Brinny,
I can too relate to "everything" that Lisa shared with you. I had an abortion years ago and can say that decision has brought nothing but pain and regret, especially around holidays, birthdays and my anniversary day of aborting my little one. We only want to you to be informed and understand, abortion truly does not cure anything, but create more issues than you can imagine. Understand, abortion is not a good choice for your future or your baby’s.
I understand how scared you are and if you and your boyfriend are not able to support a child etc, I encourage you however to take a deep breath and if your truly not ready or equipped to check into adoption. Adoption is such as loving choice. By choosing adoption, you will have given your baby the gift of life and not have to endure the agonizing regret of a lifetime, but also a couple that likely cannot have children but who long to will be blessed.
You, your baby, boyfriend and situation are in my thoughts and prayers.

Well…sister, not knowing the specifics on this situation, it makes me think you have been taken advantage of. This is a very difficult situation. Feeling alone is the worst. You need to talk with someone you respect and trust. If not, go to your local pregnancy resource center. They have awesome people there that care deeply for ladies in your shoes and can help.
But don’t let anyone pressure you into an abortion. I can tell you from experience, aborting is something you’ll regret for the rest of your life. Both keeping your baby and adoption are very loving choices. You may not have all the answers, but they will come in time, especially with good support. Just follow your heart and take one day at a time. Hang in there.
