Crazy ex

Hello everyone, I'm 22, 6 weeks pregnant and I'm a first time mum :)... Before this I had been pregnant twice but my partner at the time expressed that he wasn't ready and begged me to terminate the pregnancy and so I did. Both abortions left me extremely depressed to the point where I tried to kill myself after the second one, mostly because I Iove children and have always wanted to be a mother. Once again, I found myself pregnant and I'm extremely happy about it. But my partner has been trying to convince me for the last week to terminate it and I have refused. I've told him what happened with me after the last one and he has then told me he has a court case next week and is looking at 2 years in prison. I still don't want an abortion and he has resorted to sending all of his friends to call me to try and convince me. He has tried everything from telling me that he will never be there for me or the child or love us to attacking my character as a mother. Still, I am determined to keep this baby. But I have to admit, that what some of what he said stuck and I'm scared I'll be in it alone or if I'm ready. I just need some encouragement so I know I'm doing the right thing. Thanks guys x

Keep your baby if that's what you want to do. Never let anyone talk you into doing anything that you don't want to do. You're truly blessed being able to still get pregnant. Sometimes getting abortions can cause infertility due to  all the scarred tissue down there. Just something to think about if you do decide to have another one done!

Keep your baby, it's growing inside you so it's up to you if u want to keep the baby, not his. You will never be alone, there will always be support for you whether it's from.family or from antenatal groups. You can do this, don't let anyone.tell you different.xx

I had a baby at 15 and he is now 17 and I've done it alone. Don't let anyone tell you that "you can't". As women " we will". Good luck and God Bless.

Someone who would ask for abortion doesn't love you and doesn't plan on sticking around. :( Props to you, keep baby, and you can and,will very much do it on your own! :)

Even the nicest guys who are not ready will say the scariest things when it comes to them wanting you to get an abortion. He is probably extremely scared right now. With some time he most likely will come around and realize he's being ridiculous. We fear the unknown.

But you should keep your baby no matter what. You're gonna be a great mother. You could do it without his support. Know what you want and how you feel. You're in control of your body and actions, so do what you think is best.

I had an abortion back in 2007 because my bf at the times sister inlaw ripped my as for being pregnant and blah blah blah. He didnt want it either. I really wanted the baby but i wanted him to. I chose him. I regret my choice every day and and when i got with my current bf i told him if i ever got pregnant with him I wont give the up on my baby this time. I hurt for a long time giving up my last one but I lived and learned and am excited to be expecting again with a supportive bf and family.

You dont need a man to help you raise you child well. I wouldnt recommend doing anything you dont want to do and if hes going to be a dead beat dad just let him because your child can learn the best from you. One day a real man may come into your life and take your child as their own. Then and only then will your child have a father/real man who will love your child blood or not!

Good Luck!!!

Leave him in the dust honey... You never know if you'll be able to get pregnant again after each abortion... He obviously doesn't love you as much as you love him he should feel honored and blessed that a woman wants to carry his baby. If he didn't want the child he should've used protection. It's not right to keep having these abortions for this man when someone would give their lives to even get pregnant. Let him rot in the jail cell he doesn't care obviously about your state of mind or health...

Keep your baby!! Don't let anyone decide what you want to do with your baby! And if you do it alone then so be it. There are plenty of single mothers out there that do it everyday and you can too!! You keep getting pregnant for a reason, you'll be a great mum!
