Q: Getting Anxious

Just a few months ago I found out I was pregnant and was really scared. Both me and my bf were really scared, we talked and talked and came to a decision to have an abortion. I was really upset and scared about the whole situation. But afterwards I felt better, still thought about it every day but I was feeling better. But lately i've been getting these urges to have a baby. I'm 22 and me and my boyfriend are so inlove. I've never been happier, he treats me so great and wonderful. In ways I never thought I would ever get treated. But everyday I think about being pregnant again. When I had gotten pregnant I knew right away. I started feeling strange things in my abdomen, light cramping off and on. I had horrible naseau, I had no appetite. Every time I was around food or ate I felt nautious. My breast got swollen and were very tender. This all happened during the whole 5 weeks. Now I want to go through all that again, I want to go through the whole pregnancy. I sit and think and get inpatient, I want time to go by fast because all I can think about is having a baby of my own with my boyfriend. I want us to enjoy life's greatest gift. I haven't told him about these feelings that i've been having. I'm afraid to tell him but then again I want him to know what i've been feeling. I understand that it's not really the right time yet but it's really hard not to think about it and hold back.

Well you want all the feelings and everything to come back since you aborted the last one? Are you just wanting this to have that feeling or are you thinking about having the baby for the rest of your life? Because its not just about being pregnant and feeling the kicks and the ultrasounds. Its about having labor, taking care of a baby in the early morning hours, changing diaper after diaper, buying clothes, wipes, bottles, a crib, car seats, bibs....Its way more than just morning sickness. So if you think you want all this with your boyfriend then think about it very seriously. Discuss it and make sure its what you really want. You cant want to get pregnant again and feel for it, then abort it. Its going the whole way and having the whole 18 years of being responsible for another. Maybe you should wait until you 2 get married and then the both of you are ready for a family.
