Sweetie, how old are you? Do you have family nearby that would help you? Being a single mom is so very hard, but it is possible! You have to do what's right for you. I cannot imagine what you are feeling right now and I wish I had some magical words of wisdom that would make this all better. Has he said why he doesn't want another child? I sincerely hope he is worthy of you and therefore concerned about your health - both mental and physical! This is a very hard decision. Take your time and weigh your options. But if you WANT this child then you have to be willing to fight for it - just like you would fight for your daughter. It's a part of you and a part of him. Please let me know how you're doing and if there is anything I can do or any specific advice that I can offer - please ask! I wish you the best of luck!

A baby is a gift from God. If not for you, then for someone else. If you do not want this baby (and it IS already a baby) give it to someone who does. If your boyfriend loves you he will respect you and not push you into doing anything you don't want to do. You have to be strong and do what's best for your child.

I can only imagine what you're going through right now. Being a single mother can be hard, but it's also very rewarding. Even through your boyfriend doesn't want your child, the decision is really up to you. It's your body. You said that you want it, but he doesn't. Like I said, it's your body and if you really want it, then you should keep it. This is just my opinion, but if he cares about you, then he should respect your decision to want to keep your baby. The two of you should sit down and really talk about. There are plenty of women out there who would love to have a child, if you choose not to keep your baby, you should seriously think about adoption.

Shevan, you known that ulimately this is your decision. There is no greater love in his world than a mother's love for her child. You must remember that for the fathers of unborn children the reality of an impending birth usually does not come until much later in he pregnancy. For women the reality is immediate. If in your heart you believe your child deserves a chance in this world, and you are willing to make the necessary sacrifies that come with having 2 children, then my advice would be to leave him and go raise your children. I hope you find strength from the other women who post on this wonderful site, b/c I know that I have. Good luck, and please keep us posted.

I dont think anyone has a right to tell you to have this child or not have it. Noone knows how you feel and the decision is all yours. Don't have the abortion just because your boyfriend wants it, you may end up regretting it inthe long run. Take the time to think about whats right for you.
