I actually asked my fiancee that because I was curious as to how he felt about it. We decided that we'd talk together with my doctor and get tested again.

I have mixed feelings.

I would go with an abortion because really that wouldn't be much of a life for them. Plus it'd make things hard on the rest of the family. I know it sounds horrible that I'm saying this but I see it more as a merciful thing to abort the baby now then to have him or her live a life like that and for the rest our family (because we would still have other kids if this were our first).

I would want to keep it because that baby was made with the love that my fiancee and I have for each other. A pure love that has now been put into a physical form. And plus being the mom I don't know how I could deal really because I'd know that I had that life inside of me. Plus what if the tests were wrong (this is how we came to the conclusion to retest).

He agrees with both but he strongly agrees with aborting it because it just doesn't seem right to know that our baby would not be right and make it go through that sort of life.

Ultimately I'd have to be put in that situation to really know. Either one would a difficult decision and a brave one to make. I'd do a lot of crying and praying though I know that for sure.

Good Luck in all you.

I had this problem with my son. I was six months pregnant and found out he had no kidneys and no chance of survival. They gave me the same options but instead were
1)abort
2)try to hold him as long as I can
3)DNC
If I had the small chance of him having one little thing as a disability, I would not care. There are some people out there that could not handle the pressure of taking on that responsibility. I wish I had that choice. Personally I cannot see why people abort a child with a disability. But to each his own.

What kind of disability? Some disabilities lead to alot of operations ,pain and suffering. Like cerebal palsey, If you keep it could you stand for it to go through alot of suffering when maybe it couldn't talk. It would take a special person to handle all of this If you think you are a special person, then that answers your question. Another thing would your partner help you take care of this baby or would he leave you to do it on your own?

hi, it incredibly is between the main perplexing judgements a woman will ever would desire to make in her existence. Are you a hundred% specific you're pregnant? if so, you ought to call an abortion medical institution ASAP. the till now the greater clever. distinctly in case you're already a minimum of two mos. alongside. deliberate Parenthood can refer you to respected clinics on your area. they are able to in elementary terms furnish you with a tablet now (in case you're 12 wks and below). it's going to be ok. The medical doctors are very stable, and function sympathetic ears. I choose you the suited of high quality fortune, and don't pay attention to judgemental comments that i'm specific will come alongside with asking this question. in elementary terms you already know what's right. do no longer sense responsible, it is in basic terms no longer it incredibly is time. Wait, are you asserting you're having soreness and cramping 4 weeks after the abortion? If that's what you assert i might genuinely call the medical institution you had it completed at. maximum clinics have a 24 hour line which you would be able to bypass away a message on, and get a reaction interior of minutes. call the medical institution, 4 weeks after and nonetheless cramping and bleeding isn't time-honored. The bleeding would desire to final now no longer than a week, in basic terms like a common era. it might've been heavier and greater cramping than a common tho. do no longer pay attention to the guy who suggested 6 weeks is time-honored, it is not time-honored. have you ever already long previous on your mandated verify up after? in case you didnt, you extremely ought to. do no longer play at the same time with your well-being, and please call the medical institution you had it completed at no rely what time it incredibly is the place you're.

It maybe very sad&very hard but I would keep and give the best life I could just like I would for any other child.I'm sure its a harder decision than people are acting like it should be.Its easy for us to judge.Now as a christian of course#3 isn't an opt.for me,and#1I'd be affraid no one would want to adopt them and they would have all these problems and no one to love them and tell them their great and loved.But it doesn't mean it would just be an easy decision.Sorry.

Keep him.

I knew my son would have medical problems, didn't realize it would affect his development. He's now 6 and not toilet trained, can't speak words that anyone understands and functions at a 3 year old level. And I love him a fiercely as my 'average' kids (2 girls) and would not want my life any other way. Ptewy on the midwife who suggested I abort him.

Any person that has a strong heart & mind would keep the baby, of course. How can anybody just, not love their own child? That's horrible.

I would def. keep my baby. Mental illness or not, That's what I created, and he or she has just as much right to lvie, if not more than anyone else.

Educate myself on the baby's potential disability.
Do my best to give the baby a normal & happy life.
It takes an entire village to raise a baby - I am sure there would be support from family, friends, and my partner. . .

So is it your babys fault because there might be something wrong with it?!?! No!! Just like it isn't your fault! I would never give up my baby or kill my baby. There is no question in my mind. I would raise my child and give him or her the best life that they could have. Blessings come in all shapes and sizes.
