would you abort?

I would never "abort" a baby! Not for any reason! A friend of mine they told her to abort her baby because they said she would be a vegetable. Luckily she didn't listen to them and her little girl is for sure not a vegetable!

 

Make a pregnancy ticker

you should add a poll..... I think it migh be interesting....

My answer is no,  not for any reason.  In my opinion, God creates life and he ends it.... I have no right to interfere in any way....... I don't believe in birth control either tho... .so I would consider my beliefs very extreme on this subject compared to the average person.

I myself would never abort but I have two friends who did bc they didn't feel that it was the right time to have a child in their life. It sort of is a selfish reason (in my opinion) bc they can just put their child up for adoption. The first friend she did it so she wouldn't get kicked off the dance team the other friend did it bc she didnt think the baby's father would help her raise him/her. If I was in their situation..I wouldn't abort or put up for adoption..I have strong faith that everything will turn out alright in the end.

I am also a pediatric nurse who cares for special needs children in their home. I have met many families who chose not to abort when they were given the news that there was something wrong with their child. These families are one of the most loving families I have ever known. They teach others about compassion and what unconditional love is all about. I feel God's presence in these homes and it's a constant reminder that EVERY life is sacred and a gift..aborting would just be a slap in his face..

If I was ever raped and got pregnant as a result..I still wouldn't abort..the child didn't do anything..so why decide death on him/her?

The only time I would CONSIDER abortion was if my life was SERIOUSLY endangered by continuing the pregnancy. That's the situation that I can't wrap my mind around, I would not want to leave my kids and the new baby and everything else... but I don't know if I would be able to go through with an abortion because then I would have to live with that decision for the rest of my life.

 i think the only reasons i would are if i was raped, tubal pregnancy, some thing/reason thats wrong that could kill me...

I dont believe in abortion but Oct 2008, i had to terminate because it was an ectopic pregnancy in my tube. We did mutliple ultrasounds to make sure it was in my tube because i was very adament about not aborting a child that could not be seen and it was proven that it was in my left tube. I had the mexotricate shot which is like chemotheraphy that stops rengernating cells but it didnt work and my tube ruptured and i lost my baby, my left tube and over a liter of blood. I went into shock and almost lost my life. I was admitted to the hospital before I took the mexotricate because i didnt want to abort. It was my child. I loved it once i got confirmation that i was in fact pregnant. My doctor who diagnosed it did everything she could to make sure that it was in fact a tubal pregnancy. She consulted other doctors and everything. My left tube was dilated 3cm. not normal unless it was a tubal and it was. I would have rather died than abort it but i have 2 other kids that need their mom. Hubby and I started trying again the next month. I finally got pregnant in April and now 33weeks pregnant. Please dont bash me. Ive already beat up myself about it.

WOW- My mother was gay and I think that is the STUPIDEST THING I have EVER heard in MY LIFE!!! To me thats just as bad as saying I would abort if I found out that my kid had some black in her......EFFING RETARDED!!!

I actually already had an abortion about 2 or 3 years back. I had just gotten into a relationship with this guy a few months prior and neither of us had our children living with us. I was taking meds for a serious stomach issue I was having (I dropped 25 lbs in like 4 mos due to pain after eating). It was also an abusive relationship- we would physically fight, and he was horribly manipulative. By the end of our 3 year stint (Don't ask me WHY I stayed with that man) he had kicked me out multiple times, emptied $2k out of my bank account while I was in military training, blew me off when I came home on holiday leave, and slammed the door in my face when I tried to surprise him on New Years yelling "Get away from my door, I don't know you" b/c he had another chick there. There is MUCH more behind that story, but would take a book to get it all out, but that sums it up. I made the right decision for ME. I was able to join the military and get away from him, and provide for my daughter how I need to. I don't regret my decision, but I do think about the child I would have had all the time. I just had a miscarriage in Sept, and it brought back all feelings of guilt and pain- like I took the life I could have had for granted and so lost one I wanted... but I still wouldn't change a thing. 

JUST to note- I knew one girl who had FIVE abortions, back to back. That disgusted me. Abortion is a last resort- not a method of birth control. When I had mine I had come off hormonal birth control and we were using the contraceptive films. We weren't perfect about using them every time you start again, and CLEARLY you need to. 

This is my opinion and I don't force of push anyone to believe it, pls don't try and force yours on me! Bash me if you like- its not going to change things. And its not going to change my view on being pro-choice. 

Sorry to drone on so long ladies!  :)

oh hunny!  i am so very sorry.  I think God is gracious is merciful, and I do not think this can be considered abortion.  A tubal pregnancy is not a viable pregnancy, it is dangerous and 99% will end in death,  whether you make the decision or not.   I am so very sorry you had to go through this, please do not think that you should beat yourself up over a decision that was out of your hands to begin with.

God bless you, I think you did the right thing.

I have always said that I would never abort my baby but when i was 13 weeks with this pregnancy i did genetic testing and had a 1 in 150 chance that my baby had tristomy 18. I had a week to think about what I would do if the next test came back positive for it, and honesty I felt very torn. I came to the conclusion that I would probably abort because of the childs quailty of life. Please do not judge, everyone is different. and has different reasons for there choices. Thankfully the others test all came back great and I am having a healthy baby.
