writes: Wondering if you can provide honest opinions on the below...I'm with the man of my dreams and simply cannot wait to have children! I know its not the right time yet, and I want my man to be ready so i'm not rushing him or bringing it up. He knows that I want a baby so pretty much it's up to him to decide when it will be.My problem is that when he isn't around I find myself researching into things online. It could be another year or 2 away yet so I dont know if its normal to be fixated on something, or should I try forget it altogether?I research into stages of pregnancy and others experiences on pregnancy and having a baby. I started watching some documentaries on children and growth and development as find them really interesting and cute. But i do this in secret as I'm scared my partner will think i'm crazY and pushing him for a baby. I even got so excited shopping for a friends baby birthday present, gushing over the clothes and toys. I've started a savings account so I have plenty of money for when we have a baby and I know EXACTLY where my partner stands but I still feel a huge sick disappointed feeling when he comments that it isn't the time yet.Is this just normal when a woman is at the biological clock ticking stage? I'm late 20s by the way.As i said, I'm NOT at all rushing my partner. He can't wait to have kids but just doesnt want to at the moment. But I find myself thinking about it all the time, like what I'll do about work and income. I am scared if its obsessive though... ideas?thanks in advance!

Yes, it's your biological time clock ticking. It can be kept overwhelming the need/want to be a mother.
Keep yourself busy and those baby wants at bay. Offer to babysit your friend's babies, children, nieces, or nephews for a bit of practice or to temporarily satisfy that want.
