Thank you everyone for your thoughts and comments. I believe my boyfriend and I are both going to keep it and love it, regardless of the struggles it may be to take care of a baby and still work and go to school. I know it will be different once I see it's face. And yes, I am going for an ultrasound a week from today!

Aww thats great. Good luck!

This is the post I left for the question "Should I keep my baby?" asked by another woman on here (you should read the advice others have left for her as well). Of course your situation is a little different b/c you are with the baby's father so some of this may not aplpy to you:

Had it been my father's choice, I would have been aborted. But my mother refused to go through will it, despite his advice (He too left her when he found out she was pregnant). Her life wasn't always easy as a single parent, but she made it work for me. I know that when she looks at me, she is so thankful for the choice that she made. I promise I am not judging you, I just want to share my heart. Abortion is murder, period (this may make some people angry, but children in the womb are very much alive, so it is true). When I looked at my son on the ultrasound (he wasn't even an inch long yet) for the first time, I remember thinking "Wow, that's a little human being in there!". A child has a heartbeat after just 7 days. Have you listened to the baby's heartbeat or seen the child on the ultrasound yet? It is amazing & I advice that you experience it. Not to metion, allow the baby the right for you to watch it moving around, pulling it's tiny hands to it's mouth & being ALIVE! I believe that God is the only one who should decide if a human being's life is to be taken, not us. I know your situation is so hard, and it breaks my heart that this has happened to you. This is a decision you cannot take back if you go through with it though. I believe it is one you would regret as well. There is always the option of adoption if you really do not want to be a parent. There are plenty of wonderful people waiting on adoption lists & praying for a child to love & care for. If you don't want to raise the baby yourself, then allow someone else the privilege of doing so (you can choose to stay in contact with them or not). One of my very best friends was in your exact situation. She chose to keep her son & is raising him on her own. She told me recently that though she wished things could have been different, she would not trade her son for anything in the world. She was afraid of being a bad mother, but she is an excellent mom! Also know that in later years, my mother did remarry. My Step-father has became the most excellent grand-father to my son. So know that this current situation can change altogether in years to come & you may not be alone raising your child. When I look at my husband & son (& I am pregant with our second child) I am grateful to my mother for choosing to give me the chance to live. I hope you do the same for the precious gift growing inside of you. I wish you (& the baby) wonderful, happy lives. God bless.

p.s-My sympathies are with you in your situation. Know that God can heal all things if you allow Him to.

p.p.s--Don't let this baby's father's bad choice cause this child not to live. That's not fair to the baby or to you. (I want to add that recently my father & I have made amends. He has apologized & truely regrets walking out on me. Through God's help, I have forgiven my father & we are working on building a relationship from here. It's taken a long time, but as I said: God can heal ALL things! And I have a wonderful life, despite my past.) You would be suprised at the difference that a loving mother can make!!!!!!!

That's what I wrote , let me add more just for you: I know that you are 19 & have alot going on right now, but this baby is NOT a mistake. God obviously intended for it to live, or it would not be growing inside of you. Yes, the timing is not good for you, but you must look past this & think of this innocent child who had no part in it's own conception. Abortion is selfish & cruel. I believe that if you are willing to have sex, then you should be willing to raise a child. You have no idea what God has planned for this baby's life or for yours & you will never know if you do not give this baby a chance. It's not fair to kill the baby (sorry to sound harsh, but that's what abortion is). Do not make a decision that will haunt you for the rest of your life. If you really do not want the baby, let someone who does adopt the child & allow him or her the chance to LIVE (just as you were given this chance). I believe that you will find out that you are stronger than you think if you give yourself time. I wouldn't trade being a mom for the world! I also live for the little kicks that I am feeling as I write to you. You are in my prayers. Please make the decision to let your baby live. God Bless you, your boyfriend & the blessing inside of you.

I just want to say that the abortion video that was posted is the most disgusting and most disturbing video I have ever seen in my entire life.

Yes, I agree with the above comment, it is very disgusting and disturbing. Yet women are going through with that everyday and killing their unborn babies. If women could see that video and actually see what is going to be done, if they have a heart at all, they would think twice.

well... Im 18 and Im pregnant. Im also living with my boyfriend at his mom's house, I was just as afraid and frustrated as u are! when I found out I was pregnant I cried so much... I didnt want the baby, I even thought about aborting it! and I also thought... why is god doing this to me? thing is we cant blame him, and we need to be old enough to take responsability for each n every one of our actions. we're not babies anymore. I told my mom I was pregnant at 2 about to go on 3 months... telling your mom n family is a big thing too... u think-what are they gonna think about me n much more.talk about it with your boyfriend,a baby is a beautiful thing and I regret thinking that I wanted to kill it.
