Question - (19 June 2007) 3 Answers - (Newest, 19 June 2007)
A female Ireland age 41-50, anonymous writes:

in the last month iv had unprotected sex with my bf of a few yrs, we never discussed it, we just ran out of condoms and he went to stop and i said its ok, as we were already very into it. it was stupid but it happened agian 4 or 5 times during my 2nd and 3rd week of my cycle.

my period was late and i was very worried that i might be pregnant (which was completely down to my own actions) im in my mid 20s and my bf is in his early 30s, it wud be inconvenient but not a complete crisis if i was pregnant,we wud cope and more than likel really enjoy it after the shock.

my period finally came but instead of relief i felt so sad, i now know i really want a baby but have started using condoms again as its not been discussed properly and id like to be married and maybe have a yr or 2 just as husband and wife. but how can i make this broody feeling go away?

iv always wanted kids, but it was always in a few yrs but now i really really want them, my bf wants a few too but maybe not now-although he's a very decent man and we'r madly in love and him standing by me is not an issue.

id like to file my feelings away until a more suitable time but really dont know how to do that.

YummyMummy agony auntHow about taling things through with your boyfriend. I've had broody/maternal feelings since my late teens and just sort of coped with them. I was lucky my mum had a child when I was 16 so I could fuss over her. Then last year my sister had a baby.... but now I'm pregnant myself.

Concentrate on having the kids in the future, and enjoy the things you do with your boyfriend at the moment as it all changes when you do fall pregnant :)

Yes, just know that you and your boyfriend both want children, only just not now. Hopefully the two of you will marry and have a year together before beginning a baby.

Since you are clear on what your goals are, I urge you to stick to them; be sure to always use condoms, and in the meantime, enjoy your relationship!
