I am now just 6-7 weeks pregnant, and the baby's daddy doesn't want to believe that I am pregnant and also says that I should have an abortion because "he can't have a baby right now, he's already at the breaking point". We've been seeing each other off and on for about a year and at this point I don't think our relationship is going anywhere good.
I just don't want to be a single mother. I'm only 21 years old and I don't want to do this by myself. But he's made it clear that he doesn't want this baby and said that "unfortunately, abortion is the best choice". I feel so depressed. I've called in to work about 5 or 6 times since last week because I just don't have the motivation to go anymore.
Can anyone offer me any kind of advice? I'm just a mess right now.

Hang in there. 6-7 weeks is a LONG way from 40. You have plenty of time to get everything together. He has plenty of time to grow up. Sex has big consequences and many women have had to face them even younger than 21. Now is when you decide that you are this baby's mommy and that with or without him you will be the baby's mommy. You don't need some "boy" to tell you what to do with your body. Go back to work and enjoy life. He will be the one missing out. Good luck

you are 21 and an adult. you have to keep your baby. you can't listen to that jerk guy abortion is never the answer. go on and have that baby if you can't keep it give it to someone who can. don't kill it. and everyone feels depressed and emotional at first. try a little walk in the morning that will help you get motivated for the day. good luck.

It is a Hard situation for you! I can not make things easier for you eather! But I suggest that you should go back to your work! Please keep the child! It is going to be very difficult for you, but you are not going to regret this! Words are easy for me to say! But don't get any advices from your boyfriend! He is afraid and he is a cowered! Fear is good, but being a cowered is another thing! Do not relate marriage with having the baby! Generally, having a kid is a good thing! Good luck!

please consult someone in your area, like a planned parenthood place, and find out what options you have. I hope that you will consider giving the baby to a family that is ready for a child, instead of killing it. Don't be depressed, pray and look to God for guidance.
