Is it normal that i'm young and pregnant?

I'd vote adoption in your case.

I think adoption has to be the hardest choice of all :o( You really grow to love the child as it grows inside you and then you really fall in love when it's born. I admire those mothers who can sacrifice their love for the well-being of their child. It's so sad.

I don't condone abortion but it is probably the easiest option at this early stage :o(

I'm sure you will make the right decision.

Good luck. xx

Why are you 10?
You ARE ready to have a child, that's why you're pregnant.

Financially: Don't worry about it, people of the lowest income are usually the ones that have the most children. They are ALL still alive!

Emotionally: I'm positive you will love your own baby. Generally we learn how to love and depend on others at about 1

Mentally: Even mentally challenged people have babies. Its not about how smart you are.

You know for about 100,000 years or so, people had babies young all the time. We know they survived ok because that's why we are here.

If your only concerns are of how good you are for being able to have a baby and care for it, don't worry that's a natural MOTHERLY feeling.

Dear God is every where

Well adoption would be a good choice.I think that you should let a family member have custody of your child(ren) if you trust them well enough.It's your opinion.Good luck to you both.<3

No that kid will be living in a life of hell get an abortion I wouldn't wana live all my life not knowing who my parents were

I suggest adoption.

Hi,

I'm a single mum with 6 kids and had my 1st when I was 14, it is very hard and diffecault, the days are long and the nights are longer. You will need good support from your friends and family. I didnt from my family to start with (my dad called me a few names) but my freinds where always there for me but was hard when they where all going out, ect,ect.

You decided to lay on your back and do it unproteted so ts your responsiblity to bring up this baby. Always bring it up, never do an adoption cos you will always wonder why? then also in 20 years time the child will want to meet you and then you would have to say "I gave you up cos......"

Yep, if you wanna give the kid a fair chance - hope a good family adopts him/her.

Hey there,

I don't know your age, but I do know what it feels like to have children at a young age: I had twin boys at 18.

Fortunately I was able to support myself financially with a husband whom I was ready to commit to, and we managed to buy property near his family.
But it was perhaps one of the hardest times of my life, despite the upsides; my husband is Irish, and although I was living with him in Ireland, I knew that if I secured a life there, the twins would be my absolute obligation - so I suspected that I may never see my parents in England again.

In the Republic of Ireland abortion is illegal anyway, so I would've gone to England to have one - but I just couldn't, like you. Besides, my mum had an abortion, it took a while before she had me: it almost snatched away her fertility. So I agree; no abortions may be a good plan.

But I can't say I'm fond of the adoption plan either, I'm afraid! Like joybird says, in the nine months it takes to nurture your baby, giving him or her up would break your heart. I was never considering adoption for my twins anyway, but I know that after feeling two little balls of life growing inside me, the idea of letting them go just brought me to tears.

I know that I wouldn't have survived without John and his family...even though they're in-laws, they made me feel so warm and comfortable and helped so much all through the twins' early life - right up until now, at age 5.
So perhaps you could see whether or not your family are willing to give you some help - even if it is just financially. Maybe you could save a bit of money for an apartment, or your baby's upbringing. You might be able to get a job, if you haven't already.

You sound like a very bright woman! Adoption is a tough thought to face, even when every cloud is grey and you can't seem to find that silver lining - but it is unbearable to think about never seeing your child again, never watching it grow or nurturing it to adulthood. I'm practically in tears, just imagining being unable to love my children - to show them love.

I hope with a heartfelt honesty that you will make a choice right for you.

Please let me know how things pan out - and rest assured, every cloud does have a silver lining, even if you can't see it through the rain.

Good luck, lady!

Maybbe adoption is the right thing to do just keep in touch with your child if the new parents alow it and make sure your child it happy.

Keep it. It's yours, you created it and it's your responsability. There's always a way, especially if your family are supportive.

At least you're mature enough to admit that you're not ready, and to think of adoption. I applaud you. :)

Every time against abortion

Either go with adoption, or see if your family can help you take care of the baby. You sound like a good person for wanting your baby to have a chance at life. Do whatever you feel is right, it's your choice.

Have an open adoption.

The baby who opened eye God promise he will provide food and every thing I hope n recommend not abortion. If you Trust in God may be God show some light bye gave u some finance.
