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 have been reading the comments on this post and think you have been given great advice from most... however my mother had 3 kids (including myself) we all have different dads. We never questioned why we had different dads or why one of our dads was there and the others wasn't. We didn't have a screwed up life. And im thankful my mom kept every single one of us even though she had my older sibling at 15 me at 17 and mu younger sibling 9 years later and we all are so close together now. I wouldn't trade it for the world. I personally wouldn't ever choose abortion. But that's my choice. This is completely up to you and i think you'd do amazing job at mothering all three miracles. And one day you may find a fuy who would love to be 'dad' to all three ad my mom did. Good luck.

Its your decision. I would rather a woman give the baby up for adoption because there are so many people who would really love to have a child but cant BUT only you know what is best for you. Whatever you decide you are going to have to live with this decision no one else so dont let anyone try to make the decision for you. If you do decide on an abortion I advise that you go right away because there is a cut off were you will no longer be able to have one.

I think if you can't be non judgmental you shouldn't click on her post. She does have a choice and no one here had to love with it but you. God knows your heart brownhair so ignore the rude posts.

I don't think if she went thru with the pregnancy, that she'd have a ' screwed up child '.
& no one here has any right to judge anyone based in the question, yea it's a sensitive topic but doesn't mean we shouldn't be supportive even if we don't believe in it. just sayin'

I think abortion is wrong unless you were raped. I know a lot of you believe in we have the right to choose. I'm not trying to tick anyone off, just wanna share my opinion. It's like this you know that sex, wether it's unprotected or you're on birth control and doing everything possible to prevent pregnancy, can lead to pregnancy. When it does happen you put yourself there and should handle your reaponsibilities. Also like someone else said god doesn't put more on you than you can handle. With that said I don't think down on women that have chosen abortion, I do feel sympathy for you that you feel/felt your situation is bad enough to have/had an abortion.

It's all up to you. I'd do it for the sake of the baby. You don't need to add another screwed up child in the mix.
