I think this is horrible. If you so choose to keep the baby how do you think he/she will feel when she they grow up to know what kind of gamble was taken on their life. Much less to know that they were really not wanted. It makes me upset that you were even able to conceive such a precious gift when there are so many more deserving people out there who cannot. The fact that this even real makes me sick. I think you should have the baby and give it up for adoption to a family who really wants the child and will love it and not make such a public gamble with it's life. I am also sad for the child who would someday grow up to read this and the toll it may take on his or her life. For the future if he/she may ever come across this please know that you are a truly special gift and life will always have idiots like the ones who concieved you but it is my hopes that you are in a greatplace where you can look past this and learn to forgive. I hope you know there are many good, honest, caring people in the world that would give anything to let you know just how special you are. You guys shoul be ashamed of yourselves.
I understand that you had three miscarriages and are concerned about being pregnant. I'm sorry for your losses. You are in good hands though--- NaProTechnology, a new women's health science helps women who are at a high risk of miscarriage. Even now, doctors trained in NaProTechnology can help you. Please contact a NaproTechnology physician. Visit Dr. Thomas Hilger's website for more information.
Of course pregnancy can be challenging; however, you will never regret it. Holding a babe in your arms is the greatest wonder in a woman's life, and also for the man, too. Please get all the support you need. Pamper yourself. Take care of yourself. And, I look forward to when you post pictures of you and your baby in the upcoming months. Much love, kindness, gentleness sent to you and your husband. Take care! --Mamie
Think about your own life, how you have known love, life, etc. Are you not happy someone didn't end your life over some self centered reason? I love the fact you put up these polls so you can see how against killing babies people really are. Why stop at babies right? Why not just kill anyone you hate, dislike or don't want around you any more.
So what happens when you have to take care of your parents when they grow old and become a burden on you as well? Gonna kill them too? You see just because something is easy doesn't mean it's the right thing. Love LIFE over Death!
Love God. Accept Jesus Christ as your pardon for sin.
John 3:16, John 3:36, 1 John 1:9
I thought you would find this interesting. Every baby follows the High Holy Days of Israel to the very day as they develop from conception to birth. www.levitt.tv/media/watch/516
pro-choice advocate speaking here:
this is disgusting.
If you're so great douche bags, that you let others to decide such an important thing like this, than ÿou should have abortion and God help every poor child which will you have in future. How could be anyone so stupid to let people who he/she doesn't even seen or know decide this kind of matter? If this is where is the Internet heading then fu*k it. How can be anyone so ......dumb?
Being pregnant and learning about this site today I'm absolutely disguisted and really emotional that someone could trivialise the life of their unborn baby, you're not fit parents, give birth and pass the baby to social services so they can find a loving home for the little one.
I wouldn't give you a puppy let alone a baby
My vote is for the baby. It sounds like deep down you want one, since you've been trying so hard. I have a 3-year-old, and I can tell you, they really are awesome. If you do choose to keep your baby, I will be praying for an easy pregnancy and birth for you. I'm sorry that so many people have chosen to take a low road here. As a Christian, I'm sorry about all the hateful comments. That's not what Christianity is about. The bottom line is, abortion is an option in this country, and many more women than anyone wants to admit have explored the idea if not committed to it. It's understandable that you are nervous. It's a huge decision.
"Thou shalt not kill."
You people don't deserve to have the beautiful life that exists inside her. Simple as that. Can we abort YOU and keep this wonderful, living, thinking, dreaming, smiling, feeling child somehow?
A wonderful, little life created in the image of God :)
I can hear her talking with a friend
I think it's all about me
Oh how she can't have a baby now
My mommy doesn't see
That I feel her breathe, I know her voice
Her blood, it flows through my heart
God you know my greatest wish is that
We'd never be apart
But if I should die before I wake
I pray her soul you'll keep
Forgive her Lord, she doesn't know
That you gave life to me
Do I really have to say goodbye
Don't want this time to be through
Oh please tell her that I love her Lord
And that you love her too
Cause if I should die before I wake
I pray her soul you'll keep
Forgive her Lord, she doesn't know
That you gave life to me
On the days when she may think of me
Please comfort her with the truth
That the angels hold me safe and sound
Cause I'm in Heaven with you
I'm in Heaven with you
A Baby's prayer by Kathy Troccolli
God blesses you with a baby and you would kill it? Do you know how many people in this world would love to have children but can not? To kill your baby would be one of the most self centered things you can do. For crying out loud give the child up before you kill it. Someone will show it love if you are unable.
