i WANT a baby ....
 

I really want a baby !!
I have been so so broody for ages and its getting to be a nightmare ..
I know I cant get pregnant until my partner gets a job but this is becoming a nightmare, he wants one , we've even been talking about names for it ...
Is there anyway to become less broody :S
I dont know when hes going to be able to find employment so I just feel sad

The maternal instinct, broodiness, is very persistent, isn't it! I don't know any ways to become less broody, but maybe re-directing it into having a pet, or doing some voluntary work, might help in the short term.

Unfortunately I've never found a way to become less broody, only to think logically about what having a child entails. That sort of gives me the chance to evaluate what sort of life I would give a child and once I realise that, right now, it would not be great, the urge lessems slightly.

Well, perhaps not 'lessens' but it reminds me to focus on other things. Like getting some savings together, becoming more established in my job, saving up for a bigger home etc.

You don't have to be pregnant to start getting ready for future children xx
