First, abortion is legal, but I wouldn't recommend it. I did it when I was 17. I now know how possible and responsible it is to actually give birth and be a good parent. The good news is, your sister isn't 14 years old, and could be a good parent.
Abortion is a very PAINFUL experience, and your sister will regret it the rest of her life. It might even effect her chances of having a baby later in life due to scarring of the uterus.
Best thing: She needs to either give the baby up for adoption, or keep it and take as many child development/childcare classes that she can. She will probably need some counseling too, and with this, she can get through and raise a happy baby!
My best wishes to you and your sister! Babies are wonderful gifts to good parents!

Unfortunately, I can't answer your question. However, I wanted to point out to the rest of you that she didn't ask whether or not it was right to abort! Telling her how wrong she is doesn't do anything to help the situation.
If you do believe that she (the sister) should have the baby and give it up for adoption or something, you could at least be a little kinder about it. Have you ever thought what it might mean for the baby to be raised by someone who wasn't ready to raise a baby? There's always more to a story than can be explained in a paragraph or two.
The whole point of this rant is that you should stick to answering the question as it is asked.

best bet:
let her have the baby...find some close family/friend that really wants a child and has been trying and unable to have one!!!!
It's the gift of life! how selfish to steal it away when it can easily be a gift to someone else!!
^_^
goodluck!
and btw-it's your sister's decision, not yours.
and while doctors and technology is advanced, nobody knows how far along she definitely is.
I had a friend in the navy who took 3 pregnancy tests, and only the last one came up positive, and said that she was about 1 month pregnant, and she was about 4-5 months along!!!
pregnancy is really not something to be messed with...let her have the child, then have her give the child up for adoption to someone the family/friends know very well!! She can always be a part of the baby's life without being known as "mom" and ensuring the safety of her child while being able to do the things she needs to do in order to survive!! (school, etc)

Firstly, it has to be at least a month old if she knows that she is pregnant. you cant test for pregancy if it has been less than a month. secondly, it is NOT murder. I understand that your family considers it a sin, but it is not a person, it is just a collection of cells. I think you should contact your nearest planned parenthood. they can give you advice and information about everything from abortion to adoption (if you dont believe in abortion) and they can give her contraception so that it doesnt happen again. I am sorry to hear that this happened. I wish you the best.
Please dont try any home remedies. that is very dangerous and your sister can end up in the hospital.

actually for those of you suggesting the morning after pill, that pill is to be taken within 72 hours of unprotected sex. not 30 days later! thats why I think they should have never approved that pill. because many misinformed teenage girls will be trying to take way too late and not care. do your reasearch before you suggest something like that. have a little faith in your sister. what makes you think that she will turn out like you did. she may choose other paths or roads to go down. i agree, if she doesn't want the baby she should give it up for adoption. nine months is not too long to suffer when in the end she will be blessing another family.

I think she should think aobut her options. Abortions are legal. I went throught the same thing. I choose to have my baby and keep him. I could never give him up to other people. I would go my whole life wondering and he would go through his whole life wondering and possibly hating me. Take her to a clinic and let professionals talk to her. Remember it is her decision not yours. I don't know of any home remedies except have some one hit her in the stomach over and over. It will be painful and it might not work. Good luck to you and her in what ever her choice is.

Wow, tough choices.
It does not matter what you or your family believes. It really matters what God believes.
Think of it from that perspective. While we contemplate in our minds what is right or wrong, and make decisions based on our intellect and our fears for the future, we forget to think about it from God's perspective. If you really believe in God, do you want to make Hid decisions for Him? Do you not think that God allowed this to happen? God will take care of her.
I do understand, it is a tough decision. And I feel for her.
God, by the way, does not love her any less for getting pregnant. He loves her as much now as He did before. If we did not make mistakes, then He would not have needed to send His Son to die for us.
Home remedies mean one thing, high percentage that your sister may die. I know you do not want that.
And abortion? It is surprising how many states do not require the same sanitary requirements as that of surgery.
May God bless you, and your sister and her baby. May you three allways find His wisdom in the order of things.

well it is a sin... whether or not it is your families belief or not... she is carrying a baby whether or not it is born yet.. it is still human...if she didnt want to get preg she shouldnt have been having sex... and if you didnt want her to go down the same road as you did then maybe you should have talked to her about it and told her how hard it was to have a kid at that age... and besides that she is less than a month how can you be sooo sure that she is preg anyways?? did you take her to get a blood test at the doctor or is she just late on her period??? but i wouldnt kill the baby that she made.....

let her choose her own path if she decides she wants to keep the baby LET her. she can let it up for adoption and pick out the parents herself to make certain it goes to a good home. im afraid i dont know any home remedies but the morning after pill and its too late for that. let her decide her own fate she isnt following your road just cause she got pregnant (im assuming like u did?). she has to make her own way in this world. let her live her own life. that doesnt mean you cant give advice because a big sister is always entitled to that, but you cant make decisions for her. she has to decide for herself.

I totally believe in abortion, but this is her choice. Leave it to her, your parents and the doctor.
If she doesn't want the baby herself, work with her and find her the best doctor to do so. Don't rely on homemade abortion inducing "rememdies" because it can hurt her and te child if it was born.
Just have a family talk. I wish you the VERY best. Good luck.
