A couple of days ago i learned i was
pregnant again for the second time (7
weeks). My daughter is 9 months old! There
is a part of me that wants to have this
child (which is by the same father as my
first), to give my little girl a
brother/sister close in age to grow up
with but then i snap out of it. Her
father and I aren't together, i don't want
him nor am i in love with him. He is not
worthy for me to bear another child by
him.
My turmoil is i don't believe in abortions
(life begins at conception). i'm scared
God won't forgive, i'm scared that i'm not
trusting him. I can see the future now me
with two kids, struggling single no
husband ,no boyfriend just a baby daddy
and that's not good enough. I know what i
did to do but I'm just afraid of going
through with it, I'm already consumed with
guilt. Need advice/ words of
wisdom/anything. Thanks!

i just wrote this post to another person,
but it might help you too.
i had a freind who found out she was 6
months pregnant while going through
chemotherapy. she never knew she was
pregnant because before they found the
cancer she had miscarried (turned out she
had twins and only one died) and the
chemotherapy masked her symptoms. anyhow,
she was told her baby would have heaps of
problems because of the cancer treatments
but she was too far along to get an
abortion. later she went to have the baby
and came home empty handed, she said the
baby had died. it was so sad to see all
that she had gone through, but people just
accepted it and let it go. a few days
later she came back with a beautiful baby
girl to our amazement. she told us that
she had planned on giving the baby to a
home for the disabled because of all of
the expected problems and that she had
been councelled to tell everyone that the
baby had died so that people wouldnt treat
her poorly for her decision to give the
baby up. she followed through with the
plan but after only a few days changed her
mind because she missed the baby so much.
point of this storey is that you can
follow through with the pregnancy and
should you not want it by the end you can
descretely give your baby to a loving home
and tell everyone that it passed away. no
one will harrass you, tell you that you
were a bad mother, or rub it in your face
like what might happen if you tell
everyone that you gave your baby up for
adoption. its something to think about,
but i hope that you dont abort. a child
should never have to pay for its parents
sins, especially with its life.
best of luck
