You both work NOW. Many employers are uncomfortable having a woman in the workplace that may domino at any moment. Who will take care of baby after the birth? Be certain of your financial stability before choosing to have a child.

why do women take the trouble to get a career and then throw it all away to have a baby. you dont need a baby keep working and have lots of money instead

You're still young, why not wait til you are 25? Something to think about ... Do you own a home already? Once a baby is onboard you will have lots more extra expenses and buying a home with one less income is difficult.

Thanks for the comments. I don't think that I'd be throwing away my career at all. I'd take leave and then take it from there in terms of getting caregivers, etc. I enjoy learning and working, but I also want to start a family. Also, I don't want a house, so we're fine where we are now. We live in a city. Houses aren't the norm at all. So, I don't know ... I guess I just have to delve deep within me and figure out what would be best for that unborn child ...

its 2 early , if u have a baby soon u get tired of life faster! go have fun on Vacation or soemthing.

to tell you the truth.. I have a son about 10 months now.. It's ok for you to take vacation when you giving birth and after birth to take care of the baby... but the best thing is to find a place first...settle down...I lived with my bro in law.. it seem not working out because the baby crying and stuff...and now i move to apartment..the place is small...not enough place to put baby stuff, toys, bed for him. I really wish that i have a house first then have baby. But depend on what you want though... I have kid, happy, but want to have my own house...when you have first kid....then when turn to 1 years old you will want another one.. because to me...it's easy for me to take care them at the same time and not wait for him get older then have another one..don't want to start all over again...hope you understand what i am saying...

don't do it, we have enough people on earth, your adding to habitat destruction, global warming and pollution by having a child, if you think about it

i think u shud do wot u and ur husband feels best. ur still young u mite wont to do stuff tht u av neva dun b4 like travel around the wrld b4 u settle dwn.

I think you should discuss this with your husband. I think that would be the first step to having a family of your own. And Moi(588), how is she too young to have a baby? It's better than being 16 in high shcool. Well anyways good luck! =]

Wait 5 more years.

Get a puppy!
