I'm a 20 years old and I am pregnant. I am so confused of what to do because basically me and my boyfriend have been together for 3 months. Uhm He always told me he wanted me to be the mother of his kid and I told from day one , I don't want to because I still wanna continue studying. His like my first man for me , In times we would fight because he wants to have sex w/out condome. So I was stupid because we had sex and he told me he didn't finish so I believed him and next thing I know I'm pregnant. At the same time my feelings changed drastically. I am so scared because I'm pretty much alone here in US , I came from a different country and have no family here. And Im just getting by, He wants us to be together but the pit of stomach just twist of the thought. I don't know how to deal with because I'm against abortion and adoption but somehow im considering abortion, which is very sick of me. I just don't want to have a connection with him for 18 yrs or more, I don't wanna disappoint my mom who sent me here. I know I may look bad to some ppl but I just really need advice cause I have no one confide with.
Hi there
Nothing to be ashamed about. There are several girls like you who end up with an unwanted pregnancy. First things first - there are several ways to abort, all depends on how much pregnancy has progressed. You can always approach a doctor who can examine you and then abortion can proceed. If you cannot afford it, I believe there must be ample women support groups or social service workers who can help you out.
It will be prudent on your part to educate yourself on birth control measures, birth control pills and plan B pills [the morning after pill]
Good luck
