Hi there and welcome! If you talk to the dr's about the situation, they can keep you fairly comfortable. Have you thought about adoption? You might think of going to social services and see if they can help you, they should be able to give you some information on who to talk to. If they did do a c-section on you, you would not feel anything until you woke up but their is always a possibility just like any other surgery of having scar tissue later which can be painful but we all are different. I am sorry about your situation and even though it is late in the situation, I do hope that you have had your pre-natal visit and have started on your pre-natal vitamins.
Good luck to you!

An aboriton so late is very expensive, not covered by medicaid, and you need health reasons to have one.

Adoption may in fact be your only option, I am so sorry.

I don't want to sound like a nut case, but all i've felt is unhappy and severely depressed since I found out 3 days ago. I literally sometimes just want to die so I don't have to worry about having this child. I've been diagnosed with severe depression (and have attempted suicide 3 times in the past year) and this is just adding to it..I don't want this child at all and the fact that everywhere I turn people tell me I have to go through with it makes me feel sick...I don't know...

Your only option to have an aboriton would be for meidcal reasons..And an aboriton so late would cost thousands! You would have to travel to colorado, or one other state that has a doctor who could do it.


Are you sue you are that late?? Have you had an ultrasound yet? That is the only way to know for sure..

Yes, I also think, that having found out about pregnancy in such late time you can't be so sure about how many weeks you are pregnant... Anyway, I wish you good luck. And please remember, if you can't change your situation, then change your view towards it.

I am wondering if she is really 28 weeks... She may only be 20-24 weeks..If so then she could get an abortion by travelling....

But you need to find out asap...

They date pregnancy by last menstrual cycle ususally, but if you have irregular periods, it can throw dates off.

I hope i'm not, I don't get an ultrasound until friday..My normal periods are around 40-45 days apart...So hopefully this works out...

I live in nc.. Not too far from ohio =)

there is a clinic in dayton ohio that does abortions until 24 weeks..It is expensive though...

There are cheaper clinics that go pretty far in pregnancy in bigger cities, if you can travel =)

i am crossing my fingers that you are only about 19 weeks pregnant!

Plus if you were 28 weeks you would be huge!!! Super huge..

Thats another thing..I didn't start 'showing' until about 2-3 weeks ago, I am not huge in the least, just look like I am getting chubby..

Hmmm...

If you are just getting chubby you may still be early enough for an abortion.

I know that a lot of women say they are getting'chubby' at only 13-15 weeks..

Are you getting the ultarsound at an abortion clinic, or a regular gyn doc?

If you are just now getting chubby, you may be early enough to have an abortion. At 28 weeks you would be quite large! So there may still be hope..

There are a lot of abortion clinics that do not charge a whole lot for a 20 week abortion, so if you are under 20 weeks and need help, let me know =) I can try and help find you clinics , and costs..

Thank you so much..You guys have been so good and you've given me hope in what I thought was a hopeless situation...

I too hope that you have caught it in time, I will keep my fingers crossed for you! Cairifairy has been such a big help here on this forum! She, like a lot of others are very understanding!
I wish you the best!

Well, after a long weekend of pulling strings and calling every pregnancy center/ abortion clinic in the area, I managed to be able to schedule an ultrasound this afternoon instead of waiting until friday...Wish me luck everyone, I hope there will be good news!

I hope for your sake your in time but if not no situation is hopeless, you will be ok. Best of luck and let us know. Xx

I will warn you, some pregnancy centers are pro life!!! They will give you an ultrasound, but also push adoption! You do not have to listen though.

God yeah, they got me with that on a phone line, and there so good at it I didnt even realise till I had put the fone down!!!

Good luck hun........ Let us know how it goes

I am between 26-28 weeks. I may have to have a c section within 3-4 weeks, and they will then put it into adoption.
