    We have a 3 year old and a 4 year old. I turn 43 this year. I am tired. Very tired. Saying that Im fairly sure I would proceed with the pregnancy. I would of course be worried about complications that come with age and the impact that would have on my two girls.
    But I suppose being someone who has suffered pregnancy loss and didn't think it would ever happen would make up my mind.

    This is me right now. Found out at 6 weeks. It wasn't planned nor prevented. My hormones have been all over the place and I googled my options in the first few weeks.

    I'm 11 weeks now, and myself and himself split up during the week. I'm gone passed the abortion pill stage and I do want this baby, but I'm very alone now. I don't have family nearby or friends with kids or even planning kids.

    FML is apt.

    You're never alone. You poor thing. Sorry to hear about your relationship ending. Nothing is ever as bad as it seems and no matter how alone you feel, there's always people out there that love you and will help you, all you have to do is reach out to them. Mind yourself.

    I'm married and have two already, one is only 6 months old, I'd be delighted though :) my husband would be really happy too.

    I was 17 when I found out I was pregnant on my first, my mother insisted I get an abortion. She said either I terminate the pregnancy or I leave the house. I had nowhere to go, but wouldn't even consider an abortion. She said i was ruining my life, but it was my life to ruin, and let me stay.

    24 now, two kids, married, own a home. Abortion wouldn't be a choice for me, unless my circumstances changed drastically.
