it is nobodies choice but yours and the fathers if he even cares.
i personally feel that if you think you cannot afford another child at the moment then dont keep it. I as a father want nothing but the best and happiest life possible for my son, with that being said i think all parents feel the same way. so i feel if you want an abortion get one, if not maybe adoption. hope this helps.

I am a strong believer that life is what you make of it. It is not everyone else who needs to make this decision. You are the one who has to live with it no matter what it is. Personally I would want to keep the child. But first I would have to really sit down and weigh out the pros and cons. You know like they told us to do in school, make a list and compare. The most important thing is that the kids are well taken care of.

Only you can honestly know if that is possible. Think long and hard and don't be afraid to go to a counseling center to talk to an expert, if nothing else to just get advice and have someone to talk to about your feelings on this matter. (most are free within income guidelines and sometimes you can even go in as a crisis and get the first visit free)

I was 16 when I got pregnant with my daughter. Believe me, no one wanted me to have her, and if they did they wanted me to give her up for adoption. At 16 I had to make a very adult decision. I went to my local counseling center and asked to talk to an expert, someone on the outside looking in so to say. It really helped me. I was able to look at what lay ahead fully with out influences from others that already had their own opinions.

My daughter just turned 12 and even though it has not been easy to take care of her, all the time; if I had to do it over again I know I would make the same decision. (with one big difference...timing, I would of waited)

Remember it's not just you that is effected by your decisions. Your kids are 10 times more likely to be effected by your decisions than you are. Kids are what my grandmother used to call "catch-alls". They catch it all, the good and the bad, the lesions and the teachings, whether you meant for them to learn from it or not, THEY DO!!! Rule of thumb: if you wouldn't want your daughter to do it then DON'T!

I hope this helps and good luck to ya!

get on medicaid for your pregnancy and if u need to go on food stamps and get a job to help. diapers and wipes are PRIORITY i know i have 2 kids myself = 16 month old and 6 month old. =]

hope u choose the right decision = keep baby

Its entirely up to you. At teh end of the day of you abort and THEY regret it they will always have the ability to remind you that it was YOU who had the abortion, not them. So whatever you choose do it for YOU and YOU only.

If the child's father already resents the child, plan your future with this child without him in the picture so you have a realistic view of how its going to be with 3 children, little money and little support.

As far as your health I think 3 is the maximum number of c-sections allowed before it becomes too risky.

As far as your body not being ready, chances are you would have miscarried if it weren't ready for where it is now and in the future if your doctors deem it too risky you can have an abortion in a hospital for medical reasons. I think that allows a lot more peace for your conscience in your case since you already view your fetus as your unborn child. Many women feel the same as you do about pregnancy and unborn children/fetuses, but also many don't. However your situation is your own and you've got to do what's best for you.

WHats best for you may not always be what everyone likes or wants but its something you can live with.

Don't give up so easily. There are many options out there, places where you can get support and assistance. The decision is ultimately yours, but it seems that you wish to keep this child. So make up your mind to do it, get on the ball and visit your local social services office for assistance, get into the WIC program, and seek medical assistance. You'll wonder, in a few years, how you managed to get through it, but you'll be amazed at how you've done it nonetheless. Sometimes there are people around us who tell us we "can't" and "shouldn't", but what do they know? They know no more than we do. Don't listen to the negatives. Your body can take it after two c-sections. I believe that docs don't like to do more than 3 c-sections, but I may be wrong about that. Talk to a doctor and get as much info as you can. You will survive. You can get help with housing if you need it, too, through the local social services office. It doesn't have to be forever. We all need help at some point in our lives. Take what you are offered and just be grateful that it's there and keep pushing forward. You'll be okay. Life is still good. Your children will be okay, the new one inside of you will be okay. No one can tell you what you should do. Only you know what to do. I'll be praying for you. God bless and don't give up!

I thought about having an abortion when I got pregnant with my 3rd child because I too had two prior c sections at the time my oldest was 2 and my youngest was 9 months old. I hemorraged after my second c section and my health was questionble. I just knew i would die having another c section. When i was 19 my parents forced me to have an abortion, it has messed me up mentally ever since. i wanted that baby with all of my heart. I decided even if I would die after the 3rd consecutive c section that I would rather die than have an abortion. Luckily after 8 months of being pregnant just knowing i would bleed to death upon his birth, i had my third son. The third c section was absolutely complication free unlike the prior two. and my little man is one healthy. no physical pain is equivalent to the broken heart an abortion leaves you with. Going from one child to two was alot harder than from 2 to 3 your already used to the chaos. hope this helps

It's your choice!! If you want to wait until you can hear the heart beat, take the father and your family with you to get the ultrasound, once they hear that beating heart they will be thrilled!!!

God bless you and your children : )
