QuestionI don't really know what I want to ask. I've been looking on the internet all morning for answers but i know i will only find it within...but it's just not there either. I'm 30 and have had 2 abortions in my twenties because I felt like I was not ready emotionally, financially, mentally, spiritually, in any way. I'm 30 and still feel like a teenager, still struggle to make a living, make mature decisions. I've been in a relationship for 4 months and 2 days ago discovered I'm pregnant again. Within the first hour of finding out, I decided that the only option was another abortion. But then other thoughts began creeping in and since then I have been in a state of torment. I still feel very unready yet something is saying "maybe nows the time". Who am I to reject life 3 times? I have a beautiful 9-year old niece and saw my sister raise her as a single mother and how it changed everything about her life... everything. I love my niece to bits but I don't feel like i am capable of or want to raise a child. Selfish? Yes. But thats who I am right now. Would it be right to raise a child when you don't want to be a mother?I don't know if my boyfriend and I are going to be together for years to come and I don't want to do it alone. I wanted to wait till i was married.
If you could give me any words of wisdom or refer me to someone who can, I would be very grateful.
Thank you.
