I found out a few days I was pregnant I
thought I had my period coming... It felt
just like period-cramps. My first test
when I took was negative and I had to wait
few more weeks, here I am... 5 postive
tests. It is kind of hard to believe I am
pregnant, doesn't feel like it because of
those period cramps. Good luck....
Next week, I had to make an appt for an
abortion (which I really wish I don't have
to)- but I have to... Because of that I
am in college and I want to give my child
the best place I could give... I am kind
of dissponited I will never give my first
unborn baby life where she/he can grow up.
Unplanned pregnancy is never what I
wanted but it just happened.. My
boyfriend and I gave it a name.... I know
it sounds kind of strange. I truly feel
guilty. I have been crying lot lately
about it and I am kind of senstive about
it too. My boyfriend keeps telling me
that our baby is going to be in the best
place, a better place. Not where a place
we barley can afford the baby, no toys or
so many other reasons. I dont know how
many girls here has went through their
loss of abortion because they just have
to. I have watched many of movies of
young girls who has experiences of those,
I thought myself they shouldnt gotten
themselves in the first place. I hated
what they have done, but look at me.... I
hate myself. I know I have been so
negative about myself. I feel lost and
confused, just really sad but I know this
would be the best right now. I would like
to set up a small coverastion with other
girls who has this experiences.

:cry:
yeah, diffcult decsion. Somehow, you
would be making the best decsion of all.
In a way, it is if you are in a sitituion
where you can't afford having a baby right
now.
Well, I just had an abortion yesterday and
they had a diffcult time because of my
celix was too tight. I was really
uncomforable, and it just happened right
there. I know I would never want this to
happen again.. I had it once and I am not
going to have another regret like this
again.

Well, if you feel so sad guilty and
disappointed---why are you going to do
it.?? Kill your own baby???
It makes no sense to me ever. If .God
had not intended for you to have a baby
.He would not have allowed you to be come
pregnant.
There is never a reason to kill a
baby---ever. And you really might want
to take this somwhere else--there are
women been on here trying to conceive for
months, years to no avail. Then you come
on talking about getting rid of yours.
It might just strike a sour note.
I miscarried 6 children when I was
"college age" and I had more pain and
sorrow from that, than anyone deserves.
I am now living a promise my .God gave me
for all my loss. I am 44 --just turned,
and I am pregnant with twins--and I have
no uterus. So I know that all baby's are
a blessing from .God. And if your
seeking peace of mind by trying and
talking about this--you will never find
it. For .God is the one who gives you
the baby's and .He does not agree with
abortion. .He is also the one who gives
peace.
I am truly sorry you feel there is no
other way--but there is, think about it!!!

Re: Abortion... Posted: 01-03-06 13:12pm
Could you just possibly have the baby...
And really truly give it the best place
you can? A place alive? With an adoptive
family? Lots of people want to adopt. I
have a really hard time getting pregnant
and like the option of being able to adopt
in order to have a child. I know its
hard when in college... But its only 9
months... And you can still study... And
give the baby life....You can even have an
open adoption....And see how your baby
grows up.
Good luck.

I agree with fatfamily this is not the
best place for this subject. I lost my
baby at five months of pregnancy and it
was the worst thing I have ever
experienced. Now that I am trying to get
pregnant again and its taking awhile I
really have no sympathy for you choosing
to kill your baby because it is
inconvenient for you. Do you know how
many infertile couples out there who would
of been overjoyed to adopt your unwanted
baby? And give him/her a wonderful home?
I just dont understand it.

Think About It! Posted: 01-12-06 03:35am
I had an abortion while I was in
highschool, and I regret it everyday. I
wish I would have been strong, and went
against my family, but I wasn't. All the
talk about not having money, and the "best
place for the baby" was going on too. I
now realize I was the mother, and the best
place for my baby was to be with me, not
dead. It makes no sense. I am now trying
to conceive, and sadly have had no luck.
I would be the proud mother of a beautiful
(almost three year old) baby if I would
have thought this out, and made my own
decision. All I say is think long and
hard about it. To me it was the worst
mistake ever. :cry: :cry: :cry:

