Ever since I can remember I've wanted a baby. It's been this deep unexplainable need. I have always tried to push away the gut feeling of wanting a baby, but it makes it worse. When I hear that others are pregnant, I get sort of jealous and sad. When I think about wanting a baby, I get this deep sick feeling in the pit of my stomach. Whenever I would engage in sexual activities, I would hope that I was pregnant. I did everything that a pregnant woman would do, sort of pretending I was, until I found out that I wasn't. Does anyone else feel like this? Is there a name for this or is this normal?

    I find it very hard to wait. I know that it's probably not the best thing for me right now, but I feel that growing up with adults rather than children has something to do with it. I'm glad to know I'm not the only one but I honestly don't know how long I can wait. My dreams are always overtaken with these thoughts and they are great. I know how hard it is to have a baby, but I feel that I'm ready for it...

    I think it's normal, but for the love of God please wait! I am 24 and have a 5 month old baby. He is my life. He is amazing. I love him more than I could even begin to put into words and I love being a mother. But my goodness, IT IS NOT EASY! Please wait until you are ready.

    Yes it's normal, I'm sure it's just human nature...you're probably a very nurturing person

    I'm a guy so it's different but I've wanted a baby girl since I was 13 although I knew I wouldn't be able to take care of it till I was older so I never persued it untill recently and aside from acting pregnant I feel the same way so I think it's normal.
