you'll never be great at anything in life if you have kids. drop your loads in the toilet, and then get rid of the girl. cannibalism is an option.
 
I had my first two kids when I was 25 (they were 11 months apart). Anyway, I suggest you reassure her that you will, at some point, want to have children. I can't tell you how many people I know who have been left for saying they don't want kids or don't know if they want kids. If you love her and do want kids - make it known. If not, let her go.

That being said - it's nice to want life to be ideal before having kids but if it's not - things will work out! :) My husband made $25 an hour when we had our first and now he makes over triple that amount. We just had our third child and while we definitely have a ton more money - it's not easier. Having kids was much easier when I was 25 (now I'm 32).
 
I feel OPs pain.

Im only 24 and my SO is constantly hinting that she wants marriage and kids soon

Shit sucks. I blame the media and Obama for forcing young woman to want kids so young
 
Feel your pain bro.

We are 30, and she hasn't contracted this virus yet.. but I feel it's inevitably going to rear it's ugly head at some point.

Well, the odds of having a healthier child are higher when you conceive it young. Though now we have the option of freezing eggs and semen so that can be delayed. Still, if you delay it for too long the woman might not be able to give birth later and you'll have to hire a surrogate.

It's not like we're talking about 35 year old women here, there's plenty of time for OP.
 
Have them as early as you can. Speaking as someone with a 2.5 year old boy and a 9 month old daughter at 36, I feel like an old wreck. Yup,have em early and close together.
 
My wife told me she had baby fever about 8 years ago. I was luke warm on it, but fortunately my swimmers did not cooperate. Fucking science! Thanks to in vitro fertilization, our spawn is due in early August. I couldn't be more excited. Don't forget... if you don't reproduce, you will be the very first failure in your direct lines in over a billion years.
 
Girlfriend has been hinting about a baby as well. Not that I'm against the idea, turning 26 this year which is close to when my parents had me.

Ok, I want a daughter >_<

Adoption is a perfectly good/if not better option.
 
Dump her. She will not let up on it until you give her one. Fuck that, dont ruin your life or be forced into a decision because she wants one. If you both want one, fine. But if its just her, dont let yourself be handled by her just to get what she wants.
 
Kids are awesome, congrats OP. Wish I was in your position, I can't wait to be a dad. It's the one thing I really, really want in life.
 
Buy a small dog, a baby mask and some nappies. It might buy you some time while you try and bribe a doctor to claim your sperm won't be at peak effectiveness for another couple of years.

LMAO this is a pretty accurate description. Babies are cute but are alot of work. You have to be sure you know all the responsibility that comes with that cute baby. Also make sure you have the right SO. That child will be yours forever which means your partner will be too so make sure she's the one. You don't want any baby mama drama.
 
Good luck OP...I have a friend like this who I think is going to regret some decisions in years to come because she desperately wants a kid to pop out.

The multiple babies in the same room trick might backfire btw...
 
If you are financially and socially ready and she is the woman who out want to be with, then there is nothing better in the world than being a father. .
 
Having a kid is the most incredible, rewarding experience. It's also really fucking hard work. Really, really hard work. Like 'holy shit I've aged a decade in one year' hard work.

Invite every person with a baby into your house. Cousin, brother, sister, step-sis, step-bro. Everyone! Does you girl still want that bae? Let her handle them little freaks for hours.

Your girl is now the babysitter of every single family member for 20 miles.

Baby intervention, I like it
 
I know this feel... I don't want one for another 4 years or so though.. I'd like to get a good amount of traveling and other expenditures out of the way because if a kid comes its all over after that. RIP my gaming time as well ;_;
 
Ugh. Sorry, OP.

My wife went to the gyno last week and was told that if she wanted kids, she shouldn't be waiting (I'm 30, she's 29, we wanted to wait a couple more years for after we move to have kids)! So now she's doubting her life choices daily. It's fucking great!

As a 24 year old who still looks like he's in middle school, I'm trying to decide if this is supposed to be a bad thing.
 
i miss sleeping comfortably in my own bed since 1yr old takes up all the space, don't really get to spoon anymore etc :( waking up to him slapping my head makes it alright though

Me and the misses both have baby fever, but this is the part I'm not looking forward to. I often feel like a wreck already after having a night or two of bad sleep. We're both sure it's worth it though.
