re: I never thought I'd actually consider an abortion until now.

Yes, my financial situation could change. Thats the reason I'm kind of on the fence. I know how devastated I was when I had a miscarriage let alone if I caused one of my babies to die. I think the hardest part is going to be dealing with my parents reaction being that I had to move back home when I lost my job. My dad wasn't going to speak to me again because of a tattoo, now I'm pregnant again and I'm almost 100% he's not going to handle it well at all. He had no choice but to accept the fact that I was pregnant with my daughter at 16.

Sit down and think about it maybe do a pro and cons list and see if abortion is really what you want or not.

I think I'll do that. thanks

Agreed

Best wishes OP

I've been thinking of getting an abortion too. I wish you the best in whatever you decide.

thank you. I wish the best for you as well.

I posted on this myself not long ago. I was always pro life.
After finding out that I was pregnant for a second time (my son was only six months old), while already suffering with PND and in a poor financial situation with no stable relationship, I was forced to consider abortion.
I have gone through beating myself up everyday. Telling myself that I am committing a murder. Looking at my son with overwhelming guilt that I am putting an end to a life that could be just as amazing as him.
But then I've weighed it up against the posibility of me going through with a pregnancy and not being able to cope and losing both children simply because I couldn't live with the guilt of giving one up.

With that in mind, yesterday I went to the clinic and took the pill.
I'm still not sure how I feel. Tomorrow I am going back for the second dose.

Good luck with what ever you decide to do.

I'm so sorry. I hope everything turns out for the best for you and your son. I wanted to take the pill because I felt like I wouldn't feel as bad because it seems more like a miscarriage than anything and I could deal with that easier but I also found out yesterday that I'm too far along for it. Well I panicked and ended up telling my mom and she told everyone else. My dad isn't talking to me and doesn't want to be around me but in some strange way I feel like I can do this now because everyone else is supportive emotionally. I'm sorry you had to make that decision. best wishes<3

i had an abortion with my second pregnancy (in 2005) and it was a very hard decision. it was a planned/wanted pregnancy. but soon after we concieved my ex husband began to beat me. i left him, but was terrified when his mother started threatening to take my unborn child away. at the time i was young and when i left him, i left my home and job as well. i saw no other option. i struggled with my decision to abort and was very depressed for about a yea. but looking back now, i feel that i did make the right decision, i was able to recover and am now in a wonderful relationship and expecting a second little girl. with the decsion i made, i was able to pick up the pieces and create a great life for my daughter and i. i don't even want to begin to imagine where my life would be if i still had ties to that man. even though i don't regret my decision nowadays, i do still sometimes think about that baby.....and it is sad. but i don't think i could have provided my daughter with a proper childhood had i not. (my ex husband was not my daughters father). think about the future and what you feel is right for you.....no one else can know for certain......i respect you're decision either way as should everyone else (especially those who care for you. good luck sweetie
