Hi, I'm 23 and my partners 26 and i'm desperate for a child! I love children and i cant wait to have a child who i can give my undivided attention to!However my partner doesnt want a baby for atleast 3 years, everytime i put the question to him why 3 years, he always states he would love kids with me but would like more money before we start having children! We're both in our own place, have a steady income, i just feel like i cant wait 3 more years for something i want so much.. How do i convinve him? Any advice would be great! x

Hi,
I feel exactly the same way. I am 24 and my partner is 26. I feel like I am ready to have children but he says that he doesn't want any children for at least five years. The thing that makes it worse is that he has a little girl with the most awful horrible women ever, who got pregant without him knowing. I just can't understand why he doesn't want to have children with me as he know its the most important thing in the world to me. It's coming between us, his little girl and me and I don't know what to do. I couldn't do the same as she did in the past, I'm trying to be honest but it isn't working.
Have you managed to sort things?? x

im going through the same situation...sort of. my partner wanted to wait until he was 30. we been together 7 years. hes 27 and im 26 and he has now decided he doesnt want children but he will have them to make me happy. its causing so many rows we are constantly fighting and i dont know what to do anymore. the more he says he will do it for me the more i start rows as i believe he should want them for himself otherwise he will end up resenting me. on top of it i love him to much to effectivally ruin his life. how did you guys get on?do you have any advice?do i just shut up about it all and go ahead with it or do i end things now even though im still so in love with him?
