Is it too soon?

    Myself and my girlfriend have been going out for just over a year now. We're both in our early 20's and expecting a baby.

    We've both talked about our future together and how we want to be together. I was wondering is it too soon to propose?

    Marriage has come up as general talk but I don't know when it actually comes down to it is it too soon.

    A mate of mine was with his Fiance for about 8 / 9 months before he proposed to her. They've been engaged now for over a year and a half, but due to be wed in Sept.

    If you want it and she indicates that she's interested, just go a head and propose.

    There's never a too soon, but don't do it on account of the baby alone. Another mate of mine did that as he felt it was the right thing to do, they were only engaged for about 6 months and only see each other when the kid is being passed between them.

    A baby is a MUCH bigger commitment than marriage!
    I can't see how you would think it's too soon for marriage but not too soon to have a baby.

    If your relationship appears to be that unstable, avoid marriage for now. Don't do it on account of having a baby.
