I feel I should have children. Should I get it out of my head?

Consider Your current situation and how children would impact it. If all is fine and Your partner and You truly desire it, then do it.

why do you feel that way? if you do, do it because you want them, not to please society or someone else.
I'm pretty open about not wanting kids and I know that's not what society expects from me, overall because I'm a woman, but I don't care.

You should have children, but make sure you have some sort of financial security. One of the biggest regrets people have when they die is not having children. Just by you posting this I know you would be one of those people.

I feel like this. I won't know if it wasn't meant to be if I don't take the step find out.

The grass is always greener on the other side. I've known people who have had children wonder what it would've been like childless. But then I've had people say having children changed them and they couldn't imagine life without them.

I dunno, if you're poor, probably.

No one ever has kids and is open about regretting it until the kid grows up, and doesn't turn out as planned, the mistake is parents planning on the outcome in the first place. It's your job to provide financial and emotional support up until they're self-sufficient. If they never become self-sufficient, you fucked up somewhere and that can mean as much as having them at all, like in a country with no resources. But it's your choice to have them knowing there is a chance that they might not have any opportunities when they're older. You can't control that, there is very little you can control in either of your lives. You need financial security first and foremost and that DOESN'T mean being barely able to feed and clothe them and send them to public school.

use game theory on the situation and if you decide to have children please adopt instead of dealing with the baby years and doeing the immoral thing of ading another soul to suffer on this planet