It is not the baby's fault. Why punish the baby by not giving it a chance to live? Crazy people will protect Murderers and Animals but won't have the heart and love and consideration to protect an unborn baby? Pro-choice is a sugarcoated way of saying Pro-Abortion or Pro-Killing, but they dont want to say that b/c it sounds bad. It sounds bad b/c it is Bad. That's what it is. The "choice" was in having unprotected sex. You both already made your choices, now let the baby have a choice of how to live its life.
Lo dire en español pues es mi idioma... Esto es una total inmadurez! Si fuese una violación, si fuese otro tipo de problema dificil de resolver tal vez tendria un poco de comprension pero esta mujer simplemente es una perra inmadura que no quiere ser responsable de una vida que ella misma creo! MADUREN ESTUPIDOS!! MUCHAS MUJERES QUIEREN HIJOS Y NO PUEDEN TENERLOS!! FUCKING IDIOTS!
I'm sorry you've had several miscarriages. Our family had one. It was tough for me (husband) but harder on my wife who had to carry the dead child for a few days until a D & C could be performed. If you choose to have an abortion and later have a child, the abortion will hit you like a ton of bricks when you hold your first baby.Also, I don't think you are really going to make a decision like this based on a public vote. If you do have the child and do not want to keep it, I (like several others) would be willing to help find a great home for the baby. I also think this is an interesting experiment. As you said in your blog, it's one thing to be generically "pro-life" or "pro-choice," but another thing to have an actual couple ask you to cast your up or down vote on an actual developing baby. I am adopted and, personally, am quite glad my mother didn't abort me. I have a friend who is a survivor of an attempt to abort. He, too, feels the same way even though he has some unusual physical characteristics. I can't put myself in your shoes as to whether or not you want this child in your life at the moment. But I can tell you that this is a wonted child, a valued child. So I voted for birth, as I would for every child regardless of whether the parents desire the child at the moment.Hey, BTW, looking at the vote, I bet we'd have a lot less abortion in our country if every person who was considering aborting a pregnancy put it to a public vote. I bet the number of abortions would drop to nearly zero! (not that I advocate that, of course, it's just interesting to note)
You people are sick, if you didnt want to have kids then you shouldnt have spread your legs in the first place. Their are plenty of people out their that cannot concieve a child. If you really do not want the child put it up for adoption, cause god knows you cant take care of it apparently.
First I hope that this site is only sick joke of somebody, or it is created to see how people will respond.I hope so that this crazy people do not egzist . You are sick, you need help and you need it fast. If this baby come to this world it should be taken from you. Milions of couples all over the world can not have children and they will give everything to have one , and you idiots is making a joke of this. Why you didnt make this site to ask should you f... without protection. this fetus y is 20 weeks old!!! what were you waiting , what were you thinging IDIOTS.
Dear Pete and Alisa,
I do not agree with your methodology in the least. Voting, while being an awesome responsibility, cannot be a replacement for by oneself discerning the right thing to do in a situation and then actually doing that. That being said, I promise to pray for you both, and Baby Wiggles, every day until your decision on December 7th, and beyond. I am sorry that many people have been nasty to you in the comments. I can understand how your way of going about this is incomprehensible to them, but I do not condone their lack of compassion toward you.
-Heather
Look if a fetus can't survive on it's own outside the womb at any given point then you have the choice to make as a woman and as a couple. Don't let these bullies scare you with their sensational abortion pictures because they won't be there when you are in the thick of it and it is not easy to parent. So you have a right to do whatever works for you. Be healthy and be well.
How Utterly horrifying is this site?
I am pro choice don't get me wrong - I am also 20 weeks pregnant.
The thought of an internet Poll deciding the fate of an unborn little baby boy sickens me to the core. If you don't want to keep your child then have him adopted, there are millions of people that would kill to be in your position - If you do end up having this little boy then i really hope he is taken away from you and given to a more deserving family - as you are not clearly not fit to own a dog let alone be parents.
God wants this baby if you don't. The thing is this baby will go to heaven...are you willing to face it when the time of judgement comes? Make no mistake, all those who have not received Jesus as their savior will be judged for their acts on this earth and then sentenced to eternity in hell, but before that, you have to stand before God and see your choices in life flash before you...are you ready for those consequences? I say FIRST CHOOSE JESUS AS YOUR SAVIOR AND EVERYTHING ELSE WILL FALL INTO PLACE....then decisions like this won't even be an option!
