ASK HIM! If you can not communicate with your husband about this I don't think you are ready for a child~Only my opinion.

You want a baby already at 18? First I'd ask myself, am i really ready? Can I support a baby? Can I provide everything for my baby? If something is wrong with my baby could I give up my time and money to help them?
After I make sure everything I ask myself is a postive yes. Then I'd go to your husband about the baby. Bring up the topic, but be prepared for anything your husband may say. From an excited yes, to an unsure maybe, or a horrified no. Then get the reasons why. I'm sure he's thought about it too.
There is no need for rush. Make sure you really want a baby right now.

this is from my point of view ask him first because it takes two people to tango. But alot of people says you are too young. I don't think so people has babies at a younger age than that. But if you think of it like how I do sometimes kids keeps your life alot better, but it all depends on how much you are going to scafrice for. They cost alot and when you have them there is no turning back. THey the a blessing though.

why dont' you talk with him about the matter? There are alot of things to look at when you want a baby..
.place to live
.money to support the baby
.good support system in place from family/husband
.maybe a change of life-style (healthier)
...ect..
I mean your only 18, don't you want to live life for awhile before having to raise another person??

Go to college. Get yourself a career. Then have a baby. Unless your husband is rich, and since you're 18 I'm assuming no, then I'd highly suggest waiting. I was a father at 21, and while I love my kids and don't regret it, there's a lot of living I missed out on--waiting would have been a good thing. You have your whole life to have kids--wait until you're REALLY ready.

Not to burst your bubble: But you most likely aren't ready for a baby unless you are well-matured for your age.
Biologically, at 18, females are in their prime (or close to) for fertility and birth. This means that females WANT to have babies, but their situations may not allow it.
Eighteen in this society is probably too young to raise a child and be able to look after it.
Having a baby requires the most responsibility of all things, so at 18, you must make damn sure you're ready.
(I'm 18 too and I think I want a child too, but I know I couldn't possibly take care of it now!)

Ask him. Besides dont let anyone tell you that you can or cannot do this regardless of your age. They dont know you. I say as long as you are mature enough, have your finances in line, and this baby is going to brought in to a loving family then Idont think age has anything to do with this. Just ask him... see what he thinks. Goodluck

Talk to him about it. Most people discuss these kind of things before they get married like how many, when to start, and other things. Just talk to him about it, if you feel like you are really ready then come up with a list of reasons why you should.

Well this just shows the immaturity of some people getting married these days.Why do folks wonder why there is such a high divorce rate when one of the most basic questions when considering marriage hasn't been asked.What are you going to do if he says no,go and find someone that will say yes?

No he doesn't. Either should you. Wait till you are 23 years old. That gives you 2 solid years of time after turning 21 to have fun and get rowdy. Then settle down with the kids and stuff.
