Well, I'm gonna put on my old and and say 21 is a little young to really think about getting married... you've got the rest of your life for that... but ... the teeny part of myself that is still romantic says if it's right.. it's right and you will know...
You have to do what's right for you, first and foremost. Because it's right for you, not because it would make other people happy. Your job is not to make other people happy, only yourself - if the by product of that is other people's happiness then you've got a bonus.
Marry this woman because you love her and you can't imagine the rest of your life without her. Don't marry her because she's convenient and it will make other people happy and worst reason of all because you love her child. (Her child is a part of her -- and you can't love the mom without loving the kid - -but the love of the mom has to be there.
Heart to heart talk with her is your first and best option though.
