At this point in my life I want a family and I am ready for one. Very Very much. I know that my boyfriend is not ready yet and I completely respect that and am willing to wait until he feels ready. I know it's a joint decision. I never bring it up or try and pressure him. How do I get rid of these intense feelings of wanting a child until hes ready? I have tried to focus on the "cons" and the stressors of having a baby and marriage but it has not in the least altered my feelings. Nothing I try works. It's to the point where I feel stuck at where I am in life. I'm ready to settle down and start a family. So any tips for subsiding the desires would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

I'm going through the same thing, I've wanted a baby for quiet some time now. However, Sometimes you just need to realize that the time may not be right for you just yet. I'm glad to hear that you respect your boyfriends wishes, Not all woman these days respect that. Time will come when it's right, You just need to focus on where you are now.
