Had a miscarriage 4 months ago, pregnant again but boyfriend doesnt want it this time. What to do?
Back in June i had a miscarriage i am 19 and my boyfriend is 20 we were devastated, well i know i definately was and i am still upset now about it. But i found out today that i am pregnant again, and when i told my boyfriend he said " well we can get you the pill from doctors to get rid of it " i am so upset as it was only 6 months ago that i was pregnant and my boyfriend really wanted the baby with me, but now im pregnant again he says he is too young and i got to get rid of it, but i dont understand how he can say that when he didnt say that when i was pregnant before. I am just really scared because it isnt ideal that i have fallen pregnant again now because i dont have a job now whereas before i did. But i dont want an abortion as it is horrible. My boyfriend just says we have no money and i got to get rid. But it is easy for him to say that, as it not his body- he doesnt seem to understand that it is my body that he is talking about. I just dont know what to do.

Oh, don't get an abortion. You'll regret it if you do!Everyone I have ever know that got an abortion, regretted it.
Your boyfriend doesn't have to want it. It's your body. And the baby is just as much yours as it is his. If he can't deal with it, then break up with him, as hard as it might be. He will still have to pay child support whether he wants the baby or not. He isn't being supportive at all!
Just try to get a job in the mean time. Something that won't require heavy lifting or strenuous activity. You can take a maternity leave when the baby comes.
Go to the doctor and get your prenatal care. Focus on the baby and everything will be alright.
While it is not ideal, there are government programs to help people in your situation. WIC will give you free formula (formula if you don't breastfeed, if you do breastfeed, they give you free milk, carrots, cheese, eggs, cereal, etc). Welfare will help you find a job, give you food stamps, and even a daycare voucher when the baby is born. They will even pay for some schooling to get you a higher paying job to get you off welfare Of course, the goal IS to get off welfare and support yourself, but it can give you a boost if you really need the help.
Good luck, you have lots of support systems if you look for them!

I am so sorry you are going though this. I had a miscarriage in March and it was the hardest thing I have ever gone though. My boyfriend said we would try again, but then decided he didn't want to have a child but I was already pregnant. We just didn't know yet. Once I told him I was pregnant he had a similar reaction as your boyfriend. But I am 24 and he is almost 27. I told him that this is what happened and the only way this baby was coming out was for me to either have another miscarriage or it was going to be born if he didn't like it he didn't have to stay around for it. I am currently 19 weeks pregnant and we are still together. He is coming around. Just give him time. If you want this baby then keep it, DO NOT have an abortion just because he wants you too. If he loves you enough he will stick by you, and if he leaves he wasn't worth it in the first place. You can do this on your own if you have to. Once you see your baby moving around on ultrasound then feel it moving around inside you, you will know you made the right choice. There has never been a more amazing feeling for me then feeling my baby move and knowing that everything is going to be ok. Just give him some time. the initial shock will wear off and his true feelings will show through. Good Luck and I hope you make the right choice for YOU!

You sit down and talk to him about it, and let him know that it is your decision and he can either be there to support you, or not. Having a baby is not easy, but he should have thought about the consequences before you started having sex. If you can't handle the responsibility, then you shouldn't be having sex. Sounds like you have a tough road ahead of you; don't be afraid to seek counseling. Planned parenthood has some great resources, or talk with your regular doctor for a good referral to counselor.
If it's money he's worried about, there are many resources that you can go to for help. WIC, food stamps, medicare etc. You have a tough road ahead of you, the important thing is that you stick to your beliefs and do what is best for you; he'll be along for the ride if he's the right one for you. Best of luck, and I'm sorry you have to be in this situation.
