I think abortion is irresponsible. There are so many women...husbands and wives ttc and can't. If someone gets pg and they're not ready or it's an accident -- it's irresponsible. And, how could someone ever kill a harmless baby that has done nothing wrong? At least give birth and give the child up for adoption so that someone who can't have a baby can love it like it's their own.
I know abortion is something that everyone has their own opinion about, but I just thought I'd share what is going through my mine.
I am so sorry that yall are in these situations. Just last weekend I kind of had a situation of my own. This is what happened:
My brother(21) and his gf(20?) are pregnant. The gf already has an 18mo old son from a previous relationship. While I'm very excited to be an aunt I can't help but be jealous, ya know? Anyway -- the current pgcy is an uh-oh, unplanned kinda thing, but they're happy about it and keeping the baby. They both know the stuff that my hubby and I are going through and it's touchy stuff that I don't normally talk to just anyone about.
Anywhoo -- Just out of the blue my brother is like "Crystal and I have talked about it...And, if you can't have a baby we've decided to have one for you!" It caught me off guard majorly and I'm thinking they want to be a surrogate for hubby and me. Oh no! I was way off...They then proceeded to tell me that if they happened to get pg again after my neice is born that they'd just give me their baby!!
Now, you tell me...How irresponsible is that? I was mortified. I wanted to crawl into a hole and die or cry...either would have been efficient at the time. Seriously...if they weren't ready for another baby then they should have been more careful! I know that her current pgcy is unplanned, but I also have a feeling that it was due to their lack of responsiblity.
Girls, people can be so cruel. That's why we gotta stick together!! I'm so happy that I've found this forum. I've learned so much about IR and also I've seen that there are people out there with the same kind of things going on in their(your) lives as mine. I don't feel so alone!
Ok...that should be long enough huh? Thanks for reading if you actually got through that whole thing.
