I will be 19 years old in 3 weeks and I've been obsessed with getting pregnant. I've been wanting a baby since I was 16. Sometimes I look at my stomach and pretend I'm pregnant. I put myself in some fantasy world. I'm just wondering if this has happened to any other person and how I can deal with this. I don't want to go out with someone just to get pregnant. I would never trick someone into getting pregnant. I know I'm still young and I should just wait till it comes along and I am. I just want advice on how I can deal with it until the right time comes for me.

Kitschxbang, just a piece of advice, when you reply to postings, make sure that you check the dates. the original posting was made back in January and the last posting in march.

Which is just fine, but it doesn't neccessarily mean she won't read it. If I see something I relate to, I reply. I check responses to things I posted ages ago. Doesn't have to be a dead thread. It's not like I've wasted my time posting it (you read it). Thanks tho

I am going through the same thing Im 20 years old and me and my boyfriend have baan trying to concieve. Eiveryday I look in the mirror at my stomach. And everytime I have a pain in I stomach, it makes me wonder if I am. I work at a daycare and soemtimes it makes me not want to have kids. Thats my suggestion to you. hope it helps

I feel the exact same way. (I searched this topic on google) I've wanted to get pregnant for the past 5-8 months. It drives me crazy. Some of my friends have been getting pregnant, and I cry everytime. It's crazy, I collect baby clothes, I think about baby names all the time, I babysit for 5+ different families on a daily basis, I've taken everything into consideration. I can support a child. I have a boyfriend (fiance) We're getting married in August. So I am going to wait until I am married to have children. But I understand what you are going through. There isn't really a for-sure way to get over it. I've given up on getting over it. I just deal, and know that someday, not today, but someday I will have children, so it's ok. I guess the best thing I can do is quote the Bible in saying "Patience is a virture", and I guess that's all

OMG.... it's so good to have someone else who has this problem. I'm 16 and currently going through the same thing!

im 18 and my son just turned a month old. it is hard and there are so many sleepless nights, sometimes i just have to cry, especially when i cant get him to stop crying. i wouldnt trade him for anything in the world, but it IS a huge responsibility... and i have to say im truly blessed to have my mom help me with so much, quite frankly if it wasnt for her id be out of luck, but im not telling you to take advantage of your parents, cause there isnt any guarantees that they'd be 100% supportive

and the whole feeling at the age of 16, i had it too... and well look where i am now

yeah.... i'm trying to hold off and be practical about it. Knowing that I can't support a kid at 16 given the fact that my parents probably wouldn't support me. So I'm just filling my time with babysitting and being around other peoples kids.
