ABORTION!!!! Don't ruin your life! Having a baby at 14 will do just that!
**************************************
You WILL NOT regret an abortion for the rest of your life, I promise you. Say you have this baby, and put it up for adoption, you will carry the stigma of being a 14 year old pregnant little girl for a LONG time. You need to do this FOR YOU! Not for anyone else. This is YOUR LIFE. If you carry this baby to term, NO ONE will EVER look at you the same again. You will probably loose most of your friends, be horriblly teased at school, and talked about and made to look like a s l u t. You can end all of this NOW. It's painless, cheap, and it will SAVE YOUR LIFE!!!!!

This is a very personal decision you are facing.
If I had gotten pregnant at 14 I would have gotten an abortion. You have so much more life ahead of you before rasing children should become a part of it. You can't even drive yet, you have your education and future.
I am 28, and pregnant myself. Raising a child is a HUGE undertaking. I believe all children who are born should be wanted and never resented by their parents for having been born.
I could never have had a baby at your age.
Stay away from "crisis centers". I would go to Planned Parenthood and make an appointment to speak with a counselor about all your options.
Please seek help!!!

Abortion. Having a baby at your age will lead to long term health problems - it's not worth risking your health just so that 6-7 months from now someone might adopt your baby.
Keeping the baby is the absolutely worst decision - you will compromise your entire life - you will be unlikely to finish any amont of school, get even a vaguely good job and will be unlikely to even get married.
Get an abortion as soon as possible - right now it should still just be a highly undeveloped fetus - if you realize this, you won't have any long-term regrets.
Rmember to be a lot more careful in the future. Try not to have sex until you are married.

Wow this is a hot topic, good luck to you what ever the out come is. I believe that it would be in your best interest and your baby to not abort. That is a life growing inside you. Give he or she a chance to live. There is so many people who can not have children who want to adopt. So there is a option and if you chose to keep your baby there is alot of help out there for both of you. Several of my friends and family had a abortion and I see them struggle all the time with guilt of when they aborted, when the baby would be born, mother's day. God Bless you and your baby.

This is a choice that you need to make. Yes I am totally against abortions. But you need to weight you options out completely. You need to have al of your options in front of you, you have a few thought that I feel you haven't even considered. There is adoptions- open adop[tions and a closed adoption, let a family member raise the baby, and you and the father keeping the baby. I know that abortion is completely and entirely killing the baby so I won't even go there. Go to a local planned parenthood center and get info on every option. YOU NEED TO THINK LONG AND HARD ABOUT WHAT YOU WANT TO DO. Next time you need to NOT have sex. You are way to young and boys shouldn't even cross your mind.

Well this is really up to you and shouldn't be asking strangers what to do. But since I'm here I'll let you know how i feel. I don't think you should get an abortion. Like the person above me said other people would want this child. And getting a abortion is not a very pleasant thing to do. I myself didn't get one, but my aunt did. But the thing was i had to be her translator so that meant following her to her appointments. Sitting in the room while they ultrasound her, sitting in the acutally room where they did the abortion hearing the suction and seeing the blood and finally sitting with her in the recovery room with other girls who just finished having abortions. Some girls were crying and others were ok. After my first experience experiencing an abortion, i thought it was sad and it broke my heart.. I told myself never would i kill my child. But thats my story.
I hope you make the right choice for you and the lil one. If your not ready for a child please make wiser decisions next time. Save yourself the trouble and save a life.

I really think you should have a talk with your parents or an adult that you trust in terms of what you should do. Having a baby is a really huge decisions and responsibility for anyone. There are other options beside abortion that you can consider as others have mentioned. Just make sure you're thinking about all your options. Good luck.

Definatly don't have an abortion you'll regret it later in life with what if questions~ it sounds crazy but it's true. absolutly think things through alright ! if any thing at all there are things as open adoption where you can still be in the babys life if you want to how far along are you ? also it may be hard but just make sure you think things through alright pregnancy is a wonderful feeling especially when the baby starts moving it's like nothing else in the world I have had 4 and possibly on my 5th child

You need to make the best decision for you at this time. Please do not let random people on a website make this decision for you. My advice is to go to a Planned Parenthood to get options couseling. They will give you all your options. Beware of "crisis" pregnancy centers, these are often pro-life organizations that will try to sway you one way or another. Another option is to go to a trusted adult if you cannot talk to your parents because you will need support no matter what you choose. Its a very hard decision and you should not be pressured into any decision. Your choices are abortion, adoption, and parenting...all of which are very difficult. This is your private decision...and please do not let anyone make you feel guilty for your choice. You will be OK.

Have the baby. Its not the babies fault that you made a mistake. Give it up for adoption. Many loving families out their would love to have a baby and can't or just love kids and would be willing to have the child as thier own. An abortion could be potentionally devastating to your young body not to mention the fact that it would end your childs life. Find a Christian Pregnancy center in your area. They can help with free maternity clothes, counseling, and possibly even a referal to an adoption agency or a private adoption.

personally i would not have an abortion. but you should finish school and be able to provide for a child before you consider keeping the baby. you should consider adoption. there are lots of families out there that would adopt a baby.
