Evaluate your situation first. See if you would be able to raise a baby well enough with him before trying to ask him. If you think you will both be ready, simply ask him what his views on starting a family are. He might be ready now, but he may want more time before starting a family.

Find a good time, And tell him it is important that both have to want it. And start by agreeing on setting a deadline to think and make a decision. Let him make his choice and respect your common deadline agreement.

I guess it's more simple than you think. Just give him a hint or a honest 'I want a baby with you' and see how does he react. You both should have a honest conversation and reach a decision together, of course.

Well, that isn't just something that only you can decide so you need his opinion on it. You need to just sit him down and be open about it.

Be honest, that is always the best way forward. Unfortunately mind reading isn't a skill for most men.

Honestly. It's a huge commitment and to enter into it without transparency between you and your boyfriend wouldn't be easy. Sit him down and broach the subject to him, listen to his thoughts and tell him yours.

Being honest and open is probably your best bet. Something that serious shouldn't be danced around. Clear with no miscommunication.

Sit and talk. Having a baby should be more out of mutual understanding. Do not force your decision on him. Let him respond as well. My advice, take this step only when you both agree to it.

Sit him down and talk to him about what your needs are. When talking to him about this be sure to be sensitive of his feelings and needs
