What age do you consider fine to have a baby and I don't know who to have a baby with but I want to study for a few years I just feel broody

lol at people saying some time in their 20s, and even those saying early 30s.

In their 20s most people will still be making f*** all salary wise, and they'll be saddled with student loans too. If you try to start a family then you are going to have a bad time

No I think you will be a good mother though 😊

It's nice of you to think that :smile:

But that's not quite true in my current state. In general I think my opinions and morals regarding parenthood are good, however I have some other issues. Let's just say that I can get very explosive very easily. A child doesn't deserve to be afraid that their own mother might blow up on them at any moment, for no reason in particular. I guess this is something that can be worked on, however I am far too stubborn for that >.>

You're gong to hit 30 and realise your fertlity is going to fall of a cliff in a few years and if you're not already in a long term relationship, you are going to go frantically searching for a mate

I waited until I was 30. I'd been married for 3 yrs and had my career pretty established. I still felt too young for the lifetime of responsibility that parenthood brings. There's nothing quite like that moment when you come home from hospital with your first baby, and close the front door, and think 'what have I done?' Also, pretty humbling to be described on your medical notes as a 'mature mother', purely because of your biological age.
