Before you start answering rude ---
I am NOT going to get pregnant.

I just feel like i really would love a baby girl <3
Im shy & never had a boyfriend before, i dont do drugs/smoke etc - im not going to have sex k?

Anyways..
This year in grade 9 we take home a baby doll that weighs 7lbs and is life-like and crys now & again so you have to hold a key in it for while. Its an assignment in 'life skills' class.
I cannot wait to get mine! I have to wait until like april :/
I chose from a boy/girl and i think im going to get a girl.
We usually take it for a night but i might take it for a weekend!

I love babies.
I dont have any cousins/neices/nephews/siblings under the age of 5 so...i dont have alot of experience with babies but i have held/seen a few of my mom's friends babies and fell in love.
I cant wait til i grow up & have kids.

Is this weird that im so excited to have kids (NOT now?)
Other girls in my class are like 'ugh! we have to take home that thing?'
 
no its not weird! i've always loved babies too! i'm 19 now and i reallly want one :(
atleast you know to wait to have a baby until your ready
some girls just love babies! your probably cute and girly, thats a good thing!
 
IM 14 and want a baby girl too.i Cant wait til i have one [not any time soon] Ive alwasy been very maternal and i just cant wait to have my own kid to take care of and love<33
 
You sound like you have your head screwed on for 14yrold.

A bit of advice- it's fantastic that you want kids! but seriously do all the kid stuff and career, education and travelling first!!
Find a nice man and get yourselves set up b4 the babies.

Hey!!

I think it's awesome that you love babies!


You're such a smart girl to want to wait, that you dont do drugs/smoke, and that youve never had a boyfriend and that youre shy!!

I was exactly like that (dont do drugs/smoke, never had a bf, shy :) ) up until a littler over a year ago, and I met my husband :)

You dont need to rush into anything like, getting a boyfriend, just because other people might have one, or doing drugs and having sex.

It's all the world's concept of "happiness", but in all reality, staying pure, in your heart, and sexually is perfect!

Wait until you find the truest Prince to marry, and then have your little baby!

You will be so happy and it will be SO worth the wait!!!

Good luck!!
 
theres nothing wrong if you understand the fact that you should wait which you do but i love babied too..and some of those girls could be fronting say that to show off
 
im 15 years ld (sophomore) and i feel the exact same way ....sorta i want the baby but as for the wanting to wait.... not so much
 
don't worry about it friend, I'm 14 and the same way. I've even got a mom voice that sort of comes out instinctively sometimes, its bad. but anytime a baby reaches out to me or toddles around, i feel all warm inside, i think we just have uncanny amounts of estrogen or weird hormones or something.
 
As long as you dont want to get pregnant right now, then no I dont think so. There are some people who absolutley love kids. Your just one of them.
I bet you'll make a great mom later in life. (after college?)
 
It's totally normal. I was dying for a cute little baby when I was 14, and if they had pretend babies like that at my school, I would have signed up for that class in a second. I got married when I was 19 but didn't have a baby until I was 23. I wanted a little girl so bad, although I wouldn't admit it out loud, and I got one!

Now that she's here (she's 15 months) I'm so glad I waited. And not because I think I would have made a terrible mother at 19 (or 14, haha) but because it's SO MUCH EASIER. I have much more patience now, and my husband is at home half the time to help me, and I have a house, and I can afford to buy my daughter anything she needs without having to give up things for myself. Also, I was able to stay home with her instead of going back to work right away when my maternity leave ended. It was hard to wait for those four years after my wedding, but it was totally worth it a hundred times over in the end!

It sounds like you're quite mature and you have an idea of what you want in the future, and that's actually a GOOD thing. Everyone made fun of me when I was in high school and said that I would rather stay at home with my kids than start developing a career right away, but now tons of those people have kids too, and some of them two or three kids, and they know how rewarding and fun it is to be at home with them for as long as you can!
 
You said it right.."wait till you grow up" to have kids. Nothing like a baby screaming with a loaded diaper to bring having babies back to reality.
 
every girl is different. im 16 and i dont want kids, but thats just me. and i might change my mind when i get older. i know lots of girls and boys that want kids when they get older. its completely normal. its just the same as wanting to get married when your older or having an apartment instead of a house when you get older. its just what you like.
 
No it is not weird.

When I was 14, Suzanne my 16 year old, older friend, was desperate to have a baby. We talked about it when we ran track together. As a result I suspect that wanting a baby very young is probably pretty common.

Still I DEFINITELY think it is a good idea to wait, which you are clearly are doing.

Live your life. Enjoy the experience of a few boys courting your attention. Learn what you can while you are in school. Get a little work experience (maybe if you love children, at a daycare center or babysitting or whatever).

Then settle down if that is what you want. Get married. Start a family. Doing that earlier rather than later is definitely a good idea. But try to wait until you are married and older than 20.

Until then try to enjoy your youth. Prior to being 25, you have plenty of time for everything. After then, if children are a priority, focus on that.

Best of luck
 
its normal. theres questions on here all the time about this and a lot of times people take them the wrong way. but i think its perfectly normal and its just hormones. as long as your not out trying to get pregnant its fine. ive wanted a baby forever. i just feel like im meant to be a mom. but im waiting. like i should. hope i helped.
