Not at all!

When I found out I was pregnant, my initial thought was 'I better book in,' then I remembered I had a boyfriend to tell and it was his decision just as much. I told him, and his reaction was the same as mine. So we talked about it, and talked some more. But soon realised, this was an actual baby. Something we'd created, together. How could we kill it? So..19 weeks later.

I only found out last night, but to be honest the thought never crossed my mind, no one asked me if i was planning an adoption or abortion, but i wasn't anyway lol

It was a pretty simple decision for me, both me and my partner were over the moon when we first found out i was pregnant, so even when my mum brought up abortion it was a straight no. Definately always knew I was going to keep my baby, to be honest, I don't think I would mentally be able to deal with putting her up for adoption or aborting her anyway.

ive always said i would never have one
but when i saw the positive test
it DID cross my mind for months
i thought about different options
i thought she would be better off
with someone else ... who would love
her more - i wasn't very attached to
my bump until i hit 3rd tri - but now i
know no one could love her more
than her own mother!!

emily is now nearly 6 weeks old
and im sooooo glad i didn't
shes a bit of a monkey but i cant
image life without her!!

I just found out that I'm pregnant a few days ago. I still don't know what I'm going to do. Every option has crossed my mind. The main reason is because right now I can't bring myself to tell anyone. It's like, "I wish there was a way for this to go away and for nobody to know." I feel horrible thinking that. It's just that I wasn't planning to have a baby now (or anytime soon), I'm not excited about it, and well, I guess I'm still just dealing with the shock and initial feelings of finding out.
