Considering an abortion and I need advice.

So I have up until this point been against abortion to some extent but recently I have been thinking more and more about it and i'm thinking it might be my only realistic option. I have son who is a year and a half and will be 2 a day before this baby is due. Me and my now ex fiance have been together almost 3 years and friends before that. We have been through so much together, and since our son was born we have struggled to make ends meet. About 6 months ago I finally was able to get a job and a house for us and we got on our feet, since then my boss has cut my hours dramatically and we had to have a roomate move in (one of Jojo's friends). Long story short he got me pregnant on purpose, yes I am aware that I should have not been so ignorant as to even give him that option. Now I am 13 weeks and 3 days and he has decided he doesn't want a family and I am going to be moving into a one bedroom appartment for $375 a month and only make $600. Pluss the $200 in child support and I am worried about if I am going to be able to care for this baby.

Do what is best for you & your son in your current situation mama.

so he just peaced out? well then if you think you can do it then i say have the abortion

I wish you the best in finding what is right for you and your son right now!

I'm not usually for abortion either, but I think that if you really feel like keeping the baby will take from your ability to care for your son then do what you have to do..

the best advice I can give you is to follow your heart, not your finances right now. Your job situation can change but if you aren't sure about giving this baby up, you may regret it for the rest of your life.

have you considered allowing an adoption? if your job situation isn't better by the time you give birth, you could always give the baby up for adoption.

Money situations are temporary. I'm sure you will get a better job or more hours soon and you would make enough then. abortions are permanent solutions to a temporary problem. Good luck and please make a fully informed decision.

If I were you my mindset would be this.

1.) You already have an LO to take care of. How will THAT baby be affected financially from another.
2.) I would not want to put 2 children in hurt when I can barely support 1.
3.) Do not count on child support AT ALL in this equation.

wow  

Thats awful.
You need to do what is best for you and your child(ren)

best of luck

You've got to do whats right for you and your child that's already here.
Good luck mama <3

I totally agree...

Good luck OP.

tuff love is hard but do what u feel is right... think long and hard, so u dont end up regreting anything. best of wishes

I think that doing what is best for you and your son is the best choice. If you simply can't do it, and it will negatively affect the one you already have, then abortion may very well be your best option.
