i was in a serious relationship for nearly 2 years which finished about 2 and a half months ago, i ended it because we werent getting on, since then i have been seeing another guy who i have slept with quite a few times. i got pregnant to a one night stand when i was fifteen and had an abortion and regretted it deeply.  Now i am pregnant again but i don't know whose the baby is, it could either be the guy who i was in a relationship with before or it could be the guy who i have been seeing...i am still good friends with the guy i used to go out with and am only seeing the guy i am with now i am not actually in a relationship with him as he doesnt want a relationship...what do i do?

You're responsible for it. You're the one who did it now you have to see the consequences. Now I never support abortion but dont impead it either. Allthough I think the only times that it could be used are when it's rape. Other than that I compleatly disagree with it.  I still do to that but it seems more reasonable. It will be hard I know but you have to know that you always will have help, as for the guy, INtimidate him. Let him now he too is responsible and see how it goes from there.Bes of luck to you and remember to make right choices. get freakky and hae sex and everything but be protectd. Gud luck,

if you go to the doctors thay can tell you how far gone you are and you can most likely work out who is the father but i think you have to decide what you want. i know the father might want the same thing as you but if he doesnt you follow your heart hun. if you feel you need to talk pm me been through this with 2 close friends x

Well really, what exactly can you do?

Realistically, you may not be able to tell but I suppose a good way of looking at things is to see where your last period was. If you had one since you broke up with your first boyfriend, then the chances are incredibly weighted towards the baby belonging to the second boyfriend.

If not, you need to go to the doctor and have a scan to find out how many weeks you are. As I'm assuming there was no overlap (you weren't having sex with both of them at the same time), you might be able to pinpoint things from there.

If neither of those ideas help, your next options are obviously more complex. For starters, you're going to have to decide what you're going to do with the baby. As you said, you regretted your first abortion but are you really ready to have a child? Are you able to care for it? Support it?

I suggest either way that you tell both guys whats going on and explain the situation. Should you choose to keep the baby, you may (although I'm not 100% sure) be able to have test that will allow some of the baby's DNA to be extracted (before its born) and then it can be compared with DNA from each of the guys so you'll be able to work out who's child it is. Alternatively, you can wait until the baby is born to have the test done.

Finally, getting pregnant once may have been an accident but doing it twice? I really suggest you learn how to use condoms properly as well as giving birth control pills some serious consideration.

Tell both guys because you need support.

If you're considering abortion again, please think it through carefully. Even if you don't feel you could support the child, it could be fostered or adopted.

It depends what you want to do. You don't have to do anything you don't want to. But ask yourself these few questions, does knowing who the dad is really matter to you enough to have an abortion? After having your last one, you said you regretted it, do you want to feel like that again? Are you able to support the baby financially?

Just think about it, it's a big decision.

Well, the first thing you're going to need to do is tell the guys what's going on.  They might be there to support you, or they might run off, but either way, you're going to need to know if they're going to be mature about it now, the earlier the better, so you can best look at your options.  One of the things you're also going to have to think about is your future, and if you would be able to support the baby.  Think about your financial situation and talk to your family about it.  Are they supportive?  Do they know about your last pregnancy?  Would they be willing to help you out?  Do you think you would be able to support the baby?  At the same time, you're going to want to think about college and having a good job.  Some teen mothers are able to handle being a mom while going to school and working, but for many others, it can be really difficult and a lot of times, they end up dropping out of school.

You basically have three options:  keep it, abort it, or give it up for adoption.  I know that your abortion from your last pregnancy is something that you regret.  Do you think you would be able to go through another one?  If you don't want to go through that again, you could always look into giving the baby up for adoption.  They even have open adoptions, where you can pick the family to raise your baby, and you can even visit the baby sometimes.  It's a good option to look into.  

If you decide to keep it, you can find out who the father is when the baby is born by having the guys involved take a paternity test.  

We can't tell you what to do or what to decide.  Everything is up to you, and you have to choose what's right for you.  But it is important for you to see a doctor, talk to the possible fathers, and talk to your family.  They can help you decide what's best.  I feel for you, hun, I really do.  I know this must be a very scary and difficult situation for you.  But stay strong, you can get through it!  And don't listen to all the judgemental replies here.  I wish you luck in all of this.

if its the guys baby that youve just gotten out of the long term relationship with, is it getting a bit too late to consider abortion? im not too sure on how many months it is until they say that the babys to far along.
this is a decision that you can only make yourself. its good to hear that you are still on good terms with your ex, this means if you decide to keep the baby, the child can grow up without the bitterness between its parents. im not saying that you will get back together with your ex because you are pregnant, but that being on speaking terms is a good start!
its such a big desion to make.
i wish you the best of luck with it. ive had a pregnancy scare before, and even though it turned out that i wasnt, it was so scary, and i felt so alone, even though my boyfriend was right there next to me the whole time, giving me a shoulder to cry on.
good luck, hun

okay, she had a one night stand when she was 15. she had sex with a guy that she went out with for 2 years. and i suppose as a 'rebound' slept with that other guy. i dont call that sleeping around. when you say 'sleeping around', it makes it seem like she's sleeping with a different guy each weekend, when all we know is that she's had sex with three guys so far. whatever the case is, how about offering some advise rather then judgment?

well theres always the option of paternity test to figure out who the father is, but i would advise to be honest with both guys and tell them u arent exactly sure who the father is and that you will know once the baby is born, if u decide to keep it. but seeing how u felt bad about your previous abortion i would think you are keeping it. either way the choice is up to you and you need to make the decision and be honest with them.
