Should I feel guilty?

Question

I'm 15 weeks pregnant today and have had a change of heart and don't feel ready for this baby. It's hit me that I am completely not ready and I don't feel like I can give the baby the life I could if I waited a few years. My boyfriend doesn't want the baby either. I want your opinions please

Answer

Go to a clinic and sit down with someone who isn’t biased. Know all your options.

Answer

Do what you think is best for you. People can state their opinions all they want, but ultimately it’s your decision. If you want to get an abortion, call up your local clinic and ask them all about it.

Answer

Try an abortion support group? You gotta do what you feel is best. I’ve had an abortion before and it’s not an easy decision to make. Also, check your local clinic and see if they’ll even take you at 15/16 weeks

Answer

Go to a clinic and talk to someone about all your options. You may be past the point where you can terminate your pregnancy. But talk to someone qualified to be sure.
If you are not ready to be a mom giving the child up for adoption may be the best course.
Good luck with whatever you decide to do.

Answer

I can’t speak to the abortion question. But I can tell you that my biological mother was in your shoes and chose to find an adoptive family for me (and also for my younger brother who she accidentally got pregnant with a year later). We have the most incredible adoptive parents in the entire world, and my bio mom went on to live her life and is perfectly happy with no kids. My parents went through two failed adoptions before me when the biological mothers of other babies changed their minds after the babies were born and decided to keep them. There are thousands of couples out there who can’t have babies of their own and would give anything to adopt. Just something to think about!

Answer

No you should not feel guilty! It is your body, your choice and your life. Many of these people here talking about the cuteness and beauty of babies are most likely people PAID by anti-abortion organizations whose one goal is to make women feel like crap for choosing to LIFE, that is to say choosing to LIVE their own LIFE.
Parenthood is really, really hard in the best of situations where you have a good income and a supportive family. Do what your heart tells you is right for you. 
Someone else mentioned All-options, tel:1-888-493-0092 they provide non-biased support where you can talk with a counselor about what is right for you. 
At 15 weeks most clinics in the US will be able to offer you an abortion. There are fewer clinics which offer abortions after 15weeks but most states in the US have at least a few clinics that go up to at least 20/24 weeks. 
Feel free to ask any questions you want. I am a physician who provides abortions and there are a few people who monitor and post on this forum who work for abortion clinics. We will give non-biased information, so feel free to ask. In the end it is your decision and in the end you will need to sit down and ask yourself am I ready to be a parent or not? No one can answer that question for you but you. Sending you lots of love and support!!!!

Answer

Do what you feel is right for YOU. Don't let anyone else make the decision for you. I had an abortion at 22 weeks. My doctor tried to discourage me and kept pushing for the adoption route. I knew this wasn't the right decision for me and even though it was hard, I terminated my pregnancy. It's an overwhelming process but in the end if it is what you truly want, then follow your heart. Don't ever feel guilty for doing what is best for you.

Answer

You could go with abortion but I personally wouldn't. I had to have one done at 15 1/2 weeks due to medical issues with he baby and it was the worst experience of my life. Adoption is so much better you would give them a better life to a couple who has struggled for years to have there own child. You'd be making there biggest dream come true.

Answer

No one says you have to feel guilty. Call up your local clinic or Planned Parenthood to make an appointment to discuss your options. 
You can also call up the All-Options talkline, which Planned Parenthood recommends on their site, to talk to someone and sort out your thoughts. https://www.all-options.org/find-support/talkline/
Do what is best for you. Only you know your situation.

Answer

go to your local clinic/planned parenthood and consult with a doctor.
