lisabug, how many days late are you?

Are you sure you want to do this? You sound like you don't really want to. There never is a "perfect" time to have a little babybug. Sometimes you have to really make sure it's what YOU want to do now. It's kinda weird to read about all the women who are having so many problems and would gladly change places with you in a heartbeat.

I'm 8 days late...but i have been way stressed out and i'm hoping thats' why i'm late....I don't wanna do it but I don't see any other option for me..

Is there any way you could carry the baby to term and give it up for adoption?  There are many childless couples who would love a new baby... just a thought...

First off if you had 3 positive pregnancy test you are probably pregnant.  I know that stress can make your period come late but I don't know that it would give you a false positive on the test.



Second, if you do go through with abortion you are not a terrible person you are one that has to make a decision with your life.  Is there a father around that you may want to make aware of the situation? He may make the decision a little easier.



Also if this is something that you are unsure that you want to do then be sure to talk to someone before you go.  It could even mean calling some churches to get advise.  Once you do this you can not undo it and you will have to live with the decision forever.  Be sure that this is the right one for you.



Look in to all of your options.



Hope you work it out.

Dear Lisabug, although I don't know you, nor your situation, those five questionmarks tell me something.  I would make sure to look at both sides of the coin, very carefully.  I too had abortion before, in fact right now I would give everything to have as nice-looking and healthy little baby as that one was {when I was having the u/s, an other dr(who did not know it wasn't a desired preg.) came in and he was amazed how beautiful everything looked in my 8th week, the dr who did the u/s did not say anything cause he knew I wasn't gonna keep it}...But I just knew that that was not the right time, nor the right person(dad).  Now, 3 years later I'm with the right man and this is the right time (in the meantime I moved to the States from Europe-what a change in one's life!!!)and here I am coping with bleeding, the baby is not developing as it should be, etc...Once again, I would give anything for a positive opinion from the dr next week.  There is no perfect decision, but it's very important to TRUST YOURSELF when making such a serious decision.  I wish you love,strength and wisdom

I had an abortion too, in March 2007. I have no regrets at all. Acwth02, you did right. Having a kid would Not make you a happier person OR stop you doing drugs. You did the right thing.

Its very sad that you hvae no regrets over this. Another person who cant have kids may have taken that child in and loved it. Very sad.
