I am on nexplanon and my boyfriend and I use condoms on top of that so imagine how surprised I am that I still somehow got pregnant today. My boyfriend (of 7 years) wants to keep the baby but is not willing to quit school to take care of the baby. I want an abortion because I am in my 2nd year of medical school to become a plastic surgeon, and I know having a baby or even being pregnant will ruin my chances at this school because of how competitive it is. I know it may make me a bad person but I've worked so hard to get into this school and I only have 2 years left till I can start my 6 years of residency. I wont have time to care for a baby and I think i would regret it if i gave up everything i have worked for. I know there is adoption too but that will set me back as well having to take time of which is nearly forbidden in medical school will get me me kicked out. I really want an abortion but I know it's just as much my boyfriends baby as it is mine and I dont know what to do.

I am almost 7 weeks my doctor said if I get my nexplanon out the baby may be okay (high miscarriage rate with nexplanon) i have an appointment to get it out Thursday so I'd like to decide before then.

Ps. I know I'm gonna get alot of hate for this but I'm trying to do what's best for our future I just dont really know what that is. I know in the end it is mine and my boyfriends choice I just want some opinions. Sorry if this is all over the place

I thought it may be worth mentioning we dont have any family that supports us and while we are both in school. (Boyfriend is in his 4th year of aeronautical engineering) we make absolutely 0 money other than $200 a month for food
