I want a baby, but I'm not sure if it's the right time. What should I do?? I need advice?

i became pregnant while in nursing school and unfortunately i could not continue once the baby was born. like you, i am a smart girl and was always very concerned with my education. i've had to put my career on hold to be a mother. it's definitely possible to have a child and go to school but that's only if u have the proper support system (family and friends wiling to babysit and help out) you also have to be financially stable. so before u go deciding you should evaluate these things in your life. you must als think of yourself, when a child is born you life will be completely turned upside down i a way you could NEVER imagine. you will have a child who is completely dependent upon you for eveything. the child will become your first second and third priority. you will endure sleepless nights for the first couple of weeks, as the child becomes older it will become harder to study and focus on ur school work. oonce the child learns to walk its almost impossible to get him or her to sit still making it VERY hard to study and so on. eventhough you feel you are mature for your age and you say you are not into partying, let's face it, you are not 21 yet and therefore have not experienced true night life. i became a mother at the age of 20 and like you i am not a party person but after i turned 21 i wanted to go out every once in awhile and most of the time i have been unable to because essentially i am a mother before anything else. i could go on and on here but im sure you get the point. finally i'd like to add that it's importnt to talk to your husband about this and maybe together you could form a plan for when to become pregnant that you are both comfortable with. don't rush into being a mother it's an even bigger step than becoming married, you have your whole life and marriage ahead of you. best of luck and feel free to contact my email to further discuss!!
