Hey everyone,
Im Angela im 17 and 11 weeks pregnant. I Don't know what to do i love my baby more then anything. My mum knows im pregnant but not my dad as yet my mum said she doesnt think i am ready to look after a baby but will support the decision i choose but then there is my bf he wants me to have an abortion he is scared he has booked the abortion for tomorrow Tuesday the 19th i cried so much when he told me i am struggling to know what is right from wrong when everyone is saying get rid of it. I dont wanna hurt people with my decision but im falling so quick im suffering from something that hasnt happened yet. How do you know whats right? How can you keep everyone happy? Why cant he understand what his doing to me? he keeps telling me his proud of me but how can he be proud of me. i feel horrible about even thinkin about an abortion but i dont know if im ready for a kid. How do i make the right decision in less then 24 hours:(

Please help me
Love angela

Hi there, i really feel for u. Im in a simialar situation. Im 9wks 3days pregnant. My dad and stepmum are supporting my decision to keep the baby but my mum who lives abroad isnt. She is totally against me keeping the baby, even going as far as telling my friends to convince me to abort the baby. She has only just started speaking to me again but even now she doesnt mention the pregnancy or baby.The dad doesnt even know, he wont be supporting me, he moved away a few months ago and i have no contact details for him. Its tough. You have to decide what u feel is right, because if u have an abortion just to please other ppl, u will resent these ppl for the rest of ur life and it will bring u great unhappiness and regret for a long time. Its a difficult decision, believe me i know, but for me, i just knew i cudnt go through with an abortion and wen i went for an early scan and saw the little heartbeat, i knew i wanted to keep it. Nobody will be disappointed in u, if u decide to keep it, im sure they will understand and in 6months time wen a beautiful baby is here, they will all want to be the first to hold he/she. But saying that, if u dont think its the path u want to take just yet, then dont feel bad, u have to do whats right for u. No one else. Please let me know how u get on. xxx

Hi Angela,
I read your forum, and i guess i don't really know what to say. But id like to offer you support, as i know what your going through right now. I'd like to tell you a bit about myself i have three children my youngest is 7months, and i love them all sooo much and couldn't imagine life without them. But im pregnant again and im booked in for an abortion on the 20th Dec in two days, im so confused and sufferring like you i don't know what to do this is the hardest thing i have ever faced in my life. But my partner doesn't want another and i don't think im ready. But how do you choose between life and death? So im going through hell at the moment and can imagine that you feel the same. If you want to talk some more send me a message

Dont get an abortion please let your son live, i was pregnant at 15 an alone, my bf left us, and i tried to hurt my baby inside of me, but i didnt do it and now she is the joy of my life, all my heart is to her, your baby is going to be with yo all the time:) think about it.

Well hun

The only way you know whats right is what your heart is telling you. You said you loved the child already, it sound to me like you have already decided to keep it in your heart and your brain and everybody elses brain is getting in the way. Just tell them i'm keeping my baby and theres nothing you can do about it. It will be hard no doubt about that, but what in life is actually easy. Storngly think about what you are doing before you do something you regret.
Keep posted on your decion.

DONT DO IT! dont get me wrong im not anti abortion and at the end of the day its your decision, but the impression i get from your post is that you really really dont want to go through with it, you are only even thinking about it because everyones telling you to, its not there decision to make its yours and yours alone! dont let anyone pressure you into getting rid of your baby only for you to regret it every day for the rest of your life!
goodluck in YOUR decision xx