Here is a message from the other side of the Atlantic - you are both f**king idiots. I am appauled and gobsmacked that you have even thought about this, let alone followed it through and set this website up. It is truly foreign to me that you could actually be putting the life of your unborn child in the hands of people you don't even know. I lost my baby to premature birth last year and here you are playing with the life of a child. Some of us have watched our children die and had them taken away from us when they were so wanted and so loved. Others, like yourselves are just retards. I hope this baby gets taken away from you and raised in a family that loves him and raises him with proper morals. I feel like setting up a website where people can vote to shoot you in the head. Pricks.
you should abort yourself. you are both human garbage!
PLEASE DO NOT HAVE AN ABORTION. THIS IS JUST RIDICULOUS. IF YOU DONT WANT THE CHILD, YOU CAN STILL CARRY IT TO TERM, AND THEN DO A CLOSED ADOPTION AND YOU WILL NEVER HAVE TO HEAR FROM/OR SEE THAT CHILD AGAIN.THERE ARE MANY PEOPLE WHO TRY TO HAVE CHILDREN AND ARE UNABLE.
THIS IS NOT THE CHILDS FAULT. I VOTE FOR LIFE. THE BABY INSIDE YOUR WOMB IS HUMAN.
¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡PLEASE DO NOT HAVE AN ABORTION!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
you have got to be absolutely nuts... this is a very very VERY personal issue, not something to be spread all over the face of this earth, you've gotten the attention from people in ENGLAND?! my goodness... congrats on your claim to fame which everyone disrespects you for. i've always been pro-choice, if a person needs to abort, they need to abort. but like so many before me have said, the fact that you've made it so public is astonishing. and you're already THIS far in the pregnancy, seriously just give it up for abortion. at first it sounded like you were afraid to have another miscarriage which i can understand would be a very sad thing... but to read on about your selfishness etc? if you CAN have this baby, if it's able to go through with a birth and live, then do that and give it to someone who cares (because as many have also said - it would be in the best interest for you to NOT take care of this poor child in the future)... and if it ends up that you have a miscarriage, well, yes it's hard but at least you tried, and at this point it doesnt even sound like you'd care too much if you were to miscarry... ugh i can't even think straight this is so gross what you're doing... absolutely and utterly appaling
My heart breaks for the grief that you have already suffered due to the deaths of your 3 previous babies. I had one miscarriage, over 10 yrs ago, and some days the loss of that child feels like it happened yesterday. We now have 3 beautiful, healthy children who I would not trade for anything. I know the grief of losing a child through no fault of my own - I cannot imagine the guilt and suffering caused by choosing to terminate an innocent, helpless being. Give your child the chance to live: no matter what happens, I promise you will not regret it. You may even give birth to the absolute love of your life or someone else's. Choose love over fear.
I think you should have the child and put it up for adoption. How is your kid going to feel when he or she eventually finds out that you debated abortion, especially publically? Probably the same way that I felt when my mother told me she debated it as well; totally unwanted and unloved. Is that how you feel about the baby that you and your husband created? That you hate it so much you would rip it from your womb prematurely? I hope from the bottom of my heart that you do the right thing: either give the baby up for adoption or decide to love it with all your heart and keep it as your own.
First of all, your honesty should be commended. There are many people who will not admit they are too selfish to have a child. HOWEVER, your responsibility is not commended. If you did not want children, then you should have taken medical action to prevent it from happening. There are many couples who long to have a healthy child to love and nurture. Please give them the opportunity to do so. With a loving family, this child could grow up to be the doctor that finds a cure for cancer, a scientist who discovers how to fix global warming, or maybe just a decent every day person that will change the world by touching lives here and there and by being a good person. Please give your child a chance with a family who will love and adore him. Here is your chance to do something that is not selfish. This could be your contribution to society.
I don't know if this is even for real or not, or if you are just some sick minded person wanting to create a ruckus. This just shows the toilet that the world is going down is flushing faster. You are truly not worth the people's time who are commenting on this. So, I will end my comment. You know what kind of sick demented trash you are, you will meet your final destination someday and see how wrong you were. I will pray you find the Lord before that as I know He wants all his children saved.
this is disgusting...u 2 idiots dont deserve a dog much less a child...u are looking at this baby with a beating heart on a ultrasound and still want to know if you should kill this beautiful innocent baby or not???? u deserve to be tortured for being this stupid...i pray God takes this blessing from you one way or another and never shines his mercy on you again...u dont deserve it!!!!!!
I see you've had miscarriages and so carrying this baby raises concerns; primarily emotional. Having been through this myself, I understand how scary it can be getting pregnant after having a miscarriage. The emotional turmoil you go through with a miscarriage is awful. This you had no control over. To abort a baby is a choice to end this life. That opens an entirely different realm of emotional distress that you would have to deal with. This you do have control over. When you carry this baby full-term, and hold your child you will not regret the decision to see the pregnancy through and therefore, all emotional hurt is healed.
