Is it normal if my girlfriend wants to start a family?

I take more than three months to decide what color I want to paint my walls because I'm not sure I'll find the color appealing. How on earth can someone who's known someone else for three months even think about wanting to take a step that will involve you in the other person's life forever!?

Some things to consider:

- How will you pay for a home, food, medical expenses, diapers etc.? Lots of established two-income households have to postpone having a baby because of the costs.

- Are you finished your education yet? If not, how will you find the time, money and energy to complete it?

- Do you believe she's truly had time to process her loss if it's only been three months?

Please be extremely careful and keep up with your birth control. You wouldn't be the first couple to let baby fever overwhelm your better judgement, but if you decide not to have a kid, you can always revisit that decision in a year or two. If you plunge ahead, well...you're stuck. I can paint over my walls, but you don't get a do-over if you have a baby with someone.

Is it normal? Yes. Is it wise? no.

Not the best decision, given your age. Wait till you've finished school and you have your own place and you can afford it :)

It's normal to want to get pregnant again after a miscarriage, but I don't think it would be very wise, given the situation you've just stated between you and your girlfriend.

Mother of holy God do not say you'll father her baby who someone else owns while you've been with her for four months and you're a teenager? Jeez it sounds like the worst idea by itself with no elaboration.

dont jump into responsibilities when you are teenagers. you ll not only suffer but you ll make everyone who care's for you suffer.... so a BIG NO

It's normal for any female to want children, it's all encoded in their (and ours, technically) survival genes. It is NOT normal, however, to start one in your teenage years and then struggle for god only knows how long, with balancing school, work, and kid. Trust me, don't do it.

To be fair i dont think its normal to have it so fast already. I would first settle and think carefull for making any choice. But to be fair some woman are obsessed by having a kid, but becarefull because she also have to love you because later u dont want this kid to be with divorced parents, it doesnt have to ofcourse. But love isnt hasty and just take it all with patience for this its not something. You will be stuck to it your whole life and especially when u are a teenager i would wait a few years if i was you even if u love someone so much.

it looks like to me that she's going a little too fast. she needs to slow down and you need to tell her that, otherwise you and the child that you probably are going to bring it to this world will be screwed for life.

You should definitely wait. You're a teenager for crying out loud! And you've only been dating this girl for 3 months.

Make sure all your ducks are in a row before starting a family. A lot of work comes with a baby, and you need to be financially secure too.

God, this dam phone!

*and, stop wearing your condoms

I voted "not normal". Tell her What you told us. Keep an on her. Like someone else said; in case she stops taking her birth control insists you wear your condoms!!! Depending on whether or not you two are underage, it might not be a bad idea to her parents or your parents about her behaviour.

It's not normal at all.

Keep an eye on this one, she may stop taking her birth control without telling you or try to punch holes in your condoms.

Assuming you two are close, tell her what you just told us.
