please don’t get an abortion. everything happens for a reason. if you don’t think you can handle a baby or don’t want your baby go for adoption. there s someone out there who cannot have a baby and would give anything to adopt a baby, your baby! please pray about it and consider your options, don’t do anything without thinking a lot about it. praying for you always.

ive never been …
ive never been pregnant to give good advice but it must be a really tough decision..
but i will say this: dont take on a big responsibilty if you know your boyfriend and yourself cant do it. it may harm your relationship..
but if you think you can take it on, go for it..i think youll be a good mom!
good luck doll *hugs*

I’ve actually been …
I’ve actually been having these dreams for a LONG time, though. Hmm… maybe the hormones of being a teenager???? How sad. I hate being subject to the symptoms of the “teenage years” even though I feel a lot more mature than that.

THATS GREAT, HUN! I’m trying really hard not to, either.

Take care x
…if I was your friend and you decided to abort it or feel it was better suitable for adoption I would not think any less of you. Perhaps write down the negative and positive points for each option? Maybe give you a clearer picture? Also that’s AMAZING you haven’t b/p in 3 months. I’ve only managed three days so far but that’s progress for me.

You are gorgeous! …
You are gorgeous! You do not look any ‘fatter’ to me. Whatever decision you make will be the right one. It’s up to you and your boyfriend. You’re not like any other teenage girl, I’m sure there’s a lot of people you have come across that have been pregnant but might not want to mention their abortion. I’ve found out this within the few years. If you believe you can love the baby and be a good mother I would say keep it…

I adore you and know you are intelligent enough to make the decision that is right for you life no matter how hard it will be (and ANY of the options will be hard) — much love.

And also - your …
And also - your dreams are NORMAL. I had dreams like that ALL THE TIME when I was pregnant. It’s your hormones. If you ever need someone to talk to, someone who’s been through all of this (including binging), I’m always here to talk. <3

(ran out of room) I don’t regret my decision…but I do wish I could see what my life would be like had I not had him or had given him up. I wasn’t ready. Though my then-boyfriend stuck around, and we got married…right now we’re living at my parents because we can’t afford not to. Parenting is hard, but it’s rewarding. He’s the light of my life, my reason to get up every day. Whichever decision you make, you’ll adapt to it.
February 2nd, 2010 at 1:26 am
You said it …
You said it yourself. “I care too much about what people think of me”. It’s true, and it’s true for most people. You should do what you think is right. I was in your situation a couple of years ago (though I wasn’t as young - I was 23). My boyfriend and I moved in together, I got pregnant 2 months later, and we didn’t know what to do. I ended up keeping the baby, and now he’s 13 months old. It’s a huge challenge every single day and my life is totally different than what it would have been.

wow! i will …
wow! i will certainly keep you in my prayers. congrats on not bingeing for 3 months

I think the best …
I think the best option is abortion. I know it’s a very awful thing and it definitely isn’t the best option, but you are NOT ready for a baby. Adoption is a possibility, but are you really ready for pregnancy? Take your time and think about whether you will be able to do all that you want with a pregnancy and baby factored in. Some say that you’ll go to for abortion, but I believe that God is merciful and loving. Despite what some people say, abortion is not an easy way out. Best wishes.

@yamiblue990 okay …
@yamiblue990 okay well all im saying is talk to someone who has had one or look at stats about the mental after effects of abortions on people who are not 100% SURE that they want one. If you have any doubt in your mind or even if you are 100% sure it is traumatizing. I’m not gonna go into my life story with you or the life stories of people I know, but I would know that it is. I’m not saying its not very hard to give a baby up but an open adoption might not be as traumatizing as abortion
February 2nd, 2010 at 1:26 am
wow, I certainly …
wow, I certainly didn’t expect that. This is a very difficult decision to face, yes, but I suppose life in general just throws all these sorts of issues at us unexpectedly. I’m with those who say that you must go with the decision that’s best for YOU, whatever that may be. It is your life and it will affect you the most, even though it may affect your family too….but still try not to worry about what other people will think of you. Do what’s right for you. Also, glad the E.D. has lessened. x

@ stephy198920011 …
@ stephy198920011 abortions aren’t nearly as hard on a person as having a child and giving it up since statistically more then half of all pregnancies are miscarried before the time limit for an abortion is reached and more are miscarried or stillborn afterwards. in fact most of the so called trauma people feel horrible about afterwards is because of the people around them demonizing their choice to be responsible and not bring a kid into the world that they can’t take care of.

Babies are a thing …
Babies are a thing of life; they’re a wonderful thing to create with the one you love.
Aborting is similar to purging. Let it do its thing, in its own time, and nurture it. : ) I think it’s symbolic that you have not been binging or purging in the past 3 months.
Best of luck in your choice! You have love and support no matter what you do.
February 2nd, 2010 at 1:26 am
The thing is is …
The thing is is that its your baby- not ur dads. What happened happened and you cannot go back in time. Keep the baby because dont do what youre dad wants because you would regret it forever
February 2nd, 2010 at 1:26 am
right!!

I agree, this baby is gonna be the cutest baby ever! lol

OH and PS I also …
OH and PS I also strugged with an ED and had the SAME dreams and have the same fears about my bf. I think it has to do with how the ED messed with our heads and caused our self esteem to plummet. I think we are both lucky to have such patient loving bfs. Good luck with everything<3

You would have a …
You would have a gorgeous baby Don’t abort it if you’re not 100% sure. If there is any way that you could give it a good loving home keep it or if not give it up for adoption. BUT …. do what you feel is right. Either of the three options you have to be 100% sure. If your family will help you raise it and give it the best home you can then keep it. If not I agree with the other comment about an open adoption. If you are 100% sure you want an abortion then do what you feel is right<3best of luck
February 2nd, 2010 at 1:26 am
@yamiblue990 …
@yamiblue990 abortions are traumatizing too, a lot of people feel horrible all throughout their lives afterwards. but any option is hard I’m not saying that one is better than the other I’m just saying they are traumatizing also. Trust me.
February 2nd, 2010 at 1:26 am
please don’t have …
please don’t have an abortion. give the child a chance to live and have a life of its own. i suggest you give it up for adoption. if you kill your baby, you could live with regret for the rest of your life and you don’t want that.
