Why do I want a baby so badly?

So before you tell me I m stupid, I know this is. I m really confused by my own brain and I need an outside answer. So I m only 20 and my boyfriend is 25. The problem is, I ve always wanted to be living with and married to him before having kids. Always. But here lately I ve wanted a baby so badly that its heart breaking. My boyfriend says he wants us to have kids but be responsible and get married and move into a house together first. And the crazy part is, I know he s right. I agree with him. But I still have this heart ache about getting pregnant. Logically I m being stupid but I can t stop wanting one. I feel crazy. Has anyone else gone through this or have any ideas on why I m feeling this way?? Is there a way to make it stop? I won t act on it but I just wish I didn t want to cry every time I see a pregnant woman cause I m so jealous that my face heats up and my heart breaks a little bit. I m usually very responsible and logical so this just upsets me. Thank you.

    I'm sure you want what is best for any child/children you have so please wait until you are married and financially

    capable to care for them.

    You are far from alone here! Young women have a natural instinct to have children and often the feelings are very strong. It can also stem from insecurity and feelings of being unloved.

    At twenty you are only just learning about your adult self, so do please give yourself some time. Concentrate on other things - your studies, music, sports or whatever, and try to take lots of physical exercise.

    Your maternal instincts are kicking in. Every time you see a pregnant woman or a baby it's going to happen to you. So you need to tell your b/f what is happening to you because what he is planning may be years away, you think you can wait that long?

    It's called baby fever. It's irrational.