All I can advise is to do what feels right
to you. But please look at your situation
- you are in college and establishing your
future. Would you really want to quit
school to care for a child you may not
even truly want?
If there is any uncertainty at all about
whether or not you want to keep the child,
there's a good chance you will regret
giving birth within the first year of the
child's life. Too many girls and women
keep children they aren't sure they really
wanted and the sprogs end up being
neglected or abused.
I know this is a hard time for you and
your boyfriend, but you are truly making
the right decision. If you know you would
not be able to provide for the child, it
is best to not bring it into the world and
into a life where it couldn't have
everything it needs.
Adoption wouldn't be a much better choice
than giving birth - think about it. There
are so many foster homes chock full of
unwanted kids, and a lot never even find
homes. Would you rather subject a kid to
a childhood without a real family and
without real love, or end its life when
it's partially developed and can't feel
pain in a procedure that lasts less than a
half an hour?
Remember, a fetus is not a "human" - it's
a potential human. Abortion is not the
equivalent of stabbing or shooting
someone, so please don't let people
guilt-trip you into thinking you're
murdering a child.
..People may tell you about how the fetus
will feel pain during the abortion to
change your mind (including doctors), but
from what I have learned, a fetus cannot
register pain in its brain until the third
trimester. Its brain is not developed
enough yet from birth up to about 5 months
to recognize pain. I'm not making this up
- this was in a news article from last
month.
Anytime you need to vent about things, you
can always come here - everyone's here to
listen and to help. If you follow through
with your decision, I wish you luck and I
hope it won't be too difficult for you
afterwards. It's a hard thing to decide,
but you are making the right decision for
yourself and for the child.

so.....When does it
become a human? When is it a baby?
When does the soul enter it? .Dr's just
use this kind of explaination to make it
easier on their own conscience---im sure
.God would have a bit to say on that
one..."they are not human yet" it is not
homicide---okay you keep telling yourself
that!!!!

they are not human, and
feel no pain, well.... Why do they pull
away from the suction tube. Trying to
live, trying to survive???

also from the same article...The fetus
pulling away from the suction during an
abortion is an involuntary response. If
you were to open the mother's womb and
gently poke the child with your finger, it
would move around. That's an involuntary
action as well. I'm not saying a fetus
is totally brain-dead, because the brain
is what develops first. I'm saying that
a fetus doesn't feel pain until around the
time of the third trimester.

a fetus becomes a human when everything is
developed enough that it can survive
outside the mother's body. Until then,
it's merely a blob of cells and genes.
If you cut a fetus out of the womb at
three months, it can't be cared for
outside the body because it's not
developed enough yet. Maybe it can be
incubated by machines, but it can't be
taken care of the "normal" way.
As far as the almighty lord...Well, I may
not be a bible thumper, but I know of a
couple of instances in the bible where god
pretty much condones abortion as well as
infanticide. I won't go into it any
further because I don't want to start a
debate of religion.
---------------------------
sorry for going off on a tangent, my baby.
I'm not telling you abortion is the
undisputed best and only way to handle
your situation. I'm just trying to tell
you it's not evil, deviant, stupid, etc.
To want to abort. I think most of the
people on these boards are pro-life, and I
think you need some input from those who
are pro-choice as well.

I think adoption is a wonderful option
that people tend to forget about.
However, it's not up to us whether this
girl gets an abortion or not. It's her
choice, and i'm not going to judge her one
way or another. Personally, I would never
ever get an abortion.
As for saying the fetus "is not human" and
"doesn't feel pain".... I think that's a
load of crap. Who's to say a fetus cannot
feel pain? Have these doctors been in
that situation before? The doctors like
us to believe they don't feel pain for our
own peace of mind. In my opinion, every
living, thriving creature can feel pain,
including an unborn baby (yes, a human).
The only difinitive answer would come from
these aborted babies, but unfortunately we
don't have that option.
Girl, do whatever you think is right. But
think about it for a long time before you
decide to get an abortion. Once it's
done, there's no changing it. You and
your boyfriend are responsible for the
life growing inside your body; do you
think it's fair to abort your baby when
he/she had nothing to do with it?

Lets Talk Life Please Posted: 01-12-06 12:46pm
I'm sorry but this really is not the place
to discuss this. Having a baby is so hard
for us and we've been trying and paying
the Dr. Etc. For months... I cannot
handle listening to people say its okay to
burn your unborn child to death in the
womb or tear it limb from limb. Look at
abortiontv.Com its the truth, it is cruel,
evil, deviant, etc.... It is. Go
someplace else if you want to talk about
death. I want to only think about and
believe in life. And to have a baby.
Each one is a miracle and a gift. To say
otherwise is undeserving of that gift and
the child doesn't deserve to be discarded
in that manner. It is a child. Not a
"non human" its human. Don't kid
yourself! It feels pain early on...
Don't kid yourself! I did a lot of
research in college on this topic and that
is just the simple truth. But we can tell
ourselves and the young women of society
whatever we need to to make it "ok" to
make it acceptable. It isn't ok, it is
killing a human life. End of story. Take
the discussion on death elsewhere
please.

I realize this was started on 12-2-05 and
I am sure by now she or they have made up
their mind one way or the other. I am
pro-choice and that is what I believe in,
to continue on with the pregnancy, adopt,
or abort. I believe a lot of what
cambion says is correct.
The best of luck to whatever you decide!
No one here is here to judge you!
However their is a abortion forum here
that is supposed to be for support.
I do believe that it is your choice and
yours alone as we are not walking in your
shoes!
