Desperate... Help!
| Fri, 08-15-2003 - 6:02pm |
Okay... I've decided I'm pregnant. No more diddling around with "But the line is really really faint".
I don't know what to do. I'm only just married, my husband is unemployed, we *Just* moved to Florida. We don't have any insurance, and I work under the table as a nanny. My husband and I haven't really even discussed kids... To be honest, I don't think he even ever wants kids! My family, which disapproved of my marriage, will absolutely disapprove of us starting our family so soon.
I used to say I was pro-choice. I no longer feel that way. The idea of abortion, for me, for my child, is horrendous. For anyone else, I dont' think I'd care one way or another.... But this... This is my child, and I want it, as bad of a time as this is. But I know my husband... his ex wife had two abortions. His sister had two. His old girlfriend had two. He doesn't have any problem witht hem, and I'm desperately afraid that he'll want me to have one... And I dont' think i could take it... And my mother, she for sure will tell me I'd better have one.
How could this happen? I'm ON THE PILL. I've been taking it religiously ( after a few almosts ). What do I do? Is there low cost help for pregnant women? Anyone going through with a pregnancy no one else wants?
