Pregnancy or Abortion?

I am 8 weeks pregnant, and I really do not want to have  this baby. But I am not 100% sure if I want to have an abortion. I do not want to put up for an adoption.  I already have 2 small children by 2 different dads. I just feel so bad that I made this mistake once again. I will be a single mother for the 3rd time.  Any advice. Should I have this baby or not?

I'd have an abortion. Don't worry bout what anyone else says. Your kids will question why they have different dads. And not fair on them if knee lets em down. Iv had 2 abortions one at 9 and one at 11 week. I felt guilty at time but was right thing at time. I'm 26 and expecting baby number 5.. all same dad. Mistakes happen but I done have to suffer I'd reckoned abortion and extreme precautions after so not to happen again good luck. Don't worry

for women who are not able to get pregnant adoption has been the biggest blessing for them. I have a frind who cannot concieve a baby of her own but she was blessed by being able to adopt 3 perfect children. she is the best mom I have ever seen in my life and she is so grateful for athe birth moms who gave her the chance to be a mom when they couldnt do it. there are many different types of adoption like open or closed adoption. with an open adoption you can get pictures of your child on a regular basis, see the child, and watch it grow up ( to a certain degree but that is what you put in the adoption papers)  just think of the lives you will bless with this one life. adoption is defiantly a wonderful, helpful and loving thing. giving your baby up for adoption does not mean that you dont love it, it actually means quite the opposite. you are giving your child a life you could never give them. good luck with what you decide!!

You dont need to thank me Brownhair30....everyone needs somewhere to go to discuss things in their life without being judged. I like you am a hardworking single mom. I am not going to like... I am scared bleepless about having this baby and doing it on my own. My 1year olds dad doesnt see him so I have him fulltime, I had a csection with him and these are so close together that I have to have a csection on june 29th to meet my little girl. Which means that I will have to fig out how to manage a 11yr old, toddler, and newborn after major surgery. My mom raised me to know that where there is a will...there is a way. But everybody is different hun. Don't get down on yourself because of the circumstances of how this pregnancy came to be or that you will (if you continue the pregnancy) have 3 diff baby daddys because in the end that wont matter. What will matter is whether or not you are capable of taking care of the baby and giving it all the love you can. What matters is what is best for you and your family. Forget all the negative people and look to your heart because you are the only one that knows your situation. And if you ever need anything feel free to message me :)

I see it as this god wouldn't put more on you if he thought you couldn't handle it... I'm seven months with my no job baby daddy not around I had two abortions in the past one was forced by my mom I wa 14... I would never say abortion it honestly leaves you emotional scarred.... The baby your carrying is a blessing and that baby could have the cure for something...  You never know... But the choice is yours goodluck
