I'm 19 yrs old me and my bf have been together for 2 years. We both want to marry eachother, he just hasnt asked me yet. He is the love of my life! I am done with 1 yr of college and will then be doing an 11 week internship. After that I plan on taking some online classes and getting a full time job. My bf has a full time job and we live 2gether on our own, and he supports both of us right now. until i get a job after my internship. Would it be ok to plan on getting pregnant in a few months or should I wait a little longer?

what's a rush? you guys are not even married yet. trust me, you will want to enjoy each other after you get married. you know, honey moon and just regular dates together. you're only 19 years old. i think you could probably wait couple of years. or when you're done with college. also, if you start looking for a job and are pregnant, it might be hard to find one, since the employers might not hire you because you will have to leave when the baby is there. after that you wont have any time to hunt for any jobs because you'll have plenty of work at home.
lastly, you wont be able to finish your college. you probably could, but will be tired most of the time and baby will need you 24/7 and it will make things very difficult at school. don't want to sound like mom, but really, enjoy the college for now, enjoy the youth! you have plenty of time to get pregnant after you're graduate, find a job, get a bit of savings.
whatever you decide, good luck!

because it is a beautiful picture. you're happy with your bf, you're planing your future, you feel independent and baby seems like a good idea.
