Once again, age is relevant. If you're a minor you can't buy health insurance for your kid, for starters. If you're over 18, then no, it doesn't matter. As long as you have a house and a steady income and a fair amount of money stashed away from emergencies and good maternity and child health insurance, then there really isn't anything to consider exept for vain things, such as whether or not you would want to be hugely pregnant during Christmas or during the hot summer, etc. And if you live in a colder area, a summer baby would be better because newborns are more susceptible to colds and RVS, which are more prevalent during the winter season. In which case you should start TTC around now or around August of next year. 
AGE is NOT relevant I have health insurance, and I will be getting health insurance for my child. I have a nice home, a good income, a good education, money put away all that. I am not asking if I should have a child, I am just asking if there is anything that I may have not thought about yet. I don't care about vain things. I don't care what I am going to look like pregnant. Pregnancy is beautiful, not something that women should look down on themselves for. Quote: from siddox3 at 9:31 pm on Oct. 15, 2008
DO YOU HAVE A PET DOG 
I have 4, and telling someone to get a dog, when they want a child, is stupid. Post edited at 4:09 am on Oct. 16, 2008 by Anonymous

READ. KTHNX. Your refusal to disclose your age means I have to give you the same lecture I would give a 17 year old TTC, just in case you are. And notice, in the bold, I said if you're over 18 it doesn't matter. Also, did I say pregnancy should be looked down on? Where did I say that? Please, show me. Pregnancy is uncomfortable. You're huge, your ankles swell, your back hurts, your boobs hurt, you have to pee every 20 minutes like clockwork. I was due three days before Christmas. It's a bitch to try and get through the holidays when you're that uncomfortable. It's also a bitch to be that uncomfortable during the summer if it's hot where you are. You asked if there are things you need to consider when getting pregnant, and I gave you a few of them. So why don't you get your fucking attitude out of my throat when I was just giving you what you asked for, ok? Post edited at 9:49 pm on Oct. 15, 2008 by katrinadoodle

Don't assume because I am telling you that age is irrelevant that I am a child. I am not a child. Show me where I said that you said pregnancy should be looked down on? I am fully aware that pregnancy is not comfortable all the time. I don't have an attitude. You are the only one who came in here with an attitude. You came here demanding to know my age, when it is not relevant to this conversation. You did not give me what I asked for. You gave me a speech on how I shouldn't have a kid.

You have yet to tell your age, so you'll excuse me if I don't believe you since every OTHER girl under the age of 18 also claims they want to have a kid because they're not children, either. There's also the fact that you don't want to be judged for your age. That's a pretty big red flag. I never "demanded" to know your age, I merely said it's not irrelevant as you claim it is. I also never said you shouldn't have a kid. Notice I used IF. Because, once again, you refuse to tell anyone your age. "IF you're over 18 If you're over 18, then no, it doesn't matter. AS LONG AS you have a house and a steady income and ...." I gave you exactly what you asked for. IF you have everything you claim you have, then the ONLY things you have to consider, WHICH YOU ASKED FOR, are the little things SUCH AS being uncomfortable at a busy time of year or a hot time of year or having a newborn at a time of year that could endanger their health.

I am not going to tell my age, because it does not make a diffence in this conversations. I could care less whether or not your believe me. You have proven yourself judgemental. Just because I don't want my age to be judged in the situation, does not mean that I am some 14 year old girl that just wants a baby to have one. I am not a child, that is all that you need to know. You have asked repeatedly for my age, and made judgements based on what you assume my age to be. In my books, that is pretty demanding. It is very much irrevelvant. My question had absolutely nothing to do with my age. I am not asking if I should have a child. That is not what was up for discussion, because whether or not you, or anyone else thinks I should have a child, I am going to have one. I have no reason to tell anyone my age, because it does not matter. The questions I have asked have nothing to do with age. I didn't ask if I should have a baby. Once again, that is not what is up for discussion. NO you didn't. You gave me a speech, on how you assume that I am a minor, and shouldn't have a child, because I won't tell you my age. You may have thrown in a few little things, but this post included, you put more judgments in it, and just threw a little bit of on topic information so that you can say that you gave me what I asked for.

You say you will go back to school... so how are you done? Have you been in any type of college or tech school? 
Just because I want to further my education, does not mean that I am not to a point where I can call myself finished. I have already been to college, and am about to graduate for the second time.
Watch what you say about teens that "just want kids" I had my first daughter at 16, and you said so yourself that your age won't effect how you care for your child. Now all teens who have kids just want a baby to dress up. 
My age won't effect how I care for a child, because I am not a child. You took this completely out of context. MY age won't effect how I care for my child. That doesn't mean that being 16 won't effect how your child will be raise, because frankly, it will. Sorry
Anyway, if you haven't been through any college or anything.. I really wouldn't recommend having a baby just yet. School with children... College or high school, is very hard on you. Especially if you also have to work. 
I already said, I am done with school, but may go back soon enough. A child isn't going to make a big difference in that.
However, if you are making a significant amount over minimum wage and have the education that you desire, if you have the funds and all that to make it easier on yourself and the baby... well then the time of you doesn't mean a thing. When you're pregnant you normally get rather uncomfortable no matter what. So you'll either be too damn hot or too damn cold no matter what, lol. 
I know I can take care of a child. That isn't the question. Whether or not to have the child, isn't up for discussion actually. That I have already made my mind up about.
If you are ready to have a child then just start trying for it. Don't worry about the time of year or any other that. THAT is truly irrelevant. 
Some people think it is better to have a child in the winter, others think it is better to have kids in the summer. I was just kinda looking for those kinds of opinions.
