Re: Good time to start having kids?
I had my 1st at 20 and 2nd at 21. Thing is my boyfriend is now 32 so he probly wouldent have wanted them when i would have like to have them at around 25-30ish because he would be 40ish lol (not that there is anything wrong with that) but he wouldent have wanted them that late.
I would say this tho. Would you be finantualy ok if you couldent work the whole pregnancey. I was so sick i could hardly get out of bed so my boyfriend pays for everything, now im getting parenting payment but he still pays for most things.
Also having a child wont take away the pain of loosing a child, but it may help i guess. My mum LOVES my girls even my boyfriends parents love them but never get to see them (they are in new zealand) My mum has a photo of my 1 year old and she says that when she is getting stressed she looks at it and it makes her feel better and all warm inside.
Also make sure you know who you are and what you like because a child seems to take away your identity hehe its no longer just you, its you and your child, and sometimes people just see the child lol.
Good luck :)
