Being a parent is really hard, especially if you are not ready. I am almost 23 and have three kids. Its a struggle everyday because we were not ready. But its not like I had triplets, we decided this is what we wanted to do. Because of chemotherapy and other issues when I was younger I was told that I would not be able to get pregnant. So being stupid me and my husband thought we were fine without birth control. Well the doctors were wrong and now we have three beautiful girls.
Now I see where she is coming from she is 28 and maybe thinking she is running out of time. That is understandable, but in the end if you go threw with this while you are not ready you could end up resenting her. This is not something that you just say "fuck it why not", its something that will change the rest of your life. Now alot of baseball players have kids. But the money thing is a concern, I couldnt tell you how better off me and my husband would have been if we saved up money before having kids, but that's our life, and we are doing well right now.
So the best advice I could give you is just to talk and hope she listens. You have stated some reasonable concerns and they need to be resolved before babies are involved
Hope it all works out for you!!
