I'm Currently Feeling: | 17, pregnant, abortion? I'm 17, I've been with my boyfriend who's 20 just over 10 months and it's serious, we're mad about eachother and obviously sleeping together. I did a home pregnancy test last night and it showed up positive, I told my boyfriend straight away n we went to the doctors this morning. The first thing we decided was to have an abortion because of our situation. If I told my mum I was pregnant, I'll get kicked out without a doubt and have no family support at all, my boyfriend is off to University next month, I'm only in a part time job earning £140-£220 a month and also about to start my last year of college. My boyfriend doesn't want this to ruin us and we made the choice to have an abortion so I'm just waiting for the right time to made that phone call to book it... but at the moment, I'm having serious doubts and don't know what to do, I don't want to ruin our lives and I know we won't be able to give it the life it needs but please help!!! xxx | | | | Status: Offline

I'm Currently Feeling: | You can't have an abortion if you don't really want it. Seriously, you just need to think about what your heart wants. Everything else will sort itself out. I'm pretty sure your mum would suprise you too. How do you know she wouldn't support you? |

I'm Currently Feeling: | Hi hunni, if your having serious doubts please take some more time to think, it's a huge decision. How far along does ur doctor think you are? As far as ur mum is concerned, sometime parents say things when ur growing up to discourage a situation, but if it arrises they can be completly different. I don't know your mum but she may well suprise u. Hope things work out.  |

If you don't want it, try not to convince yourself you do. Your hormones are racing. You have the rest of your life to have a baby with your boyfriend. If you don't want it, don't keep it. However, if you do want it, and you believe you can do it, nothing else matters. Everything else will sort itself out. |
