I want a baby but my boyfriend doesn't yet. What should I do?

give him and yourself time. think about it and whether you're ready to have a baby both mentally and financially. try talking to him about this and try understanding his point of view too.

Wait because its always better to make sure he is certain. Good things come to those who wait and its always the best for a kid to have two parents because they are hard work

Having a baby and taking care of a child requires both of you to be 100% in. I say wait and talk it out with him.

The most important thing you can do is decide if you want him to be the father of your children above all else, and work at it from there. Things will fall in place over time if it is meant to be, maybe he just isn't ready for that time of his life yet

Have a mature conversation with him and explain why you feel you want a baby. Ask him what he has against it and listen to his concern. Having a baby is a big step!

The best way to handle this is to find mediums that can satisfy your baby lust without hurting your relationship with your boyfriend. Try babysitting for some relatives or friends. Get a job or volunteer at a daycare center. Work in a pregnancy or infant help center. Any of those options or any other options that you can think of that can get you involved with kids will help you feel more complete. It will help satisfy your need to have a baby. True it is not your own baby but it is a temporary filler until your boyfriend is ready to have a child of his own. To get your boyfriend to get more used to the idea of getting a baby you can ask him to join you in some of those activities. If he enjoys playing with kids then he might start to think about having a kid of his own. Just do not force him to participate in the activities as that might turn him off of parenting. Be patient and be yourself. Hopefully your boyfriend will be ready to have a child soon.

Wait. If he's not ready, it's not good to have a baby. You both should be prepared. It's good to honestly talk about it.

You cannot force him to want a baby or family, he may not feel ready, perhaps getting a pet like a dog first.

I understand getting along with your partner is hard, but it is your right to have children, and his right not to be a father. Talk about it until you agree; if you can't, maybe you should break up and go different ways. You both have rights--but can they collide? you're wondering. Try to talk about it to find a way.

Communication is an integral part of a functioning relationship as a whole. Consider sitting down with him and just talking over what you want (a baby), why you want it, and why you think it would be better for the relationship overall. However, keep in mind that you cannot force him to change his opinion over wanting a baby or not.
