Abortion pressures

I am 32-years-old and 6 weeks and 1 day pregnant. My boyfriend of 6 years doesn't want me to continue pregnancy. I have an almost 15-year-old daughter myself and I am hesitant to start over with a new baby. I have physical problems with a hip replacement from a car crash so my body isn't in top form. It is SCARY! I don't know what to do! I WANT to be happy about it,but how can I?. Does anyone have advice to bring my boyfriend out of this cold and callus attitude? It is a miserable experience for me.

An abortion is something drastic that you can never undo. Don't do it because you feel pressured, that kind of regret is not one you want to live with. Do what feels right to you and tell your boyfriend to be a man and assume the consequences of his actions, after all he got you pregnant and probably knew it could happen.

Your body, your choice. Whatever you choose is a big decision and you should make it based on what you want, not whether or not you have his support. If you want to baby, he'll probably come around. If he doesn't, you will eventually realize that you can do it yourself. Best of luck xx

I don't know. Yes.. Part of me wants to keep this baby and be happy about it AND be supported in my decision. I am so stressed and upset that I am afraid to make choices that i will regret.
