I’m 19 and my boyfriend, the FOB (Father of the Baby) is 22. I am 5 1/2 weeks pregnant.

I have been seeing the FOB for about 6 months on and off and have only known him for 8 or 9 months total. He’s a really great guy and is being really supportive. I have chosen to make an appointment to abort the pregnancy this coming Wednesday. I know a lot of people are very anti-abortion and I don’t want to be attacked for my choice. I plan to stay with the FOB for a long while and possibly have children later in life with him. I don’t think either of us are ready to be parents or have the resources without immense amounts of help from gov. funding to raise a baby. I guess I’m just scared and I need to talk to people who are in the same situation I am. I have not told anyone other than the FOB about the pregnancy.

With just the 2 of us knowing, it makes it hard to emotionally handle without the support of friends and family.
