Abortion help

Hello, I'm new too all of this and I just need some advice as nothing seems to be becoming clearer in my head.. I found out I was pregnant 5 weeks ago and a scan has shown I'm 9 weeks. I'm 20 years old and I have a 14 month old. I currently still live at home with my parents and I don't drive, I do work but I'm not where I want to be in life physically or financially. I'm still with my boys dad but we don't have the best relationship so we decided 6 months ago to live Separately. I had an abortion booked in on Friday and I couldn't go through with it, I bring up my little boy basically on my own and I wanted to build a better life for him before I had any more children but stupidly I fell pregnant again. I'm so stuck as I would love nothing more to have this baby but either way I feel selfish for either getting rid of it as it's my own fault I'm in this mess or selfish for keeping it and it not having the best circumstances and whether mentally I'd cope with 2 babies under 2. I do have support from family but I know that people won't be happy if I do keep it. I can't think about anything else and I really don't know what to do, I've got another abortion booked in for Wednesday and Thursday and nothing is becoming clearer in my mind :( advice please ? Xx

First bit of advice : sod what everyone else thinks

Secondly it sounds like you want this baby, I don't think anyone is ever in the perfect position to have a child but if you have support and think you can do it and want to do it then do it

Have you spoken to the father to see what his view is? That could help
