Is a baby what i need?

my friend and I are like sisters we go everywhere together, we like the same things even our families are close.but the last few months I've been feeling empty and bored with life until recently my friend had a baby and shes beautiful.I've been spending...

a lot of time with them and I feel like that emptyness has gone when im with the baby. im a responsible 15yr old and I think im ready for a baby. im in a stable relationship and weve been 2gether 2 years. do you think its what I need?

Hey!

Well im am a 15 year old. I have younger siblings and i love them so much but then i've been staying home and watching then since they was born but then i never had time to hang wit frends. Well i think that yooh should finish up sku nd have a good time in high sku. Yooh have ur whole life to get a baby i jus dont think its a right time to

I hope i haved helped yooh out.

Well as a responsible 15 year old, your first responsibility should be to complete your education.
Then establish yourself in a good job.
Then make sure you are settled in a steady relationship.
Get married.
THEN have children.
There are way too many children having children today.
You should be part of the solution, not part of the statistics.

Having a child of your OWN is a realy BIG Responibility. Your child will require alot of seeing to, atention, love, care, food, shelter and money to provide some of the additional material such as, dipers, milk, clothes...etc

Spending time with some others child is totally different. One because your not there with the child 24/7, two becasue your not there 24/7 you dont get to see the additional responsibilitie that come which you need to be able to act on to give a child the right upbringing. Three, your only young your self and it's good that your in a stable relationship but in the long run what if it doesn't work out? then you'll probably be left on your own with a load of responibilities to take on.

Your still young, have fun and enjoy yourself while you can.

Well depends on how oldyou are? When you have a child you give up everything fun in life til kids are able to stay home alone or grown up... Mostly til they are grown up. When I had my kids I took them every where til one time they could not get in.. Sometimes you just can't find a sitter when you need one.. I would wait til you settle down and take the time to raise one. Do not rush in to it. Live life to the fullest and enjoy life while you can... I am a mom of a 20 yr old and 17 yr old. Kids are a lot of work. Babies you get less sleep.. Lots of work kids are. So take your time.

I think that you should wight until you get married have a house and save money and have a job. I think what you need is a friend. Taking care of a baby on your own is really really hard. but helping someone out with theres is always cool and you can enjoy there baby and still say in school and have a baby with the man of you dreams!

your WAY to young.
defnitly not ready.
i would say wait until ur 22 or 23, then would be a better time otherwise people are going to think ur a slut.

STOP! you're 15 sweety...you act like you're 18 or older. The generation has changed for young girls to get kids at that age, LOL! I am 19 close to 20 and feel like I am young for a relationship and let alone a baby that's going to take away my freedom. If you really want one take care of the baby go visit your friend often or be a baby sitter. Until then focus on your education. A relationship/marriage/baby will come at the right time and right age. You're suppose to be having fun not responsibilities of a human being. It's a major responsibility it's not a NANO, Giga Pet...where you remove the batteries and it stays OFF. The baby has feelings obviously. So, think clearly for a couple of months. Get a piece of paper and write down the pro's con's of a having a baby ( like for example for your pro you write: a piece of you. For Con: No freedom to do whatever I want when I want to )

I think you should do what you want to. It's your life.. if your sick of living it to the fullest and being able to go with your friends and do things then go for it. You should talk to ur partner about it though. See how much he is commited to you. I'm in a relationship right now we've been dating for about a year and we want to have one well more like he does and I wanna live life. I think u should live life to the fullest and enjoy being without big responsibilites. Maybe you'll find somethign else that makes you feel happy. Shouldn't your boyf make you feel bright and full instead of empty?

Yes! Have a baby! If it makes u happy with a baby around, then go ahead! and, anyway, if ur a virgin, then let me tell u, s*x feels good! good luck, mother-to-be!

I Think You Should Wait Because You Know What They SayDon't Fix Anything Unless It's Broken Stick With What aaliyah Said Cuz Its The Truth.

Minnie, don't encourage someone who's very young.. and yes it may feel good but sometimes it brings responsibility along with it.. you two are both kids enjoy your young years.. don't worry you will get older and once you do you will wish you were still young..

you might like kids and enjoy hanging out w/ them, but you are too young, no matter how responsible you think you are. wait tioll your older. you gotta think about the baby and how the baby would grow up not just about what YOU want!

