The choice is 100% up to you. If you decide to terminate the pregnancy or keep the baby, it is no body's choice but YOURS. I do not know anyone who was on the depo pervera who has got pregnant. In my opinion, I believe that this baby was meant to be born. Whatever you decide to do is up to you, but I think once you see the ultrasounds and actually see the baby you might see the little miracle you have inside you. If you have any doubts about terminating your pregnancy make sure it is YOUR decision and no one else's decision. If you have any doubts about forgiving yourself or regretting it don't do it and don't do it just because your boyfriend wants you to. Good luck on your decision!!

Definitely think this through. A baby is a blessing. Adoption is a great idea, many couples  out there would love to be parents. Share your thoughts w/ your bf even if he doesn't agree. Best of luck!

You could consider open adoption. That way you someone who wants a baby will get one and you can still see your baby. That way you still have college, family, boyfriend, and you can still see your baby. Research online about all of your options before you make your decision.

My boyfriend has a child already and is considerable older than me If I have this baby its mine I guess its all just gonna be how strong I am and I hope that maybe the ultrasound will give me clarity ......
