17 and pregnant... what do I do
First off, I apologize to anyone who believes that I am extremely stupid for having pre-marital sex or just a stupid teenager in general.
I have been dating my boyfriend for 2 years, having sex for just about three months now. I am a 4.0 student in school and don't have anything near to a social life. I grow up in an extreme household with both parents being physically abusive and a father who is extremely mentally ill. I am supportive of people who choose to keep their pregnancies, however, I am not wanting to do so.
I have too much of a future that I would like to achieve and would not want to go through a pregnancy that I will not have the ability to be the best parent I can be. I want to be a mother, just not at this time in my life. I want a stable life for my future children and would not be able to provide one as a teenager. You may be thinking to yourself, if you want to achieve so much in your future why did you choose to have sex? Well, I have no good response to answer that and agree it was a stupid thing to do.
My plan for today was to go to my closest Planned Parenthood and talk about my options. I am assuming I have been pregnant for 3 weeks at the very most and have been continuing to take my birth control pills. I don't have much money but I am willing to pay all the money I have to terminate this pregnancy.
I would just like to know if anyone has experienced a teenage pregnancy, abortion, or the fear of being pregnant and what you did/what experience did you have?
