Abortion....
While I was at work yesterday I looked at my phone to see what time was it when I had five messages from my mom she found out that im pregnant... now this morning she told me that I need to go have an abortion. I'm 17 weeks and 4 days. But I dont want to have an abortion. But she doesnt understand and she says were going monday. Idk what to do honestly I give up on life already.

It depends on one's state as to when a woman can no longer have an elected abortion and it is up to 20 weeks in some states. So, check.
But it doesn't sound like this is what you want.
So, have you made any plans? Worries me that your mom is just finding out at 17 weeks. If you are keeping the baby, this requires a lot of planning hon. Or you could always give the baby up for adoption which can be a really great thing.
I think that parents have every right to be upset at the prospect of raising TWO kids when their teenager gets pregnant. But they can't force an abortion. However, you need to think long and hard how you will survive without her support. Because she doesn't have to support you in the decision to have a child.
Again, agree with above comments that adoption is a VERY good option for a woman in your situation. good luck

Excuse my intrusion but I looked at your older posts. You already named her, you already made the choice to go this far. And only you can make the choice to end it or go all the way to the finish line and be the mother you want to be. Obviously you have some income since you were at work, its just the support you seem to be lacking. And I understand that having support can be bigger than havi g income, and I'm so sorry that I stead of being happy for her grandbaby she'd rather force you to stop it from coming into this world. By law she can not, she can drive you there all she wants but if you tell the people I side she is trying to force you they will not do it, by law they can not. Its your choice and I wish you luck.
If you are afraid you can't support the baby you can always do adoption that will still give the baby a chance at life.
No offense but ***** her its not up to her you are legally able to decided what to do in your life its your baby. She needs to understand that you were woman enough to get that way so there for your woman enough to take care of your baby. With or without her help.
They won't do it after so many weeks . And if you 18+ , your mom has no say so anyhow . If she took you and you told them you didn't want it and they know your 18+ , they won't do it if you don't want it done .
By law your mom can't make you do anything. I'm not sure how far along it is when you are no longer able to have an abortion but that is completely left to you. If you don't want to give up the baby or kill it you don't have to. Don't let someone make that decision for you. They won't be the ones living with the pain an suffering from going through it. Wish you the best.
U can have one up to like 22weeks. I myself am against abortion but if u don't wanna get one u don't have too. No offence but ur mom has issues. U r a grown woman. I would laugh in my moms face if she told me that.
Your old enough already to make your own decisions your mom cant make you get one & either way i dont think doctors will do an abortion at 17 weeks
Do what you feel is right not what your mom says.! No matter how much you regret it the baby has no fault in your actions.! Be glad that god gave you an opportunity to experience life in a whole new and wonderful way.
Im 18
Um wait how old are you?
Its to late to have one anyways. Plus its your decision not hers.
