I am too old and out of shape to beat around the bush so I'll give it to you straight. If you want sugarcoating go to the candy store, you won't find it here. Sometimes a little good old fashioned honesty is just what the doctor ordered!

I'm female, only fifteen, but sometimes I catch myself wanting a child of my own. Sometimes it's random, like I'm just laying in bed thinking and the thought comes around, and sometimes it's because I see someone with a baby. But either way, I'm freaking out about it in my head and I can also feel it with my body, like an urge or a deep longing. Not for sex, but I can feel in my body the longing for a child that shares my DNA. Is this natural??

Also, it may be because my dad was kind of a crappy father figure, but when I picture myself with a child, it's always just me, no father in the picture or even any thoughts about a daddy. Any ideas on that?? Thank you in advance for your responses!! (: (link)
This is actually pretty common. Little girls are given dolls and encouraged in this nurturing role from infancy throughout the formative years. Then all at once you are too old for dolls but that need to nurture is still there! There is nothing wrong with longing for motherhood someday as long as you keep it in perspective. You are only 15 so it is also natural that you do not see a partner in picture yet. You must be patient and all these things will eventually come to you in their own time. In the meantime you could find some babysitting jobs to give you an outlet for all these maternal feelings. Getting a pet that you would have to care for is another way to put these feelings to use in a constructive way. Once you are finished with your education and you meet that someone special you will then be ready to give a child the future it deserves! I'll bet you will be a great mom someday! Good luck to you!