She's right ^ the environment is a big issue. Plus, who the baby will be around where. How it will be raised...like the person ^ above said it's not all about you...

You might think you're responsible, but if you are considering having a baby at 15, I assure you that you are not. Before even trying for a baby you should:

-Finish college
-Have your own place
-Take prenatal vitamins
-See an ob-gyn often
-Know about fertility and reproductive anatomy
-Know about prenatal and child development
-Have some money in the bank
-Have a job that will offer maternity leave or a partner who can handle the bills while you're out of work
-Have health care for you and the baby

I highly doubt you have accomplished that at your age. Having a baby before you can give it everything it needs would just be irresponsible and selfish.

She's right ^ ..it's not a giga pet/ nano...

You want to know why you feel that emptiness?
It's because you feel lonely, and unwanted.
You feel like you want to be wanted.
Having that child around, they will depend on you, and need you,
and maybe even love you. That's what you want.
but what you don't realize, is that that is the most SELFISH,
reason for a baby that a mother to be could make.
You want a baby because it is convient for you and because
having that baby around will make you feel 'better'.
Do you realize how many YOU's there are in that sentence?
Do you realize that you are a 15 year old girl, with so much
potential, and that you are going to throw YOUR LIFE and
YOUR BABY'S life away by doing this?
What type of future will you give that child?
That child is not going to be all you, that child will have a mind
of it's own, a will of it's own, and yes, for the first 5 or 6 years, they
need you and depend on you. But later on, when they realize your
mistake and realize that they couldn;t live up to thier full potential
all because of your selfish desires, who is going to feel loved then?
What happens if she is 14 and wants to have a child with an
older man? Are you going to stop her, or if she is in your shoes and
she wants a child at such a young age!
Are you going to let her do that? Would you not want her to wait and grow up so that she can provide her future children with the BEST. So they can have music lessons, and
sports nights, and school dances and preschool! They can have someone DRIVE
them there and pick them up on a regular basis, someone to meet their teacher
and tell them what they do for a living?
You are in no condition to raise a child if you think that having a baby will
solve your problems. You are being selfish and
simply absurd. That child will grow up on a rocky ledge, and never know the things
that children who grow up in mature, well balanced homes do. And you can
gove your future children the BEST if you wait, and educate yourself, make yourself
stable finacially, find yourself a promising job, and a home that is in a place that will give a child good morals. Children don't have children, dear.
And no matter what you think, at 15 years old, you are a child.
No matter how tough your life has been, no matter what experiences you have had, life you've seen, death you have seen, you are a child and having another baby will
not solve your problems of emptyness and melancholy feeling.
Finding CONTENT in yourself, is where it starts.
Because you need to feel complete and whole as a mother, so that you can give EVERYTHING to your child. When you have a baby it isn't about YOU. It has to be about them, everything must be about them.
And the reasoning you use now proves that you cannot
handle that of of yet.

Wait, your children in the future will thank you.
Thank you for waiting to give them a promising and stable future,
and a home where they could grow up to be promising people.

You need to focus on education and building a future for your
children to be. Not simply having them so early that everything is incomplete andbroken, because they will not thank you for it.

If the question even comes to your mind is a baby what I need
thats probley the first sign that you aren't ready.
When the time comes, you'll know.
Good luck.

to ''llewellyn'' to answer your question

I have 4 months left of skool
I know all about fertility and reproductive anatomy-I took a course with my auntie as she is a midwife
and I have a large sum in my bank account-
if you think im selfish and iresponsible go ahead but I know baby will complete me and my boyfriend just got a promotion so got a raise and I managed to get a fairly well paid job. so im not that irresponsible.
my auntie felt the same way whens he was my age and decided to wait like you have all said. when she turned 21 she found out she couldnt have kids.

do you still have the same oppinion?

The other people may not (though they probably do) but I KNOW my opinion hasn't changed..

Have a baby at 15, you're NOT responsible
Keep being a responsible 15 year old and DON'T have a baby.

Well I think its totaly young to have a baby at 15 tbh because you havent left school not a job its a lot of responsble when your older your going to want to go clubbing everythink not allwayz people will be able to baby sit your'll be missing out fun you really want a baby more near to yours 20 because you would have more of a life of fun clubing out with a friend having a baby is a BiiG responce ,
