Should I keep my baby?

Why were you not able to terminate by pill? I thought that was what it was mainly for, early pregnancy. Just curious. Everyone has the right to choose, I would involve the hubby. How much time is he willing to sacrifice for baby's care and giving you a break?

Since it sounds like your husband and you have a stable income, i think you should keep the baby. Reason why, Is because there is never a correct time for anyone to have a baby. Your married which is a good thing, means a stable relationship. It also looks like you have a stable home to live in which is a good thing, means your not living with mommy and daddy. I was 17 when I got pregnant with my now 2yr old son. I finished High school and now am in college. You can finish your education and have a successful career while being pregnant, and being a mother. It will be extra work but if I can handle it at 17 so can you. The lord above doesnt give us babies if we couldnt handle it.

No one can truly answer this question but you.

Having kept 2 scary un-planned pregnancies, and being completely in love with my kids, I would advise keeping the baby. I don't know anyone who would give up their kids, but I unfortunately do know 1 woman who has had a terrible time coming to terms with the pregnancy she terminated. Not all women react that way.

I would also really recommend making this decision with your husband. He is the father of the baby, and you would not want resentment over this decision to hurt your marriage. Good open communication is a good thing no matter what you end up deciding. I would advise that you decide it together.

I know lots of moms who have finished their degrees after having kids. Its totally possible. Harder, yes, but its possible.

I am so, so grateful that I kept my babies, even though at the time I was scared to death.

Those initial feelings of fear, upset, dread and being totally overwhelmed really do let up. I would spend a lot of time thinking about it and talking to your husband about it.. You can not undo an abortion after it has happened. (((hugs)))

I know it seems like a tough decision, this is only a decision you can make...however, my opinion is biased because I am very pro-life and extremely against abortions. It sounds to me like you have a wonderful, stable environment for starting a family, the only thing lacking is whether you are willing to jump on the band wagon. Seriously consider this. You may not finish school as quickly, but you can always work your schedule around the baby and with your husband having a steady income you an even afford to have someone come help with the baby during any large school projects or finals weeks etc.

You are the only one that can decide what is most important to you.

It's up to you and you alone. I once had an unplanned pregnancy. I did not have the financial or emotional security and decided to abort. I don't regret it. It was the right choice. But I know if I had the financial (your husbands income) and emotional ( husband) support I would have kept it in a heart beat.

After that I vowed never to be in such a situation again and went on to get a doctorate.

An abortion is not an easy decision to make. Babies are blessings. But do what's best for you.

That would be selfish to terminate when you all have ahold income together and can provide for the child. I went to college and got my BA, about to start my Masters online and have six children. If your husband wants the baby and is willing to step in and help you as much as possible, I wouldn't even consider an abortion. It almostvsounds selfish. You will have to live with either decision forever. I would rather live with the one that includes all the joys and milestones of watching my baby grow instead of seeing children on the street and thinking my baby woul have been that size now.

i feel like life throws curve balls for a reason, i would keep your baby especially since it was created out of love. if you want to finish your degee you will your young enough to do both but i would put your family first. whatever you decide think about it for awhile. good luck!

I think that if your husband wants the baby and you abort it, you are aborting your marriage. Just because he says he'll support your decision doesn't mean he'll want to have sex with you again after you kill his kid. I couldn't stand having sex with someone, risk having another child with someone that's just going to kill it.
