Abortion is an option and something every woman has a right to choose for whatever reason they want to.  It's your legal right to have an abortion.  So, when the cut off is to how far along that they'll perform them will depend on your state.  If you tell me your state, I can look it up for you.  Some states allow you until any point in the pregnancy, some the cut off is 20 weeks, some 16 weeks and some 12. It varies.  so, what state are you in hon?

Hey listen, I just wanted to say that you're a strong person and you should do what's right for you. There are plenty of single moms out there and plenty of support too. If the dad doesn't want to grow up, it's his loss and maybe your blessing in disguise. Don't give up your baby for ANYONE. Especially a man.

That's awful and so hard To not have his support. I went through this a while back and I just stood my ground. Unfortunately I ended up having a MC but I was fully prepared to raise my child alone.
I hope you have the support of friends and family. Good luck!

Then my advice would be to get ready to do this alone. He can't make you get an abortion. The only thing he can do is sign his rights over after the baby is born.

NO I'M NOT. I'm trying to save my baby from the father he's the one who wants me to get one. I don't. He wants me to get one cause I told him to start acting like an adult and grow up or I will leave and he told me to get one if I want to leave him. I want to keep this baby and save its life and this will be my first child. That's why I was asking for help.

some people have to get an abortion for different reasons. We shouldn't judge as we don't know their story and don't need to know. People are on these forums for support.

As people have said it Depends on where you live, and if it's a late abortion there usually nerds to be a medical reason for it. Typically, most places allow up to 20 weeks.

The laws definitely change from state to state.

Definitely something to discuss with your doctor. I think the laws change from state to state when it comes to that topic.
