What does it mean when your boyfriend is acting indecisive about having a child?

Question

So my boyfriend originally told me he doesn’t want kids, then after a while he changed his mind and said he may want them eventually just not right now. He’s always showing me pictures of his little niece , and even asked me if I thought that me and him would make cute babies , and started describing what he thought they would look like. He told me that he wanted me yo get on birth control but when I mentioned setting up an appointment it seemed like he was trying to talk me out of it. Also we have had unprotected sex he told me that we were both being stupid , only to do it again bc we didn’t have any condoms on hand. I personally wouldn’t mind a baby with him but I don’t know why he’s acting very indecisive.

For the sake of the child, not you nor him, please don't even consider having kids until you're married.

Social benefits and a proper birth certificate with the names of both parents means a lot to the child's future.

And yes, you already know it: having a child is a 20-year commitment. It's serious and concern another life.

Hence please, don't even consider pregnancy until you're legally marrried. For the child's sake.

It means he's assessing your fitness as a mother since you should have been smart enough not to have kids until you got married.

He’s not sure whether he wants a kid or not. Part of him does and part of him doesn’t.

So what happens if he decides fully he doesn’t want kids?

Why would you have a child with a man you have not married? This is weapons grade stupid.
