You should not let anyone pressure you into making this decision - I'm afraid it's one you have to make yourself for your reasons and not because it's what someone else wants you to do. I'm afraid I can't offer you any advice on what you consider is the right or wrong thing to do - there are far too many variables. I would suggest you may want to get some qualified counselling. Regardelss - it's YOUR choice and one you need to ponder for your child too. Sorry I can't help more.

you have to about the end of the first trimester to make a decision. go to your doctor, go to the family planning clinic, talk to your family. don't hold it inside you, talk it out then come to a decision. you have time to make a decision, use the time wisely.

This is a big decision that is not to be made lightly. I do not believe in abortion personally, but it is your choice to make and live with. If you do not feel that you are ready to be a mother, adoption is a wonderful thing. I was adopted and had a wonderful childhood and parents. My brother and his wife just adopted a baby and it was an open adoption. That is where the birth mother gets to somewhat remain in the child's life. Please go talk to a counselor before you do anything. There are so many couples out there would love to give your child a loving home. Abortion is not the only choice. It is a hard and heart-wrenching decision to make I know, but as you said, you don't want to make the wrong one for you and end up regretting it. I wish you all the best in whatever you decided, but do not make the decision hastily. Even though I'm pro-life, tell the father that it is your choice and you need to be the one to make it after much thought and consideration. He's not the one that has to live with it the rest of his life. Also, just curious if you are getting any kind of support from your family. Take care and good luck.

How old are you? If you are too yong (9-16) it may not be the right time and you may be too young to be a mom right now, dont you think? Or are you thinking about an option like putting it up for adoption? If you are older, and you want to keep it please think about life with baby - what will you do for a job, what happens when you cant get a sitter, what happens when you get called in from work because baby is ill or you need to take care of something. If you are well equipped mentally at any age, then more power to you. When faced with this decision at 18 and again at 20 I was not emotionally capable of handling it and while I wonder what if, I know that I would not have the life, the home and the man I have if I had made the other choice. Think about you and your life, not what dad says - you have to live with this forever, not him.

Go with what you think, Don't have an abortion because someone else wants you to. If you think you will regret it now, you will most definitely regret it later.. If you cannot take care of the child, consider putting it up for adoption..

Thank you all for your responses. It's good to hear some outside opinions. They've each helped in their different ways and has given me a lot to think out. Thank you again.

go with your heart....just remember your father CAN'T make you get an abortion. What's the best for you right now?

just stop and take a deep breath and think about what you are feeling at that moment. Therer are many options out there if you feel that getting an abortion is out of the question. talk to a counsler and go though all the optins of what are avaliable to you. You should never be pressured into making a decison.

They say "when in doubt DON'T"..As others have said, give it alot of thought first, talk to professionals and follow your heart. Its not an easy decision at all for a woman to make. Adoption is also another alternative. Sounds like you have your head on straight, and I have no doubt that you will make the right decision for you.

google or look up a support hotline they have people unbius to talk to you and find out why you would do it and why you dont want to give you other options and in the end you and you alone can may a completly knowledgeble decsion
