Q: Abortion

I'm a 19 year old, scared and alone, college student. I haven't taken a pregnancy test yet (i am on tuesday). But i've had all the early symptoms: late period (now 3 weeks late), nausea, tired, change in appetite. I just have the gut feeling that I am pregnant and so i've been doing a lot of thinking the past week or 2.

I'm a struggling college student who cannot afford an abortion nor do I want to tell my parents because I already feel like a huge disappointment and I don't want to let them down or burden them. I just keep replaying how my mom might react and how hurt she'd be if I told her. :cry:

i'm wondering what kind (if any) of financial aid options are available for abortions? :cry:

Everything in life is your choice but the the paths that you take may have consequences, honestly look into all your choices first before being stuck on one. I know this is a hard time but sometimes things change for the better I know they dont have finacial aid for abortions but they do if you plan too keep it and want to attecnd school. Adoption is also available that way you know your child will be in a place where someone can financially and mentally take care of it..

What you do in the end is your choice abortion is a big step especially when you havent looked into other things and you may regret it after some people do some dont do what you want.

~good luck~

There is an abortion forum where you may get more support than in the pregnancy forums.

I'm not sure. I think it varies state to state/province to province. I would call the clinic and ask, they should know. That's the only thing I can suggest.

Good luck. I'm sorry about the idiots here who can't even answer a simple question and feel the need to cram their self-righteous opinions down everyone's throat 24 hours a day.

this is the website to the national association of abortion funds

http://countercrisis.Org
the website for counter crisis.. They have resources available to find out lots of funds you may qualify for.

*** most abortion clinics offer students discounts with id card.

*** some states like california have medicaid which will pay for an abortion if you are low income enough.. There are other states which have medicaid that pays for them.

*** if you are a new orleans victim you can get an abortion for free at many clinics.
