need advice...
| Mon, 09-29-2003 - 5:23am |
hi,
we havent started trying to conceive yet but are on the edge of staring to try. the thing is everytime I think about it the same question comes into my mind and makes me very hesitant about actually coming off birth control, that is .."is this the right time?"
I am 20 I have been in the same relationship for nearly 5 years, we have lived together for 2 and a half years (and we have a house) however we are still quite young and neither of us hs much experience with babies or children...The main thing is that I am just about to finish my degree and we have mainly planned that after the baby would be born my fiancee would give up work and stay home ... is this unrealistic?

Is there any advice that anyone can give on how to be sure that you are ready? would we be taking too much of a risk tryng to get pregnant now?
the other thing is that since both of us want this is there any pre-trying advice or things we need to do?
sorry to ramble on ... so manu questions! :)
thankyou for reading

my parents were also young when they had me and stayed together (until my mother died)
i suppose you are right about there not really being a "right time" , thankyou for your advice
(i dont need insurance because I live in Wales so health care is free.)
I have one more question though (sorry) I have read on posts that people chart their cycles... how can I find out more about this? Is there anywhere that can help me to do this?
