i know EXACTLY how you feel...i'm 20 too and my dream is to be a mother...i wanted it so badly..i actually teared up every time i saw a baby or a pregnant lady...however, after talking ot over with friends and of course my lovely partner, i realised that its not the right time...we DO want kids, but not just yet..we are still uni students...
your need to be a mother wont fade...but think what you will miss when you bring a child into the world...of course nothing i or anyone else can say will change what you want...talk it over with your partner......he has to want is a much as you in order to make a happy family...this is my opinion....just follow your heart and do what feels right... best of luck!
you do it when your ready. I listened to much to my family politics and here I am at 42 and my chances are slimmer than yours now. Don't keep thinking 'wait till your older' because once you hit 30 your pregancy rate has already dropped. By 35 its even harder, by 38 its less again, by 41 its even slimmer.
When I was 24 I had a nervous breakdown and was diagnosed with major depression. My life has been all sickness and thats why my family were so against it. I also had to fight a failed system to get treatment which is why I am now only just basically coming out the other side.
You just never know what the furture holds. Take every opportunity by the horns and run with it.
best of luck!
