Hi,
I feel a little silly for writing about this I am 25 and I have been in a relationship with my other half for over two and a half years. He is 27 and we are both in full-time jobs with good career prospects.
For the past few months I have been feeling ridiculously broody. I have told my other half about this and he has discussed how he does not feel we are ready, we are currently renting and he would like us to own our own home first. Recently we had a pregnancy scare which came out as a false alarm. I was gutted I mean really gutted, to the point I was crying.
I have got to the point where I feel I can't look at other children because I don't want to get myself this upset. I have explained all this to my other half and I understand if he does not feel ready I don't want to pressure him and I know he is being sensible but my body is in turmoil. I have half of me crying for a baby of my own and another half which agrees and tells me to wait until we have a house.
How can I stop myself feeling this broody? I don't know what to do. I am not the sort of girl who will trap a guy, it's not fair on him or the baby. I just need help putting these feelings at bay until we are both ready.
Any advice would be appreciated
Thanks
