My period is just over two weeks late.
I have not taken a test yet, but I am going to try as soon as I can.
My mother knows, as does my boyfriend.
My br___ts have been very tender for the past 2-3 weeks, around the time my period should have happened I had some minor cramps. I have been tired, and bloated.
and most foods sound gross.
My real problem is, though, that my mother does not want me to keep it, if I am pregnant.
She says I am too young, and have a lot more to do with my life, which I understand.
But that utterly breaks my heart, I don't know if I'd be able to live with myself if I did that.
My boyfriend feels similarly to her, but is supportive with whatever I choose.
What do I tell her?
What do I do?
-Heartache.

I had one at 17, and i really didnt want to do it at the time. I didnt feel I could confide in anyone, except my boyfriend who pushed abortion on me to some degree. I did it and it messed me up mentally for a lot of years- the first few years of which i didnt even realize why i was so messed up. I have healed now, though I now have 2 children and would never do it again. Sure, it got rid of me not having to give birth to a baby when i would have just turned 18... but big deal I ended up pregnant (with the same boyfriend, then husband) exactly 2 years later and gave birth to my first child at exactly the same due date i had 2 years earlier. I guess its different for everyone, though I could never advise an abortion. I dont believe they are right, and I know first hand how it affected me. There are many options- some that seem like they would be so hard, but better than abortion.

Thank you,
I definitely agree.
I don't think I could ever do that (have an abortion).
