Possibly Pregnant, boyfriend wants an abortion; I don't.

Hello:

I am seven days late for my period. I have sore heavy breasts, heightened sensitivity to smell, day time sleepiness, and some mild occasional cramping. My period is usually very regular. Three months ago I separated from my husband. At the time I was pregnant 5 weeks. After much thought and consideration I had an abortion. I should also add that I already have three children with my husband. So, after the separation an ex boyfriend and I started seeing each other. Then sex came. We never used protection. Now, after having only one period after the abortion in November. My last period was Jan. 31st. I am confused and scared. After going through an abortion I don't think I could go through it again. He is ADAMANTLY against me having this baby if I am pregnant. The facts is that I am not in a position to have a fourth kid. But it is not the kid's fault. I had unprotected sex. I put myself in that position, so I should be the one to deal with it. To be honest, if he decides to walk out, then fine. He was never worth keeping. He has disappointed me greatly. He has provided me with very little emotional support.

So what exactly are you asking? Should you have an abortion? Clearly, if you don't want one, you shouldn't have one.

However, your little story illustrates perfectly why I am PRO-ABORTION. What on earth were you thinking? What did you (and the low-rent sperminator) think was going to happen if you had unprotected sex?

Really, go and get sterilised. There is really no way on earth that you should be having another child. Your writing is clear and quite grammatically correct, so you are obviously not a complete brainless numbnut -- why are you acting like one?

Give it up for adoption if you don't want an abortion and can't look after it.

Oopoop expressed my sentiments on the matter beautifully. If you don't want to abort, look into adoption. I hate to be snarky, but it sounds like you can't be bothered making your partner wrap the woody. I suggest you look into getting a tubal, since safe sex isn't your thing. It won't stop you from catching crotch rot but at least your chances of getting another "oops" will be slim to none.
