Me and my boyfriend want a baby?

Question

I'm 16 and he is 18 and we feel we are both ready for a baby we are financially fit and physically. I've recently had 'implanon' removed can this affect my fertility even though it has been taken out?

Answer 1

He wants one or you talked him into wanting one. Do you have any idea what becomming a parent involves? What if he finds another girl friend are you ready to raise your baby alone. Do you feel as if you are capable of working and raising a baby and if you are financially fit how long do you think that money will last?
TAKE A LOOK AT THE NAMES OF THE PEOPLE WHO ANSWERED YOUR QUESTION AND START TO WONDER WHY "GUYS" ARE TELLING YOU NOT TO HAVE A BABY YET!

Answer 2

Your not even old enough to get married! Have you even thought about who's insurance will this child be on or will you look to the state to support you? It costs money to have a baby.
At 16, everyone thinks they're independent enough to make "life" decisions, but if your boyfriend truly loves you he'll be around after you finish your education and will marry you first.
If a guy cannot commit to marrying you, you really shouldn't be having children with them in the first place.
Your not doing yourself any favors by deciding on having a child at 16. Where are your parents? Do they know you are contemplating raising a child?
Remember children grow up to become a part of society.
The fact that you are thinking of having a child at the age of 16 just goes to show you are not ready to have a child. They aren't cute little toys. Being a parent is hard work, not all fun and games! If anyone says otherwise, they must not be going their job too well!
Just look at what your thinking of doing at 16!! Can you imagine your "baby" in 16 years coming and saying what you are saying? Crazy!
You don't know what "real" life is all about! Be responsible and use your best judgement and don't have children at your age!
Education isn't the "most" important thing in life, but making sure you are educated enough to get a job that pays enough to support you and this childonce your "boyfriend" decides he's bored and leaves you with children ,so you don't end up on welfare like so many already! If you aren't married, he's not bound to you. Be responsible
Good luck to you and please reconsider your decision!

Answer 3

I dont know, I guess it is your choice, but I think you will both be happier in the long run if you wait. I am 19 pregnant and I still have no idea on how to raise a child, I am excited, and I am engaged, but I know I personally couldn't have dealt with it at 16. Also your body isn't done growing and there could be issues there that can cause some big problems with pregnancy. I would say really talk about it first, because its not just the next 18 years it is for the rest of your life, and you still have alot of it left to live.

I hope you will continue in school, that is so important! I wish you best of luck and I will keep you in my thoughts.

Answer 4

It has been proven that women who have babies at early age tend to have difficulty conceiving later on in life...I was your age once and that was all that I could think of was having a baby....Same boat as you...But then I had a friend that did get pregnant and things went wrong for her...SHe lost everything...Her friends, family and even her health...She had to have a hysterectmy ( surgical removal of the uterus) at 15...You maybe fit now but once you become pregnant your body and hormones become imbalanced and can cause tumors, growths and even fibrosis in your uterus...Take it a while and let your body mature more before you do anything that you may regret...I am very serious and would not want to jeopardise my own body or anyone else by saying that it was ok...Wait a while or talk to someone who knows about these things proffessionally...Planned Parenthood or your gynogologist that gave you the birth control can tell you more about what changes will happen in your body as well as what damage can be caused by early pregnancy...Just be safe and take care...If anything talk first before do it!!!You may regret your choices...Take care and be safe...

Answer 5

First of all wait until you are at least 25 yrs old to have a baby. What is your rush? what do your parents have to say about this? Are you both millionaires or something? If you were my daughter I would have a good long talk with this boy and It would be intense. You are to young and he should wait until you are old enough to make a rational decision about something this important. you are talking about bringing another human being into this world and raising and supporting this child for many years to come, have you thought about that? I could go on for a week writing about how wrong this is but I do not have the time or the patients to do so.

Answer 6

Its a sin to have sex before your married.
I would wait until your married. I'd also be seen my a doctor, and maybe go to someone for more advice to see if you are ready. Its tough work to take care of a baby. You need food, diapers, the cost of the hospital, toys...what if you have twins or triplets? EVERYTHING! will double up.

As I said before....I WOULD WAIT UNTIL MARRIED.
And also i'd wait because what if you guys decide not to get married? You'd find a new boyfriend, then your child will wonder where her real daddy is.

Also....My mom works for NILMDTS and she had a 16 year old girl who had a baby. And she wasn't old enough to have one yet and the baby had died and 20 weeks. So there is a 50-50 chance your baby would live to. She works with parents who have lost babys and takes the photography.

Answer 7

Your grammar in the question says you are not ready. Your skeleton is not even done hardening yet, your hips may not be wide enough for a regular birth. If you really love each other stay in school and wait until you are at least 20. Your hormones want the baby now but once it is not a sweet smelling little bundle of joy, a rampaging 2year old how will you feel?

Answer 8

I think you should wait. How long have you all been together? It's not that I think you are too young or that you're not mature enough but how do you know that you two will last. People change after children have it's a lot of responsibility. To answer your question I don't think the implant once removed will affect fertility.

Answer 9

What makes you think for one second that you're "ready" for a baby? You're 16 so that means you live at home with your parents. You haven't even finished high school yet!! So you think you can handle going to school for 8 hours a day, plus working to support you and your baby, AND being home to take care of the baby...not going to happen! You know you aren't ready for a baby, you just want to have a cute little baby to show off. That's a really bad reason to have a child. You know they DO grow up...right?

Answer 10

Come on now don't be stupid. A baby at 16...imagine how your reputation will change. Do you know how much your life will change after having that baby?? No more going out, no more full nights of sleep, no more sleeping in, nothing. Everything you do will have to be towards taking care of that baby. Please don't throw away your teenage years. You will be miserable. Just go around and ask a lot of teen mothers. Wait until you have reached early adulthood (18-23). Things will be a lot easier for you then.
