my boyfriend is 26 and iam 20, i may be wrong but this is what is on my mind. we've been together for a year and a bit and quite recently he's made hints about babies. there have been a few occasions where he's mentioned this:

once we drove past a new playground and he said "we should have lots of kids so we could go to the playground all the time".

we were discussing what i would do if i was preganant and he said, "i would keep it because it would be a cute baby"

i missed my period once and he said "i hope youre not pregnant, but it would be pretty cool"

we were watching tv, there was a baby and he said "you might even be pregnant now" and started rubbing my belly and i asked, what would you do if i was?, and he said after a pause "i would teach it to play basketball"

is it normal for guys his age to talk about things like this? what does it mean if he says these things? what is he trying to tell me?

chigirl agony auntGuys his age are where they usually begin to start wanting a family and kids. Yes this is usual. And yes I think he wants kids.

Have a serious talk about this. Do you want one too? If he wants one, make it clear, don't keep up this guessing game. If he wants one, when? How many? Marriage first? Hows the finances?

Maybe it will kill off his baby-haze, but in that case it just means he wasn't totally into it in the first place. If he really wants a child he will be more than happy to discuss it properly.

eyeswideopen agony auntHe's just goofing around. Even if he's hinting around, wouldn't be nice to have all the ducks in a row before you bring a baby into the world?
