Well, I am 19 in May, living in Australia
I have been with my man (now fiancé) since I was 15 and a half. He is 22 now.
8 months ago, I got pregnant but had an abortion… I have regretted it every day since and I can’t even sleep at night, knowing what I did…
Anyway, my man is absolutely WONDERFUL, the type that is always there for me no matter what. He said that if I want another baby, then we can start a family whenever I want.
I know I want this more then anything. I know it will be hard – I have been working in childcare for the past 2 years. I feel like I’m ready for this, even though I am so young. Well, I’m just wondering what everyone’s advice is on this.

Hi guys,
I found out last week that I am 5 weeks pregnant. I had a miscarriage 8 months ago and was devasted, so when I found out I was pregnant again, I was over the moon. I thought my partner would be too but he isn’t. He has told me that he doesn’t want our baby, that he isn’t ready for that commitment and he wants me to get an abortion. I know that I should, that it isn’t fair to bring up a child without a father, and me not being able to give that child the best I can out of life, but why is it so hard to even think about killing it? I don’t want to get rid of my baby, but I don’t want it to have no father figure around. Please help me?
I am already in love with my child, and either way I choose, it’s going to be devastating.

Yesterday, 1-18, I had an ultrasound. I’m 21 weeks and 6 days today.
I was in there for an hour, looking at all my baby’s organs to make sure everything is functioning right, and thankfully, my baby is perfectly healthy. And of course, my baby is a very active little one so we didn’t get to find out what it was until the last 5 minutes of the ultrasound, and low and behold, it was a little baby girl.
I’m naming her Ava Faith and I can’t wait to meet her.
When I went to the doctor last month for my appointment, they told me that my placenta is a bit low but it’s nothing to worry about.
For the past couple of weeks, I have had almost like stomach pains at the bottom of my stomach and today it is just extremely sore! It doesn’t pain or anything now, but it is just really really sore and I can’t walk properly! When I stand up, I can’t stand up straight or walk immediately, I have to wait a while and then walk…Could it be that my placenta is low? But they said it is nothing to worry about! I’m sure if it was serious, they would have said something to me?
Please help, as I have no idea what it could be? I need to know ASAP. It’s really painful and I can hardly walk!
I was thinking I should maybe go to the hospital and find out what it could be. Because they did say that if anything is wrong, then I must go.
I went to the doctor’s every day this week but Thursday! I had 2 US and 3 stress tests.
This time, all his stress tests were good, thank God! And my fluid went from 7 to 8.5. He had a growth scan this week too. I’ll remind you that at 34.4 weeks, AJ was 3lbs 14 oz. I went on Friday to my regular OB, not the special doctor I see, and they did a growth scan. AJ came up as 3lbs 13oz at 35.5 weeks. I asked them how could that be. They said it’s human error and he didn’t lose weight but they don’t think he gained any either. I don’t get it. I have been eating and eating. I gained 3 1/2 more pounds but AJ didn’t grow and I don’t know why. I’m starting to get worried. The past 2 weeks before this, he gained over 5 oz a week. Now, he didn’t gain any. They said when I go back for my growth scan on Thursday this week, they will measure him and talk to me about options but they didn’t go any further into it.
IDK. I’m just really worried.
I’m 24 years old and I’m 9 weeks pregnant and truly confused about whether or not I should go through with this pregnancy.
I’ve always been against abortions and have always talked my friends out of getting them. It is easier said than done though. When it’s actually “YOU” in the messed up situation, it’s hard to not consider it. Here’s the situation!!! I actually have a 6 month baby boy and now I find out that I’m pregnant again so soon. I was supposed to get on birth control right after having my son but was confused at first about the method I wanted to use and then eventually kind of forgot about it. Huge Mistake! I have a lot of support taking care of my son but I couldn’t imagine telling my family that I am pregnant again. I just can’t bear disappointing my parents. They’re expecting me to go back to college next semester and I know if I have this baby, there’s a huge chance that’s out of the question.
As for my baby’s father, he’s all for the abortion. Financially, we just can’t afford another baby right now. And on top of things, we are currently not together. I just found out he was cheating on me AGAIN! I forgave him before but dont know if can do so again. I actually found out that he was unfaithful to me during the entire length of my pregnancy. I can’t imagine going through all the stress all over again. He was so unsupportive at that critical time in my life. I just have the feeling that he’s going to drive me out of my mind during this pregnancy also.
In my heart, I know I can go through this pregnancy but I’m scared I will be neglecting my son eventually. I know I’m going to get to the point where its going to be difficult for me to take care of him like I should and I am so afraid of that. I want to be the best mom I can possibly be to him and I feel like I won’t be able to if I’m pregnant. But then again, I also feel like I’ll be choosing one child over another. But that’s my baby’s brother or sister. And who am I to decide who gets to live and who does not? It could’ve easily been my son who is already here that I’m trying to abort and I can’t imagine my life without him. I have so many What ifs? What if this my only other chance of having another child? And I really want a girl also, so what if this is my only girl? Its just so confusing. I feel like if God didn’t think I could do it, He wouldn’t have put me n this situation. Basically, i just don’t want anyone judging me. I’m unemployed, not in school, unmarried, and have a 6 month old baby. WOW!!!
Please someone help me make a decision. I’m completely confused!
