I recently came to the conclusion that I might be with child..Because of the sudden weight gain, no show periods,and the many symptoms but i'm scared to go to the doctor. I'll be graduating in 2 months and although I want a baby I fell that because I know in my mind that I have to be atleast 4 maybe 5

I know the prospect of having a baby when you arent ready is very scary. I got pregnant with my daughter when I was 20 and like you single. But you do need to go to the doctor, because if you are pregnant than the situation isnt going to just go away on its own. If you want to keep the baby then you will need prenatal care to make sure that you and the baby stay healthy. Depending on the state, you could still get an abortion if you really feel you arent ready. I can tell you from my own experience that it is not as bad as you might think, its hard yes...but being a mom is amazing and I wouldnt change my decision to keep my daughter for anything in the world. I am now pregnant with my second child at 23. Your life will change but it will change for the better. Just make sure that you get to the doctor, everything will work out ok in the end no matter what your choice is.

I dont agree with an abortion, but that is my own opinion. You could always give the baby up for adoption if you didnt want to keep it because there are so many in this world that want to have
