i am 24 and hold a bachelors and masters. i am in my first year of teaching
and have dated a wonderful man for 2.5 years. i felt different and couldn’t remember the last time i had my period, so i took a pregnancy test. it turned positive so quickly- i panicked. im世界杯2022亚洲预选赛b组 tely, i called my boyfriend and we went to planned parenthood together to confirm. it was indeed positive; 4 weeks along. it feels completely surreal right now, like i’m in a dream.

we both discussed our options, and termination seems like the logical choice. i am from a very catholic family and telling them of pregnancy outside of marriage (or abortion) is not going to happen. i have my abortion scheduled for saturday. i can’t eat, can’t sleep, and can’t focus on work. i am going to feel relieved when this is over, but i am very conflicted about the morality of my decision in light of my upbringing. neither one of us is ready for a child. we’re educated and generally upstanding people. i’m just terrified of what my long term emotional needs will be. i have scheduled time already with a therapist for post-procedure.
