| | | Final Decision..
I or should I say we have made our final decision..
We're not going to go through with this right now. I realized that the decision I make is going to affect only my boyfriend and I nobody else.
So yes, were going to abort it 
I'm not happy about it, but I feel its best right now. |

| | | Nicole,
Only you & your boyfriend know what's best for you and I feel that the two of you should be the only ones who have a say in making a decision like this. I'm sure it wasn't easy and I wish you all the best. I know that you made the decision that's best for you.

I also feel this way. I feel lots of things because of my personal experience. I have no children today. I had a little son who died at almost 6 months old. I fought like he11 to keep him alive and well. But I also aborted a baby when I was 19 (4 years prior to my son being born). I'll never get over the guilt, other than to know that God loves me anyway. I'll probably regret typing and posting this, but, it's an open forum and I'm posting.

Don't ever regret your feelings or expressing them - especially when someone wants to be so open about their choice. When someone does that - it usually means they want to hear from other people. Otherwise, they would just be quiet about it. So by her letting us know of her choice should only welcome all responses, not just the supportive ones. If someone thinks that they'll only solicit joyful or supportive responses with an announcement like this - they need help. |
