abortion?

right; its really all a matter of perspective. Thats why abortion is such a personal choice.

 

Definitely.

And, it's important that people get that choice.

 

But you find it fair to bring a child into this world and then kill it before it grows and matures throughout life?

Even a hard, challenging life is better than none, my friend. Would you choose death over any of your struggles, even the hardest? I know I wouldn't. I think you should reconsider your position.

It's not like FAS and stuff are instant, it's chronic use of alcohol that causes it and many women drink and stuff without realizing that they are pregnant and then they stop and have normal children. It's not until later in the pregnancy that those affects are really dangerous. I definitely think that you should rethink- not necessarily change your mind, but know the facts about the decision you are making.

 

This you will have to live with.

This will be only temporary.

 

Mifepristone. It induces miscarriage. It works as a morning after pill too, and it works up until 8 weeks of pregnancy.

 

you know when you/I have dyslexia "abortion" looks like "adoration".. just thought I mention it...

 

Abortion sounds like a good idea given the circumstances. No, you're not killing anybody. In the early stages a fetus is nothing but a ball of multiplying cells. If you're not ready to have a baby then don't. You won't be doing anybody a favour by doing so.

You need to think with a head as clear as you possibly can, because adoption is not an easy option for anybody. I'm well aware that abortion isn't an easy thing to go through either, but since you already know that you're not ready to raise a child right now, you have two very different options. Abortion is not giving up a child. Adoption is. I know which of the two I'd find more difficult.

As for abortion itself, regardless of the procedure you go for (if you even do it at all), your girlfriend will be well looked after. She won't be in a lot of pain. You need to be supportive of each other; being pregnant comes with a whole bunch of emotions and hormones.

Good luck.

 

You should be discussing this with a doctor.

My brother's girlfriend recently got an abortion and she did find it painful and quite an unpleasant thing.

Personally I think you should do whatever feels right to you, don't let people guilt trip you into thinking you are a bad person if you get an abortion...

 

I personally think that while the "baby" is just a bunch of growing cells at first, it's still just an attachment of the mother. Sure it will get a "heartbeat" early on, but it's hardly a child yet and is still a bunch of cells that is living off the mother. It's entirely incapable of living outside the mother at the early stages, so because of that I don't consider it to be a true lifeform. But that's just my stance on abortion and whatnot.
