If you were faced with an unwanted pregnancy tomorrow, wwyd?

posted 8th Oct

Keep my baby. When I got pregnant with my son I was devastated and so was my boyfriend. My boyfriend and I were talking about breaking up, I had lost my job and was severely depressed. But abortion isn't something we even acknowledge as an option and adoption was out of the question for us, and now we have a beautiful 11 month old son and a little girl on the way. That unwanted pregnancy was the best thing that ever happened to us.

You can still get pregnant while berastfeeding, especially after just having a baby as you are more fertile then. We only use condoms and plan on having our kids being 2 -3 years apart. It's a scary thought for me to have them back to back lol.

That happened to me before and I kept her and figured smurf out. I'd do it again.
I could never have another abortion and I would not give my child away.

Honestly, I have NO smurfing idea what I'd do. I have a 3 1/2 month old so yeah I REALLY do NOT want another...(right now)
1. we are struggling finacially right now,trying to get back on our feet after closing our business 4 months ago.
2. I have a 3 1/2 month by c-sec so becomeing pregnant is very bad health wise
3. that would make baby #4 for me and omfg I'd be pulling my hair out!!! I am overwhelmed enough as it is right now

ALSO, my 5 and 6 yrold daughters are 11 months apart......,so,yeah... that was hell!
But would I abort,give it up, or keep it?...I have no idea. Some things you just never know what you'll do till you are really in that situation and holy hell I hope I never have to face an unwanted/unplanned surprise pregnacy...not now anyways.

Just the thought of me becomeing pregnant now makes me shudder with terror......ugh I need a drink

" I am getting my smurf tied after this one!!!" <<< Is what I want to do, kinda. Sometimes I want to get my tubes tied. bc as of right NOW I am 22 with a 6yrold,5yrold, and a 3month old. As of NOW I don't want anymore but I won't get my tubes ties bc I am scared I may want just ONE more later, but I really don't know. I wish I did know.

Yeah I know. I just kinda heard that it's debatable whether ebf delays ovulation or not but I know it isn't a fool proof way to not get pregnant, which is why I got some real contraception. We're gonna keep everything crossed that I don't end up pregnant anytime soon.

We want a 2-3 year gap also. I just pretty much spent 18 consecutive months pregnant. My body needs ample time to recover.

If I woke up tomorrow and found out I was pregnant, I would continue the pregnancy.

If I woke up during a time when I didn't have the time/money/or any other means to support the child, I would abort.

Abort. Just like I already did once. I wouldn't even have to think twice about it. I'd be calling planned parenthood as soon as that little + popped up. No more bebez for us.

I'm not to a point where I can see myself NOT wanting a baby. I'm sure that day might come one day, but in the meantime... even if we were in a financial slump or whatever, we'd figure it out.
