I got married and pregnant because I felt it was the right time. I totally married the wrong person because it was the right time (for me to get married). I got pregnant, cuz I thought that's what you do when you get married. I applaud you for putting more thought into it. If you don't REALLY really want a child, now, don't do it to avoid being alone later. I fulfilled my responsibility as a parent, but the art/joy of parenting was lost to me. Make sure that you're ready and that you really REALLY want a child.
