Abortion?

Question

I'm 11 weeks pregnant and my boyfriend and I are still together. He says he's not sure if he wants a kid because of our financial situation. Our house is just a small 2 bedroom and we can't afford to get anything bigger. We both have one additional child each.  He's suggesting I get an abortion but he willing to accept it if I dont. It's 50/50 for me. I want the kid but I don't want this child to suffer and have to go without.  Please can I have some honest advice.

Answer

This is a question only you can answer. A bunch of strangers online can't tell you whether or not to keep your baby. Sorry but this one is on you.

Answer

Your financial situation doesn't determine your ability to be a good, loving parent to this child. Please think very seriously about this decision. It cannot be undone. Best wishes to you!

Answer

No matter what y'all will find a way to make it work... Before my son I had no job, no car, didn't finish school, didn't have my own house... I was just shit piss poor living in a dirty house.. When I found out I was pregnant I flipped all that around.. Like I said y'all will find a way.. Everything works out in the end. 💖

Answer

Of course it's your choice. In my opinion though I can never imagine having an abortion at 11 weeks. I found out my first child was a boy at just 12 weeks so to me that's a baby, a real little baby in there. Just something to think about.

Answer

In this country I don't think not having a good financial situation is a good reason to abort, not that there is a good reason. But I don't think he would go without, if you're eating I know you won't be like, "sorry there's not enough for you"! We have a saying that says "where 4 can eat, 5 can eat" meaning you can always add more water to the soup for more people to eat. I have 3 kids under 4 and we live in a 1 bedroom apartment and only my husband works (makes $12 an hour), we have no welfare of any kind. You can definitely make it work. Yes it is ultimately up to you but you asked for some helpful opinions and I hope this helps.

Answer

it's entirely up to you and your partner. Honestly I have had 2 previous abortions because at the time I was 18 & I was not ready, financially or mentally and the person I was with (3 years) i knew wasn't going to be the person Id spend my life with. My second abortion was really early on and there were a lot of complications. But the first abortion I had I was 11 weeks pregnant. I had only found out at 10 that I was pregnant, no symptoms, nothing and I didn't even miss a period! I just did a test as I was going through a faze of worrying and was doing them regularly & when it come up positive my heart sank. When I went to my doctors to discuss an abortion on i was told I had a week to make my mind up!!!! (In the UK you can only abort up to 12 weeks, if it's after you have to pay) - I knew at the time it was what I needed to do and I always told myself I would never ever have an abortion but I found myself in a situation where I was in an unhappy and unstable relationship, I didn't have a job that paid anywhere near enough and I lived with my grandparents with no moving out in the near future ahead of me! I had an abortion bevause i knew it was the right thing for me at the time. I was the same amount of weeks as you & this made it very difficult as the doctors kept asking if I was "sure" and I fringe they were disgusted in me! But I had to do it and I don't regret it because a couple months later me and my ex partner split up and I haven't spoke to him since 2 years later! Now I'm in a relationship with a man I see myself with, he sees himself with me, we live in our own place and are in a great position. I'm actually 29 weeks pregnant at the moment & we can't wait to meet our little man! I believe everyone has their reasons for what they do and the only one who can fully understand them is you. Goodluck and I wish you all the best whatever you do 🌻

Answer

This is entirely your decision. If you honestly feel you can't support a family that large than that's okay, but if you think you can then by all means keep the pregnancy. I suggest posting in the abortion room for unbiased advice that focus' for on what is best for you. 
I also think that there are some very polite individuals in the Pro Life room that would have information regarding adoption or parenting. I do think you should leave the asking in the abortion room if that's what you want, but also think that if you are considering keeping the child that you may want to check out the Pro Life group and ask for advice on how to deal with and ford parenting.

Answer

I never believe abortion is the answer but it is also your decision but always remember there are other options other than aborting a child

Answer

Don't abort it, if you feel the child deserves a better life, give him/her up for adoption or have a family member take care of him/her for a while until you feel you can support the child

Answer

Please read that glow has banned abortion topics until Saturday. Honestly though, this is only your desicion. Look into options and do what's best
