My husband and I are newly weds under 1 year, but have been together 5 years. We are 21 and 22. We are thinking of trying to get pregnant at the end of 2008 I'll be 23 is that too early? Yes or no? Should we wait longer?

the right time to have a baby is when u feel the time has come and both u and u'r husband are ready to have it. if u find yourselves ready, u have a good relationship and a stable income to take care of the baby, then it doesn't matter what age u are. i know women who had a baby at almost 30 and they still didn't do such a great job as parents. so it's not about the age is about being ready.

I don't really think that age should be a factor. I think maturity is more important. There are some women who have a baby when they are 18 and are perfectly ready for a child. On the other hand, there are women who are into their 30s but still aren't mature enough for children. I think if you feel absolutely ready, then you most likely are. If you are feeling skeptical about it, maybe you would want to wait a while before trying.
