here is the problem : a women tried for many years to get pregnant. now the miracle happend but there is another problem. she has a very difficult pregnancy and the doctor told her that is better to make an abortion because she risks to die when the baby will be born. what would you do if you were this woman?kep the baby and risk or think about your own life and maybe wait for another chance

im not going to assume you believe in God...but i do.I believe that regardless when you get pregnant if its ruff...its ruff.Just take that chance.If its your time,its your time.Killing your baby is not going to make things better.How would you feel if you did get an abortuion and then got pregnant again and the doctor gave you the same answer?You would have killed your baby for nothing cuz the complications were ganna happen anyways.I had a baby when i was 15 and i had to have a c0section.Well 2 make a long story short my doctor messed me up and i had a 20 pound infection,was in the hospital for 4 months laying in sdeaths bed.All i remember from those 4 months is hearing the doctor tellng my dad that i was going to die.Well obviously im still her.Then i got pregnant again and my doctor told me there were too many risks and i could die having my baby.I chose to take that chance cuz this little being inside of me didnt ask to be concieved and then killed.Well i gave birth...trhough c-section again.And everything turned out fine.My son is now 2 yrs old and im fine.Its all about when its your time to go.If god didnt want you to have this baby he wouldve never let you concieve.Every human being has a purpose wether they see it or not.and every person has the right to live.Look up this song and listen to it...it will change your mind.Its from nick cannon and its called "can i live"

I would have to weigh the risks. But my husband and i talked this over the first time i became pregnant. If its an option, I would try to get as far into the pregnany as i can, then deliver the baby early and have it in the NICU in order to give the baby a chance at life. Then i could take care of my medical issues. If that isnt an option, as i have other children, i would abort, im despratly against it, and would try to find every possible way to preserve both lives. Its only as a last resort that i could abort....

22 weeks, and only have a level 3 neonatal unit in my state, and its 50 miles from me. But at 22 weeks they are able to save a baby. 22 weeks isnt long to put off treatment for something. At 27 weeks pregnant now, my son is over 2 lbs and a foot and a half long. HE may have issues if born, BUT he would survive. :)

It's her choice to live or die. Same as anyone else. I personally would never be that woman since I never have any intention of having or wanting children, so I would never be "trying" in the first place.

That is a difficult dilemma! I think that the woman should take the advice of her physician.

what a pity! i once read a real story on a magazine.exactly like this woman,but she survived after she gave birth to her baby.it is really a miracle. but not everyone is so lucky.so we should be down to earth,if it is really dangerous for the mother,i suggest abortion. there are other ways to have baby,for example,adoption and test tube baby... think about it carefully.
