I've tried everything to help her except it but every time I talk to her "you know I don't agree with abortion but there is always adoption" or she will tell me how horrible of a mom I will be that just depresses me what should I do??

Give yr mam time.. I was pregnany with my son at 19 my mam used to say nasty remarks that really upset me.. although she never asked me to go for adoption she used to ask how am i goin to cope..  I'm stupid for getting myself pregnant etc etc but when my son was born she changed completly! He's 17months old now and me and my baby daddy have a littke apartment together and we're due our baby girl any day now!! The best advice I can give you is to keep your head up and ignore nasty comments.. everything will work out and ypu will be a great mam!

I'm 26 nearly 27 years old and when my mum found out I was pregnant she went absolutely psycho at me and begged me to have an abortion...all because I hadn't been with the guy for very long when I fell pregnant...but once she got used to the idea and realized that I was too stubborn and determined to listen to her, she got completely on board and now she's awesome! Her whole life revolves around her granddaughter now. I don't think it matters how old you are...as I said, I'm nearly 27 and my mum still went cranky at me...just show your mum how determined and dedicated you are to give this child the best life possible, and show how completely loved the baby will be...she'll come around :)

I was 15 when I got pregnant with my first child when my mother found out we got into a fight.. later she gave me pills to have a miscarriage and when that didn't work she took me to an abortion clinic told me it was my doctor.. but she was there when I gave birth apologized to my son and out of all her other grand children she does for him way more... So I guess I'm sayin she might come around like mine did..

It's not about proving her wrong, it's about being a good Mom and if she doesn't want to be on board you need to distance yourself from her, especially if she is being verbally abusive. You don't need your baby around that drama.
