I'm pregnant! What should I do?

Question

First and foremost, I'm so sorry for the soon to be and want to be moms out there. 
I took a pregnancy test today and it came out positive. If I was somewhere else in life financially I would be jumping for joy, but I'm not. I just graduated undergrad at 27, and I'm looking to start my career in education. My long term boyfriend just landed a decent job but it requires him to travel a lot. There is a lot going on that must be organized before we bring a human into this world. We are not ready to have a baby! 
My mind is clouded. I don't know if having the baby is the best way to go. Thoughts?

Accepted Answer

You should’ve been using protection if you weren’t ready.

Answer

Adoption! Make someone else’s dreams come true.

Answer

Honestly babies are a blessing and sometimes can help a lot. They come when you least expect it and this could possibly be the best thing that could happen to your family. I mean it is your decision, whether to keep the baby or not. But you should really think your options through. Because the same thing happened to me and my boyfriend. I just got a job from graduating school, and my boyfriend just got a decent job that requires traveling also. And i wanted to keep the baby because i believe everything happens for a reason. Don’t get me wrong we were scared at first, i mean I’m only 21. But now we’re more excited then ever because no matter what a job is always gonna be there but this baby could be the best thing that ever happened! Just consider your options! Good luck!

Answer

I have two children and pregnant with my third while working full time and in NP school. My husband and I both have successful careers and there’s never been a “right time” for us to have kids but here we are and you make it work. I wouldn’t trade my blessings for anything.

Answer

Take a deep breath, calm yourself, sit down speak with your bf, speak to your families. They say it take a village to raise a child. Lean on your support system, if there isn't a support system then take you next steps into what you want for you and your future. But children are a great blessing but huge responsibility..take your time. Good luck. Keep us updated if you wouldn't mind. Be blessed.

Answer

I'm pregnant with my third and none were planned. My first one I was 16 when I got pregnant. If you don't feel like you are ready place the child for adoption and give someone else the chance to love him/her and raise it.

Answer

I don’t understand why someone who tries for so long cannot have a baby, (myself included) but someone who doesn’t want a baby and would even consider aborting their baby gets pregnant without even trying. 💔😭
I promise you, there are people out there who DESPERATELY want a baby, and they would love to have yours and cherish yours the way that your baby deserves to be loved and cherished.

Answer

If you aren’t going to keep it yourself, please, PLEASE let someone adopt it. It could be the baby another couple has been praying for for years! I know it won’t be easy but it will be totally worth it.

Answer

Just take some time to think things through
