I’d especially like to hear from those that were in a relationship but weren’t quite ready. Just curious…bf and I have been together for a year and half, he’s 22 and I’m 23. I’m graduating college and he has a good job but wants to be a mechanical engineer. Had a wee bit of a scare because my period came a day late, lol. I can’t imagine ever being ready to be a mother although I want to have one before I’m 30. If I could put an age on it, probably 26–27…I hear from other women who say it becomes a natural instinct though

I constantly think about it because I want my kid to KNOW my parents and they’re kind of getting old entering the 60’s and 70’s in a few years.
