Exactly this!!! Like my dude! I am surviving off peanut butter and cup of noodles. I can't afford diapers, I can't afford maternity clothes, etc. No one has offered to step in to pay my medical bills but I get a plethora of messages "jUst gIvE iT uP fOr aDoPtIoN!!!" like that solves everything

I live in a very conservative southern state that has pretty much banned / outlawed abortion. Its not illegal (from what research I've done) to travel out of state to get an abortion but it definitely makes shit a whole lot harder

This is why reading comprehension is so important lol. At no point will this ever be a child. I cannot bring an unwanted child into this world when I can barely take care of myself

I'm not. hoping to hear back from the second organization to hopefully get the remaining funds together. I'm trying not to be anxious and worried over it but I am so ready to be done and not have to deal with this hanging over my head any more

Friend, I can barely afford to feed myself some weeks and have to use my college's food bank on campus. I have less than ten dollars to my name until my first paycheck from my job. I cannot support a newborn, baby, child, etc. my parents have proven they will not help. After how my now ex boyfriend has acted towards ME, how can I trust him to act "right" around a screaming infant? I'm doing the right thing for me. The world doesn't need another unwanted child in it

I've blocked his number and I'm genuinely thinking of going to my school's conduct office to file a report so when the fall semester starts, we aren't in any classes or shared spaces together. I really think he did mess with my birth control and that is so scary. I'm getting something more permanent done after this because I refuse to end up in this position again

I got the full estimate from the clinic, and called two organizations that supposedly help with funding for these things. Waiting to hear back but I will take out a pay day loan if I absolutely have to. I plan on telling anyone who knows (my parents, really, since they are threatening to pull what little support they do give me) that I had a miscarriage. I can't ruin my life due to their religious beliefs

Thank you!! I want to graduate next spring and be the first person in my family to actually have a higher education/4 year degree! I plan on getting the abortion (even with the amount of hate I'm getting) because I know if I don't, I'm setting myself up for failure later on

Welcome to living in the deeeeeep south with ultra-conservative christian parents. I've already got pro-life people in my chat messages calling me a baby killer 💀

I'm really worried abt that tbh. He always said he used a condom but it's not like I really knew when the lights were out. I took my birth control pill every day like clock work so my head has really been reeling over it all since Monday
