And first of all it was my decision to have an abortion because i didnt want the baby to live a shitty life! I wanted to be able to take care of it and it not struggle like my family has. I have gotten a job and i have grown up! And i'm ready! Im not asking for you to tear me down about my dicision i made when i was 17! I want some infromation about the baby now! Woman do have a right to make that decision! Think about how many people dont get abortions and the 15 and 16 and they end up on the street with there baby and it goes down hill from there. So everyone has there own opion on this topic but i have a choice and i wasnt ready. So please stop giving me hate answers!
Thanks

I think that you will be just fine to have a baby now. I had my first at age 17 and my second at age 20. My mom still helps out a lot, but I am a single mom, and I do the best that I can. We live in an apartment, and they have all of their needs taken care of. You just have to be willing to put them before you sometimes!
And don't worry about what other people here say about you getting an abortion, You had a choice, and you did what you thought was best for you. No one here has ever walked a day in your shoes and they have no right to judge you based solely on a decision you made!!
Good luck and I hope things work out well!

Yeah,you will be fine. I had an abortion two days after my 19th birthday. Had a miscarriage at 21 but they said it had nothing to do with the abortion I had, it would have happened anyways, the child just wasn't developing correctly. Now at 23 i'm 30 weeks pregnant with a very happy and active little boy! Don't worry sweetie,everything should be fine!

As long as there were no complications with your abortion I don't see why it should cause problems with your current pregnancy. Once you know for sure that you are pregnant, when you go to your Dr. for the first visit discuss your concerns with him & he should let you know if you have anything to worry about. I have a family member that had an abortion, then had 2 healthy kids after that.

Yes, the abortion should not affect this pregnancy. But you need to tell your OBGYN about the abortion, esp if your blood type has a negative factor. Then there could be some complications, but ONLY if you don't tell your doctor so they can provide proper treatment! You will be fine, be honest with your doctor. Good Luck with this baby, I'm taking it you want this one!

i am sorry to hear you felt you had to have an abortion at 17.
this pregnancy will depend on whether the abortion went smoothly, and whether or not they hurt or scarred the lining of the uterus when you aborted your first baby.
let your dr know about the abortion and any complications you may had had after it. I hope and pray you never feel the need to abort another child. a child is a gift from God. (sometimes he sends them by way of others....i.e. adoption)

That all depends on if you want this baby, just because you had an abortion 2 years ago it wont affect this pregnancy, Congratulations if you are and Good Luck

Ask a doctor.
Every woman is different.
Only a dr. can tell you the side affects of having an abortion and how it can affect future pregnancies.
GOOD LUCK! HOPE YOU KEEP IT THIS TIME!

you shoul dbe fine, I would make sure to disclose that information to your OB so that he or she can make sure to check you for any cervical weakness, or any ealry sign that you would have a probelm carrying this baby to term. Good luck and take care!

You should have been okay with the one when you were 17. There is no magical age where a person suddenly has an epiphany and grows up and lives for their children and not themselves. Its a choice a woman makes, a choice to want her children and to love them.
Only you can make that choice. And sadly your children are the ones who suffer from your selfishness.
Good luck with that.

If you're not ready to accept the responsibility of raising a child then you shouldn't be having sex.
