because your first will want to have a baby with no husband, no income enough to support the child ETC, Etc. Etc.

of course not, lots of ppl havent had relationships,yet they still wanted to be pregnant. It could be that you really like kids or its a different way of having a relationship with your kid, but for that you have to choose the right person and not just get pregnant from anyone out there. There are a lot of guys who ARE pigs and want you for physical contact only, BUT that does not apply to everyone, so just enjoy being single, if you dont want to be single, look around or maybe ask a friend of yours to hook you up with someone that they think its good for you!! :) good luck with that, and ohh you are not crazy.

You're not crazy to WANT to do it - but don't. At 18 you still have a lot of growing up to do. Your life will change in ways you can't even imagine! I had my first son at 18, and I now realize I was way too young.
Please, for your own life and the life of your potential child, wait until you're at least 23.
