Ask yourself if you would like your child to be preganant at the age of 21?

you are never too young to have a baby, 21 is ok but.....
...if you have a baby so young, you wont get to live out the things you want in life. People between the age of 20-30 finally realise alot in life, travel the world, do crazy things, if you settle for a baby now, you will miss so much in life. You will have to dedicate pretty much the rest of your life to family and commitments. You cant just put a baby away when you want some freedom.

That's actually a personal choice that you will have to make. I can tell that you can never be fully prepared for children, it will never really just be the 'right time' and when it is it maybe to late.
Also the older that you do get the lower percentages are that you can conceive. Like with me for example, I am 25 and it will be easier for you to conceive then it would for me. I don't know why life had to do that to us ladies.
Some things to consider are do you have a feasable way to take care of child, some sort of money income, will your partner be helping in this? If you are trying to get preggers you should try and take prenatal vitamins right away, some books say three months before you even get pregnant.
It's a lot to think about so maybe read some pregnancy books and give it some long thought, good luck!

It entirely depends on your circumstance. I know a lot of people who have had babies younger than 21 and have been just fine but it is a lot to do with your financial security, your own maturity and your state of mind. It is the biggest thing you can ever do in life so it is worth waiting until you are entirely ready, as there is no going back. I've always thought you should live your own life for as long as you can first to gain world experience and get more 'out of your system' - I think in your 30s is, in general, a good age to start having kids.

Nio, if you are fully prepared fro the responsiblilities, emotionally, physically, and financially. Do yourself a favor, be sure that this child has a devoted mother and father. It is so sad to see young women trying to make ends meet without help both financially, and emotionally. It is such a struggle for both the mother and the child.
Believe me, I had one that took off after 3 1/2 years together, when I became pregnant.

There is no too young for a baby. Your 21. If you have a steady job, are emotionally and mentally stable, you will just know when you are ready. If you have any doubts in your mind about whether or not your ready, then you are not ready and should wait until you no longer have doubts about it!

age has nothing to do with it. it all depends on how you are as a person. if you like partying and a having a carefree life then i would say you arnt ready for a baby. but if you dont mind having to stay in everynite and getting up everynite and having someone depend on you 24/7 then you are ready for a baby.. its a big responsibility and probably the biggest life altering thing you will go through in life so makesure its what you want before you get pregnant.
