mama2three agony auntBe honest with him, tell him that you're not ready! Trust me, spend a few years being a married couple for awhile, then have babies. Enjoy each other, travel, do fun things. Let him know that you're not ready to enter that part of life's journey just yet :)

Tell him that you are not ready to have a baby. Spending a few years together as a married couple will give each of you a chance to get to know each other and fall more deeply in love.

Then when the two of you do have a child you'll each have a strong foundation to help you through all the pain and heartache of bringing a baby in to this world and raising it.

Isabella1974 agony auntHello sweetheart, having a baby is a big, big step and comes with a lot of responsibility. Bringing a baby into the world you will need to be 1) in a very strong, stable relationship, 2) have a good job and good income to be able to support a family and be emotionaly ready. At the moment you are still very young, so you are right not to feel you are not ready, give yourself a chance to live life a bit before you decide to settle down, you may want to go to college, be with your friends, travel etc there are many wonderful and exciting things you can do together which you won't be able to if you have a baby at this stage. You still have you whole life ahead of you, so please dont rush into having a baby just yet. So tell him you are not ready sweety. good luck xx
