Please choose adoption! There are thousands of loving families waiting for a baby. Don't stop a beating heart just for a man. Let the baby live, give a wonderful gift to a waiting family, and get on with your life if you want. Best of luck, I'll be thinking of you!

Your baby already has a heartbeat, and is formed. For you to consider aborting your flesh and blood over a man is beyond selfish! Put the baby up for adoption! Abortion is murder!!!!

Having sex engages at least two people. So it's also your responsibility to your baby. It will be hard on you to have an abortion at 9 weeks. But if you don't want the baby,  there is no time to waste. Think about yourself and the environment you will bring the baby in, then decide. I don't think you should count on the father for further input. Abortion will not guarantee his staying with you either. You are more likely to be by yourself in this pregnancy. So are you ready to take care of your 4 kids by yourself??? Did you love him more than yourself and your kids????

I think you answered your own question by saying 'I don't want one'. Go with your instincts. I was a single mum for years and my children are always there and always a joy. I don't know where I'd be without them. Their father would probably have left anyway. It sounds like an excuse on his part. If it's not this, it's going to be something else.

If he didn't want you to get pregnant, he should have used a condom.  He needs to grow up, you have sex, you face the responsibility. Keep your baby, tell him to take a hike.

Think about yourself and what you want. If terminating the pregnancy is what you want, then go ahead.  And obviously you all knew each other well enough to have sex so that's not really a good excuse.

Think of that beautiful baby growing in you womb. You may decide to have an abortion and he can still leave, then you really going to live with regrets.  He should maned up and take responsibility.

Are you really going to kill your baby for some guy? He sounds like a total jerk. I'd tell him to either get used to the fact that you're staring a family together or tell him to get lost.
