Unexpected pregnancy, no idea what to do...

Hi- I hope this isn't an inappropriate place to ask for advice in this situation...
I am 21 and a student (2nd year of uni) and I just found out I'm pregnant. I have a boyfriend, but neither of us is even remotely ready/mature enough/we don't have decent jobs/any of the required stuff really. It is just hard to believe still... I went to hospital with intense stomach pains, thought I just had a bad uti and came out being told I'm pregnant?! I've been on the pill for 6 months so I really don't know how it's happened, I mean I've been on antibiotics but I was told they didn't actually affect the pill, but whatever it is is beside the point now... I don't know how many weeks I am as they didn't tell me at the hospital, but I'm going to the gp tomorrow (I obv have no idea what happens/what the process is).

I know from the outside there is an obvious solution but I just feel so unwilling to do it. I never thought I would feel like this because I know it is not an ideal situation at all. I have always wanted kids, I am not a 'career type' at all, but I'm too young, I'm not emotionally prepared, but I just don't know if I can bear to get rid of it. I don't know what to do... I need some harsh realistic advice right now. Any genuine/impartial advice would be amazing, thank you in advance and sorry if this is a sensitive/upsetting topic discussing possible abortion xx

Hello OP
DO you mind if we move this into our antenatal choices topic?
Thanks
