Do I Want A Baby?

Ok so, for the last year of my relationship, my girlfriend hasn't stopped talking about having kids. We've both wanted to be parents for years. I just wish it was simpler.

My gf and I got together a year ago. A couple of months later, we ended up moving in together. It was a little quick for me but real world circumstances pretty much forced me to move in with her or break up with her.

It already made me a little uncomfortable how quickly we seemed to be moving . I do love her and I do want to be with her but I feel so much pressure to get her pregnant. She's in her mid thirties, so she's worried about her ability to get pregnant.

I feel like the desicion has been taken completely out of my hands and I'll be completely responsible for the child when they're born. I do want to be a dad but i want to do it because I want to, not because I need too.

That's the situation I'm in. The pressure is putting me off wanting kids right now. But if I don't do it now, I may never get to be a dad. And then I don't know what I'll do with myself.

I have four kids and as I jokingly tell them, everyone of you were mistakes. We would have never had kids if we waited until we were "ready" we just let nature take its course. I also tell them that it's the best four mistakes that I've ever made. Raising them was the best time in my life and they continue to give me Joy everyday I don't know where I'd be if I never had kids. It's definitely hard but so worth it. So just dive in man you won't regret it
