I'm extremely uneasy about being pregnant at 22 being a bartender and not being in my own place. I've had thoughts about not having my kid...

You hear about people all the time who say that you will never be ready. I keep thinking that if I had waited a few months it would be much better. I keep telling myself that I would have to change things anyways so I might as well start now. I'd ask myself what you can do now to make things work better for you two.

You will be fine! Humans are resilient and have a way of making situations work. There is nothing wrong with being a bartender or having a non-traditional living situation.

My friend's little sister had her babies when she was 15 and 17 and struggling with life. She made it through the struggle, is a great mom and loves them dearly, and she'll be young enough to still have fun when they're moving out. Youth is on your side!

Ultimately the decision is yours and you should do what you think is best, regardless of anyone else's opinions or guilt trips or whatever. You're the only one who has to live with what you decide, so your opinion/decision is what matters most. Just give it lots and lots of consideration. And remember that adoption is also an option if you decide you're not ready to be a mom!

For the record, I'm 35 and not ready, and never would have been if not for a moment of poor decision making... I'm going to refer to this adventure in life as a "plot twist", hold on, and see what happens! Best of luck in your decision, feel free to send me a message if you need someone to talk to.

Definitely a choice but do not throw guilt on yourself. If anything you could be the miracle someone is looking for. Or your baby in a way! There is always open adoption. Anything you choose will be best! Best of luck 💕

Honestly the choice is yours. Think through fully and make sure you won't regret and explore all your options. Pick the one that best fits you.
