"I Wanna Have Your Babies" had a polarizing effect on music critics. Channel 4 described it as a "well thought out pop record", and Paul Taylor of the "Manchester Evening News" said it had a "sing-song melody" and "ragged hip-hop beats". Tony Cummings called the song's "R&amp;B pop confection hugely catchy". Online magazine "Drowned in Sound" ridiculed the track, writing that it is "polluting the airwaves with its beyond-banal lyrics." The song's music video was also described in the review as "unforgivable". The BBC was equally unimpressed with the song, claiming it stole the melody of The Jackson 5 song "I Want You Back".
