For the past 8 weeks I've been so set on having an abortion..my scheduled date is tomorrow... Now that it's the day before, I have the worst head-cold. I'm also thinking about keeping the baby. The dad has been really good to me since I've been pregnant..However he's in the middle of a court case, he might get put on house arrest...also, he doesn't have a job but claims he will flip burgers if he has to. Ugh this is not easy...

I wish I could tell you what I really think about this situation but it would be inappropriate because this is a very sensitive issue and my opinion does not matter.
May be you may want to revisit the reasons that made you decide to proceed with the abortion? And see if those reasons are still valid or as strong?

I am not going to get on my high horse and tell you that you should or shouldn't go through with this. This is your decision.

What I do suggest is a careful evaluation of your circumstances. That which might appear negative - can it be surmounted at all? What supports will you have should this baby arrive (for that matter what supports have you now?). What economic and circumstances will you be in? Are there other options to investigate?

I admit though that the situation with the father sounds very uncomfortable to me.

Finally, the institution which will perform this procedure will have available to you extensive resources and counseling to assist your decision. Contact them ASAP.

I would like to second revisiting the reasons you decided to go for the abortion. And go over the reasons you are having trouble now.

Also, having an abortion is a massive decision, and I just want to say that you may want to be positive that it is what you want. It is a decision that cannot be undone, and could affect you psychological health later on if you do it when you aren't entirely sure.

I hope that you are able to come to a decision that feels right for you.
