16 & Want A Baby, In A Care Home & In A Long Distance Relationship ...How can i take my mind of it?

Miss W

Hey,
Im 16 and i want a baby. I watch 16 & pregnant , underage and pregnant and all these birth programs like all the time. Like i've miscarried around a year and 3 months ago, and it still sits on my mind. Like all the time i see people around me saying there expecting and i wish it was me, then when i see a baby i burst into tears because i want a baby. Like i no its hard work but im up for it because when the baby's 18 i no i've done my job while raising him/her. Im currently in a care home due to coming clean about my dad abusing me and i just think i want somebody there to show i love them and they love me back. Im also in a long distance relationship with a lad who is 18, i live in london and my boyfriend lives around manchester area. Its hard and he says hes not ready for a baby and i accept it and will waite. But how can i take my mind of it? Its really started to hurt to the point where i cant go out in case i see somebody who's pregnant or a little baby.

P.S -
I want a baby but not till my boyfriend is ready, so i need a way to take my mind off it :< Help

Answer
What's your reason for wanting a baby so much? Having been abused by your Dad i think you are looking for someone who will love you unconditionally. Having a baby for this reason is not right. You are still young, why tie yourself down with a baby now? What can you give a baby right now aswell? your living in a care home and your boyfriend is miles away. Not exactly a great start for a newborn is it.

Live your life and enjoy it before settling down. There's more to life than just having babys.
