I don't know if I'm ready for a third child, but I wouldn't end the pregnancy or give it away. I'd love it...Cuz sex is the leading cause of babies.

I'm not ready for a baby but I love my husband so much, I could never get rid of something created by us. I'd have to just grow up I guess!

I haven't had sex in over a year, so yeah...

After trying to get pregnant for the last 4 years, I would keep mine & everyone else's babies, if I could!

Under no circumstance would i keep it. Then again, i believe in taking precaution to avoid getting pregnant in the first place.

sex is the leading cause of babies... HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Even if I get disowned by my family, I'd keep the baby.

Well I wouldn't be to happy since my boyfriend and I are not in the right place to have a child. But since it would be with someone I am madly in love with....I would keep it and try to make things work money wise.

Well, I'm 20 years old which is still a little young to be getting pregnant. Most of my friends have had babies and they are my age! that's a scary thought. I'm not a baby person but I would definitely keep it because it's my responsibility and It's a life.

I don't believe in abortion so I would keep it.

"Sex is the leading cause of babies" - Fragiletearz, you need a prize for the quote of the day!!! LOL

Back to the poll question...

I'm with PinUp on this one. I love my boyfriend dearly (yes we got back together, i'm a sucker i know!) and I know that if anything, he'd be an excellent father and provider.

I don't think I am 100% ready for a child but i'm 25, have a stable job, great benefits and the support of my bf and family. It might not be ideal (i.e. married for a few years and lots of money saved up) but i know it would work out.

Since I do not want children I would have an abortion. Although I would like to think that I am responsible/smart enough to put myself in a situation where that would be something I would need to do.

btw, my answer would probably be different if i were 18/19 in that i'd choose abortion.

for some reason, i know that if i got pregnant at 16, i would have kept the baby but that's cuz i was pro-life back then. college (and seeing a few friends have abortions) made me re-think my position.

I'd keep it. I don't plan to have kids in the near future, but I'd still keep it. However, I'm careful with birth control, so I think it's really unlikely I'd get pregnant... also my boyfriend has decided he's stressed and doesn't want to have sex, which also helps.

I really have zero clue.

I'm 25, been with my bf for almost 4 yrs but I just don't know if I'm ready for a baby. Then again I try REALLY hard not to be in that situation.

AHh...i dont know what I would do. I might have to think about it for nine months. lol

Scary thought. I am not at all ready for a baby, but I would like to believe that I would keep it.

you left out one key choice: i'm already pregnant!

(i have 2 weeks and 3 days until my due date and i'm counting down the hours

Considering I'm currently 5 1/2 months along, I'd think "well duh, have you seen the size of my uterus lately?"

I love kids, I have three, we would keep the baby but be seriously upset at my doctors about my $700 IUD!

I am in no way financially ready to have a baby, but I am in love with the man I am with so it wouldn't be a problem that way.

The only thing that would upset me is that a. the condom didn't work, b. my birth control crapped out, and c. there are so many more things I want to do in life that would be much easier without a baby.

I'd have to talk to my boyfriend about it first. Either way, I'm going to need money from him if I keep or get rid of it. So I'd sit down with him and figure something out. It could very well end in abortion though since we're pro-choice and unmarried.

I would be SHOCKED! For numerous reasons! lol

so funny- my hubby and I are thinking about that right now- whether we want a third or not. If I got pregnant we would keep it, but I honestly am not ready for that third quite yet. I am unsure right now but feel like it was a blessing and keep it. The kids want another baby around.

All the best and congratulations to our expecting popples!

Jinx, the man in your av is mine, but even with him i wouldn't have one.

My first reaction was "I would kill myself" but then I realized, nah, I'm 30, in a weird country, and love my boyfriend (who wants kids someday), and just saw Big Daddy again two nights ago.

i'd keep it. i think part of being sexually responsible is understanding the risk (even slight) of getting pregnant and as an adult you should accept that responsibility. however, i am taking every precaution that i don't have to worry about it.

I personally wouldn't get an abortion, so I guess I'd either keep it or give it up for adoption. But I honestly don't know if I could give a baby up for adoption. I love my two kitties so much I can only imagine how much love I'd have for my own child. Plus, I'm financially stable, and have a wonderful partner who would be supportive in every way.

