im 14 years old n im pregnant!! i dont know if i should keep it?

Question

Should i keep it or get an abortion

Answer 1

Abortion is out.

I would give the baby up to a loving, caring, responsible family who will provide care for it.

Then, don't have sex anymore til you're married.

Answer 2

Have you considered giving the baby up for adoption? I know that this is a very difficult choice, but it's a beautiful gift that you can give to someone who cannot have a child while still being able to have time to grow up. There is even something called open-adoption where people will send you pictures and allow you to visit the baby on occasion. Make sure you talk to someone who will help you make the best decision. An abortion is a difficult decision to live with for some women. And you are so young you really should discuss this with someone who loves you and who you trust. I think that 14 is too young to have and keep a baby. But this is a decision that you must make. I wish you the best of luck. It's a very difficult situation that you're in. But just remember... there are more options than merely aborting the baby or having to raise it on your own.

Answer 3

Being from a very large family, and wanting lots of kids in the future, I don't believe in abortion myself. Though it is still an option, though I don;t really recomend it. It is considered murder, at least on my part.
Other than that, an abortion costs a lot of money, thousands of dollars. If you don't feel like dealing with morning sickness in the first trimester, or feeling the life grow inside of you, then go ahead, have an abortion. I'm not going to protest against it. But think of the alternatives too. You could keep the child alltogether, and be a mother and care for it as it grows, or you could put it up for adoption after it's born. There are two types of adoption: open and closed. In an open adoption, you'll get to chose the adoptive parents, and possibly get to be involved with your child's growth without actually having to take care of it yourself. Closed adoption, you don't know who you're giving your baby away to, and it's possible you'll never see it again.
I suggest you put it up for open adoption. You have your whole life ahead of you, but you shouldn't end another possible life.
I'm 14 years old too, and had a scare when my 13-year-old friend thought she was pregnant.
Though a birth may be difficult at this age, it'll be worth it to see that baby. If it wasn't worth it, I wouldn't have 6 brothers and sisters, and my dad wouldn't be the middle of 9.
But don't just blindly rush into an idea, or listen to another's thoughts without thinking yourself first. Come up with your own decision, and afterward, you can tell if you made the right choice.

Answer 4

I am happy to hear you are having sex at 14. Its a normal thing. But I am unhappy to hear you are pregnant. If you aren't prepared for the consequences of sex, you should not be having it. I mean, we all know though pulling out is not 100% effective, i never got any of my girlfriends pregnant that way. I also suggest a condom for future encounters.

But ofourse, we are passed the sex thing now. Now you are pregnant. I really have no opinion on abortion. It seems people have very crazy views on why tghey feel that way about abortion. Whether you are pro-choice or pro-life, you are crazy. I say, let everyone keep their opinions out of it and you make the decision if you want to keep it or have an abortion. Do not designate yourself as pro-life or pro-choice. I feel it depends on the situation. If you make yourself one or the other, you will be more inclined to make the same decision later when the cicumstances may be different. Thats my opinion. Make your own choice that best for the current situation. I am not pro anything. Everyone's situation is different.

Answer 5

DO NOT GET AN ABORTION! PLEASE DON'T! Do you want to see what the baby looks like after getting an abortion? Go to google images and type in abortion. The baby is mutilated! Look, if you know you aren't ready for a baby, give it up for adoption. There are PLENTY of people out there who would LOVE a child, but can't have one.

And, if you didn't want to get pregnant, why did you do it? Because it felt good or something? Did you want to do it or were you pressured? If it felt good or something, why didn't you just "pleasure" yourself!

Answer 6

I think every baby deserves a chance at life. All 3 of my babies are the most wonderful blessing ever! All 3 of them were unplanned as well. Of course I'm not as young as you are I was 18 with my first pregnancy but I really don't think you should abort it. If you can't keep it , why can't you give the baby up for adoption to the many desperate parents out there that can't have children? My cousin had a baby at 15 and she kept it. Everything worked out fine and that baby is now 16! She turned out just fine. Everyone makes mistakes but abortion should not be a form of birth control. Good luck and hopefully your baby will get the gift of life he/she deserves.

Answer 7

That's all up to you. A lot of people may try to persuade you either way but the bottom line is are you ready for a child? Do you want the child? Sometimes people aren't ready for children and a second chance may be all they need. I wouldn't recommend using abortion as a birth control method but if you aren't ready then it's an option. On the other hand if the thought of having a child makes you happy and you are excited about it then there are always ways to make it work. Think about what you want and choose from there.

Answer 8

so many opinions-- put it up for adoption, get an abortion, dont get an abortion. First off sit down and talk to your parents. Become informed, educate yourself on all options out there. Then make your decision based on what you and your family feel is best for you and your unborn child. I'm sad for you right now. You are still a child, and children should be thinking about their futures, and hanging out with their friends, and their proms, college and such. Not thinking about raising a baby. After this if you stay sexually active I certainly would think about being responsible for yourself and getting on birth control. Good luck to you.

Answer 9

Honey, no one on here can make that decision for you. It is your own body and your own life you are dealing with here.
First you need to tell your parents, guardians, or an adult you trust. You need to find out if you will have the support you need in this tough situation. If you decide to keep the baby, you have a lot of work and planning ahead. If you decide that you can't raise a child and you want to go with adoption or another option, you are going to need just as much support. It is a decision I would not take lightly or on the advice of people you don't know and who half the time don't know what they are talking about. Please ask for help from someone you trust and remember, no one but you can make this choice. Good luck

Answer 10

Well an abortion is a NO for me sorry that is my opinion. If you made the decision to have sex you need to make a decision for the baby. You have 2 other good options 1. keep it and raise it, be a good mother, grow up sooner, or 2. Give it up for adoption there are thousands of people out there that want a baby more than anything now that cant get pregnant or cant have kids, who would be more than willing to give it the best life it could have.

Answer 11

Getting an abortion is the same thing as murdering. You're ending a life, no matter how small. I know that there's going to be pain and hard times, but you must stick with it. You don't have to keep the baby, and you can definitely give it up to adoption.
Please, consider the life you are thinking about ending. You have a LIFE inside of you- how could you end that??
Please stick with it- keep it or give it up for adoption. You have to make a decision- the only one that is right is to keep it.
Do you want to go through your life knowing you killed someone?
