18 and pregnant? I'm not ready

Ok well I'm already 8 days late on my period, I'm scared that I am pregnant, should I go for a pregnancy test to be sure? I know I'm not ready to be a mom, but I do know I want to be one some day. And if I am, I don't know what to do, keep it or get an abortion. I have no idea what to expect. I'm scared, knowing I won't have anyone there for me through a pregnancy. What do I do? Get a pregnancy test? Let it be?  If its positive do I keep it or let it go?

Honestly it's your choice. People can tell you what to do but at the end you pick what to do. Girl! Use protection next time lol but look I'm 18 and I'm 27 weeks pregnant. Me and my husband wanted to wait at least 3 years or mOre but oh we'll it happen. However I am married, finish school, and have my own house. But me personally I am 100% against abortion. Of you don't want that poor innocent child that hasn't even had a choice to live give it up for abortion. But look of I can do it being as young as I am you can as well and there are other young moms that can support you in any way. But like I said its all up to you. Good luck

Agreed,  You Should Of Used Protection ; Your 18 & I Just Turned 17 & I'm 4 Months Pregnant With A BabyBoy & I Know I'm Super Young To Have A Baby But It Has No Fault,  I Am Against Abortion Maybe Consider Adoption?  But Its Your Decision. You Could Get Thru It If Your Pregnant Just Take A Test & Get Outa Doubt Maybe Its Negative (:
Wish You Luck Girl.

Go take a test! What if you're not even pregnant and your period is just late because your stressing about being pregnant? Save yourself some stress. If you are pregnant you need to know right away anyways so you can get good prenatal care or if you plan to terminate the pregnancy its best to do it early. OR if you need time to think about it you will have more time to decide.
