katie, I think baby fever is very common at your age. List all the realistic reasons why you want a baby. For love? For cuddles? Then list all the reasons against having a baby. Money? Time? Etc. If you are really and truly honest with yourself, you will have your answer.

Babies Early
Honey, go to school or get some training from somewhere. Think of all that god wants for you first. The world is your oyster and men don't mature until... Only god knows!!! The babies can wait because once they are here that's it. Everything revolves around their needs.

Get a puppy.

There's nothing wrong with having a baby at our age, .Katie.
I'm also 19. I'll be 20 in .October, &.I'm 12wks pregnant.
Don't get me wrong- .I'm not saying go for it,
but it isn't something that you should go for on impulse.
If you honestly think you want one, think about it long &hard.
Do you have a good job? Does your boyfriend have a good job?
Are you planning on going (or currently going) to school?
Do you feel like you &your boyfriend are reading for this?
It would change your relationship completely.
Are both of you mature enough to raise a child?
There's lots to think about!
Even if you plan &plan &plan, though..
There is no way to be ready for a baby.

Good luck, hun!

Okay thank you so much for your input. I am definitely going to think about it the reality of it instead of just my wants. Thank you

Honestly, I never had a baby craving at that age. I never had a baby craving heck until I was about 27!

Maybe 'baby cravings' have something to do with how long you have been in a relationship and how serious the relationship is. I know I didn't want children when I first met my now husband but after we'd been together about 3 years the broodiness really kicked in!
