Thoughts on abortion

Hello, It's been a week since I found out I was pregnant and confirmed in the polyclinic I went. An estimated prediction of pregnancy was 7 weeks. I had talks with the father of the child, he was actually happy about the whole pregnancy (he haven't think about the future yet, but was just happy that he could be a father). After a few days and confirmation of pregnancy, we had a talk about our future and also a referral to KKH for scans. I told him that if he did not want the baby, we should go ahead for abortion and not waste more money on scanning and all - which he did think and he also was given a few days to 'calculate' and think about our future. I was actually heading towards abortion because it was too sudden and we are not that ready both financially and because of our families (my family doesn't like him a lot and his mother don't like me at all) But because he was so happy earlier on when I broke the news, I was very invested in trying to ensure I take good care of my body for the pregnancy and maybe my thoughts changed for abortion. When he came back to me upon going through all the reflections and thinking, he told me maybe abortion would be a better choice for our situation. I was half happy because it was something I wanted but at the same time I cried alot at the choice he had also decided, it was maybe because I was so invested in this whole pregnancy I wanted to keep the baby - even though I am worried about the future. Please advice if it would be better to go for abortion instead of giving birth in this situation because I am torn on this.

Personally and there should be more people who don’t agree to abortion. Whatever may be the reason, baby are innocents, and how many couples out there are praying and wishing for a baby but yet they’re still waiting for the miracles to happen because im waiting for my miracles too. But, there’re people out there who just treat the baby as a “toy” which if they doesnt want their baby then they just let their babies go or go for abortion. There is always a way out. think wisely, like what others say, don’t regret in the the future. i sincerely hope you’ll think hard! And i feel if he really love you, he would have plan it out together with you and not agree to ask you to go for abortion too. Jiayou!!
