I have been with my boyfriend over 6 years now and I know we will marry someday but I can't help feel strong urges to have a family with him...I know were not ready but it makes me feel sad and depressed knowing I can't have kids yet. I'm turning 26 in July and most of the time I'm fine but my baby envy gets the better of me sometimes to the point of crying because I'm not pregnant.

I have been with my boyfriend over 6 years now and I know we will marry someday but I can't help feel strong urges to have a family with him...I know were not ready but it makes me feel sad and depressed knowing I can't have kids yet.

I felt like that before. I'm 29. My friends have kids. Most of them by accident. So, they deal with it.
I chose to wait and have a better career so I can sustain myself and my future family.
Money ...
I grew up in a poor family. I didn't have much memories when we were really poor because I was a baby. I heard my family said there were days that my mom starved for us to eat, or we cried because we had no food.
I wouldn't want that for my future children and for myself.
Once you accept there are more advantage for you and choose to not have children yet. You'll feel better.
If you really want to conceive and that your boyfriend also wants , you can always seek for fertility medical assistance.
