Deana answered Saturday September 1 2007, 11:43 pm: Im just telling you about the abortion part. omgosh please dont do an abortion. Im sorry, but theres always adoption! This is your child no matter what. Dont just throw it down the drain. Adoption! It will go to a family who does want it! And that other person who said that " the baby can become a killer" uhm... okay, uhm no. its a baby!? And it can become good??? just do adoption. your a mom either way.

SinDelle answered Saturday September 1 2007, 8:58 pm: It is really too soon to tell if you are pregnant, unless you get an hgc hormone level check via blood screen. Any urine test results would not be viable yet. You have to at least have missed your period for them to work, or be close to getting it. A week and some is not long enough to tell by any other way but a blood test.
I'm not going to tell you to get an abortion or not to but I am going to tell you this: pregnancy is preventable. If you don't want to get pregnant, there are ways to prevent it. If you are having unprotected sex (which obviously you are, since you think you're pregnant), pregnancy isn't the only thing you have to worry about. There are many, many STDs, which can cause smelly, discolored discharge, itching, burning and scarring inside you and can make future pregnancies difficult or impossible. Some STDs are incurable, such as herpes or genital warts (HPV) which cause visible sores and/or warts on your genitals. To be blunt, that's gross. Anybody who sees them will know you have a sexually transmitted disease. And they NEVER GO AWAY. And some STDs can kill you, like AIDS, HPV (which has been shown to cause cancer in some instances), or syphillis. And some STDs have no symptoms for a long time and then you give them to other people, or they progress to the point of no return and you never even knew you had an STD.
Abortion has been shown to cause scarring, too. It has also been shown to cause remorse, grief and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) in most women who have one. I know many girls who've had abortions (some more than one) and I have to tell you, I can honestly state that they all regret it. I'm not saying have an abortion or don't have an abortion. I'm saying don't get pregnant. I'm saying don't contract an STD. I'm saying don't have unprotected sex and you won't have to worry about any of it.

They say stuff like "that child could grow up to cure cancer" well, that child could also grow up to be a killer. It's your choice. It would be awful for a child to grow up with a parent that didn't want them. [ baachan's advice column | Ask baachan A Question ]
LOL_x0x answered Saturday September 1 2007, 11:55 am: I hope you're not seriously considering this.
If there is one thing I am strongly against more than anything, it's abortion. Please don't get an abortion. It's taking the life away from the child, before it's even been giving the gift of living it. You're killing your own child, before you even got to hold it in your arms for the very first time, and see it smile up at you.
And you never know, that child could grow up and find the cure for cancer. That child could grow up and end world hunger. That child could grow up and change the world. That child can make a difference. That child has a reason for living. You might think I sound crazy, but why not give this baby a chance?
Please, at least have the baby and put it up for adoption. The best gift you can give to this child, is the gift of life itself. Don't take it all away before it's even began.
dancedance42 answered Saturday September 1 2007, 11:15 am: I agree with the girl below me. How can you be so heartless as to KILL a baby. You are MURDERING an innocent child.
If you don't want the baby, put it up for adoption. there are thousands of couples out there who can't have a baby and would love to bring yours into their life.
If you have any conscience at all, you won't get the abortion.
kristen22 answered Saturday September 1 2007, 11:05 am: Go ahead, rate me a 1... I have no sympathy for people like you. WHAT IS SO WRONG WITH ADOPTION?
YOU KNOW THAT, THAT IS YOUR CHILD THAT YOUR OH SO WILLING TO ABORT? THAT'S HORRIBLE.
-The child, who cannot exercise its own will, is killed. And, in order to make the killing more palatable, the baby is called a "fetus", or "non-viable", or "not yet human", etc. This eases the conscience. But, for those who say the baby isn't 'viable', have you ever seen a sonogram of an abortion? You can see the 'non-viable fetus' retracting from the instruments of death and seeking self preservation. It wants to live.
SuperDuperJess answered Saturday September 1 2007, 8:26 am: If you wanted an abortion you would have to book. You can find some on the Internet i think and possibly in the phone book [if you ahev one]. You shoudl tell your mom. She coudl help you out more that i can.
