I want a baby!

It is great and normal for 13 years old to be thinking of babies, but to know of course that you are not ready for one. It is ok to consider to start baby sitting, learning to care for children.

This isn't weird, it's perfectly normal. Many girls feel their maternal instinct and longing kick in when they hit puberty. But to act on this at such a young age, that's not okay, or normal.

I'm sure your dream was very vivid. Who's the father of this baby you dreamt about? Don't know. No one does. Not even you. You'll likely meet someone when you're a lot older, fall in love, get married, and then have children with him. But there's really no way to know his name at this point in time.

If you love babies and want to be around them, then why not start babysitting? You can have all the perks of caring for a child without actually having to pay for a child. In fact, they'll pay you.

I'm 13&I had a dream of me being a mother..It was amazing does it mean anything?

Means nothing....and don't think that anything you can dream on the subject is anywhere near reality. At this age you need to understand reality is rarely ever what you imagine.

Fact is its incredibly difficult...and more work they you can possibly immagine. And you never get a vacation or a break to rest....not until they are old enough to move out and completely support themseves....usually thats over 20+ years.

And its more expensive than you can imagine. As I imagine you know...kids rarely are perfect, and often are not the best behaved. That make the job of parent even harder than it is otherwise.

Means your hormones are doing over time..
Clearly being a mother at such a young age would be rather shortsighted, not only illegal.

Hi, so me, and my ex boyfriend were together for a while. We broke up, and now are close friends. When I see him, I don't see that I love him anymore, but when we have a nice conversation. I miss him, and feel something deep for him...only thing is...me and my friend Jack have been flirting back and forth...I feel something for Jack when I see him, and talk to him..!

I feel like a bit of a slag when I think of it. Help?

Love Rosie

Xoxo

You are single and free, so stop the guilt, and enjoy the friendship with the ex, and date the new guy. If one or the other squawks, tell them you can do as you please.

You are only 13, but how old are they? No doubt your raging hormones, normal at 13, have you attracted to the fellows.talk to your mom about these feelings and dreams, she can help explain them, and guide you in handling them. LOL, she probably went thru the same thing when she was your age.

Talk to her, she will cry because her baby is growing up!
