I recently found out that I am 5 weeks pregnant. Though it was not planned, it is welcomed. I am 26, and have a Bachelor’s and am enrolled to get my Master’s in the Spring. I NEVER thought I would be a single mom, especially if it wasn’t the result of a divorce or death. But here I have found myself facing probably the most challenging choice I will ever make. The partner (who I have already decided I will not pursue in any way) wanted an abortion and has verbally tore me down for wanting to keep my child. The furthest thing was to keep HIM, but I knew from the moment I saw the two lines on the HPT that I was ready to be a mom. Well anyway, the last week has been an emotional roller coaster. I haven’t told anyone but my best friend who is also 7 1/2 months pregnant. And I am dreading having to tell my parents (who’ve been married 30 years) that they will be having their first grand baby by the 4th of July. Though this situation is far from ideal, I hold onto the conviction that even though the MAN I created this child with was not the “right” person, that doesn’t make the child wrong. So, that is what is keeping me strong in continuing the pregnancy. I just wanted to share this…I know it’s not a question but I would love to hear any of your personal accounts if this APPLIES to you. If it doesn’t—I don’t honestly think you can empathize, which would only leave you to judge and this is the wrong post for you to be on. God Bless~
@Corporate Zero—My hats off to you. Thanks for being a man. Your child has a wonderful father.