I'd be so happy. Maybe then my boyfriend would propose!

well, im not ready for one right now by any means, but im in a long term stable relationship, and we're both finacially stable, so i would have no excuse NOT to.

just about 5 years earlier than i would like! haha

i would keep it bc after being on the pill for 6 years, and being good with taking it (i think in 6 years i missed a pill...three times?) i'd have to keep it bc it just means i was meant to have a baby

I have already given this much thought - but I would have an abortion. Where I am in life is not stable nor suepr successful. It wouldn't be fair to baby to let him/her grow up in the condition I am in now, or (if worse came to worse) without a daddy.
So, yea I wouldn't have it...

I don't know what I'd do. I didn't plan my first, but he has turned out to be such a blessing...Although, seeing as he's 15 now, I don't feel like I'm in a good space for another child. Being pregnant though might change my mind.

I wouldn't have an abortion for sure. I don't pretend to tell others what they should do, but I do know that's not an option for me.

I'm such a control freak though, I don't know if I'd ever be able to find a person I thought was good enough for a child of mine.

Ugh, this is a hard choice.

i'd be so excited! although shocked since i had my tubes tied years ago after #3. my dh would be thrilled as would my girls. lots of their friends moms are having babies right now (read last week, yesterday, any minute now) so they think we should have another one too.

awwww, now i feel a little sad that i'm not

If I were married, I would definitely keep it. Since I'm not, abortion or adoption would be an option...

I'd keep it but I wouldn't be happy about it! We're done!

I would cry !! I don't plan to have any baby for at least 4 years so it would be hard to digest.

But I'd keep it.

I would have to talk to my boyfriend for sure, but I would be prepared to keep it. I love children, and I would be so overjoyed.

Definitely keep it. We've been talking about trying to get pregnant sometime next year. It would just be moving up the timetable.

We are not planning on having a baby for a year or two but i would honestly be thrilled if i got pregnant. I love babies and everytime i am with my 1 year old niece i am so happy, she is awesome.

I had a kid at 20, had an abortion at 23, and am now considering having a kid again. We talk about it for the future (next year) but if it happened now, I think I'd be keeping it. We all have our reasons. Sometimes timing is everything.

Abortion without a doubt. I wouldn't rely on any less than a combination of two methods of birth control to really reduce the risk, because abortions aren't fun and games, obviously. But pregnancy and giving birth would be worse. Sustaining physical injuries and dying is more likely in pregnancies than abortions. That kind of risk is very much not worth it for something I don't even want.

As far as I'm concerned, the only valid reason to have a child is if you want a child. Not because "well, I don't really want a kid... it'll work itself out somehow!" or "oh, we don't even like children... but I'm in love, so I'm sure we will love it once it's here!" or "hmm... I haven't really thought about it... so I'll just give birth and see what happens!"

Not a swipe at anyone in particular, I just think that's the kind of lack of logic and forethought that leads to tragedies like people drowning their kids then committing suicide (Recently, a woman threw herself and her kids off the roof of a tall building in my town. They're all dead).

Maybe this is just silly of me, but I don't consider a just-met sperm and egg as equal to a newborn. If I'm in a burning fertility clinic with a little kid and millions of fertilized embryos in a jar, I would save the kid's one life over the millions of "human lives" in the jar. I know, I'm crazy like that. So I seriously doubt I'd be wrecked with sadness and guilt after an abortion like some propaganda out there swears is the truth for every woman. I'd just feel like my life was saved and all is right with the world again.

i'm 19 studying dermatology and i'd keep it. not bc of the whole "i love my bf!!!" but just because i personally could never justify an abortion in my head. they way i see it is im a grown ass woman no excuses! haha like my mom says "if you're old enough to have sex, you're old enough to deal with the consequences."

i agree loose seal im pro-choice- no one should have a human life forced upon them-- but people rarely ever get an abortion when its just "cells". some times the baby could even live with out the mother if necessary at the point of abortion. no judgement.. i did a 14 page research paper on it last semester and i really wish i hadnt :/

Late term abortions aren't an option here so the baby could live agrument doesn't work with me.

Luckily this isn't a concern thanks to my IUD. 10 years of all clear! Without hormones, even!

Hmm..i think it's kind of sad that the votes for abortion are almost up there with keeping it...

Its not the best timing.. we were hoping for 4 more years (enjoying us time) but if something happens wed be thrilled