I sympathize with the pain of your loss in your miscarriages, and I understand that the grieving process for those babies you lost takes time, but you have been given a huge blessing in now having a healthy baby. You are past the time when most miscarriages occur. Please accept the blessing you have been given, rather than having yet another lost baby to grieve--this one by your choice.
If you decide you aren't ready for a baby, making an adoption plan will give you the freedom to carry on your life without children, while giving you the satisfaction of knowing you did the best thing for your baby.
These people are sick!!!!!! I wonder how they would feel if their parents did this to them????? What a bunch of idiots if you don't want the kid, people who can't have kids would want the baby. It just goes to show all the ignorance that our media portrays..... This is truly sad
I commend you two for taking the time to think this through, although I hope that the resutls of this poll is truely not the deciding factor. Just because you may not want to be parents does not mean that you would have to abort your child. There are thousands of people out there who want to be parents and could provide all the love and support that any child would ever need. Adoption is a win-win-win situation. You would not have the responsibility of being a parent (if that is indeed what you want), you would never have to live with the regret of aborting your child, a loving couple would have the child that they've longed for for years, and most importantly your child would live. My husband and I have been struggling with infertility for a few years now. We want nothing more than to be parents. Like thousands of others out there, we would love to be the parents of your child. No matter what the results of the pole is, please consider adoption. I will be praying for the life of your precious baby and that you two make the right decision.
JEREMIAH
CHAPTER 1
Jeremiah Called to Be a Priest
The words of Jeremiah the son of Hilkiah, of the priests who were in Anathoth in the land of Benjamin, 2 to whom the word of the LORD came in the days of Josiah the son of Amon, king of Judah, in the thirteenth year of his reign. 3 It came also in the days of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, king of Judah, until the end of the eleventh year of Zedekiah the son of Josiah, king of Judah, until the carrying away of Jerusalem captive in the fifth month.
The Prophet Is Called
4 Then the word of the LORD came to me, saying:
5 "Before I formed you in the womb I knew you;
Before you were born I sanctified you;
I ordained you a prophet to the nations."
Darling there's no such a thing like perfect parent! But your fear of being bad parent makes you a good one! Give a birth to this baby cos one day you'll be proud of what you've done even if you in start feel guilty that you're working, not breast feeding, giving it to grandparents to watch it or even have a nanny...mothers need help and that not makes them a bad one! Woman have to feel happy and fullfil. If father can do nothing why mothers have to feel guilt when they get help as much as they need? The fact is that women don't want to have kids cos they think that they couldn't bear to be full-time mother and those who are 'perfect moms' now or then said that they done all job on their own and feel tired from life, they sacrified all life and time ecc... Girl give a birth and get all help that you need! First comes your necessities, cos when you're happy then the others are for sure!
I can't believe that you are even considering abortion! By having planned pregnancies, you obviously want children. Why would you even consider abortion, especially at 16+ weeks?! At this point in your pregnancy, this fetus is a baby, and there's no denying that. I understand that there is a lot of pain involved in miscarrying, but why not celebrate how far you've made it and look forward rather than putting up a poll to see whether or not you should abort your unborn child! If you're even considering abortion at this point, you should not be parents, please consider adoption. There are many couples out there that are unable to have children of their own that would obviously make better parents than the two of you who are considering taking your own child's life based on an online poll. This is absolutely disgusting.
Also, have you done everything in your power to prevent a miscarriage? Were you on progesterone supplements in the beginning of your pregnancy? I don't think that this website and media coverage would qualify as preventative measures. My husband and I struggled through infertility treatment and were scared shitless that we would miscarry, but abortion was NEVER an option! You are sick people!
Have the baby but don't be parents - I will adopt him/her from you.....
Please, please give this child a chance. Give birth. If you so decide then you can give him/her up for adoption. Please...
you should have the abortion and then both of you should be "fixed" so you can never be in this situation again.
I just hope with all my heart that you are a pro life couple that wants to shock all people pro choice, otherwise you are just crazy people
Please DON'T. I would love to be in your shoes. My husband and I have tried to have a child for 8 years and lost 6 babies. We tried IVF but it did not take. I hold each ultrasound picture in my head and heart dream of what could have been. If you don't or can't care for the child, then please find a family that will love and care for him or her. Life is precious. We live in Minnesota and would love a child with or without our DNA. I beg of you not to abort but it is a choice you and only you can make.
Give birth and put the kid up for adoption. People like you have no business raising a child. You make me sick.
Please have another poll. Suicide. Should you kill yourself for being peices of human garbage. I vote yes.
Why on earth would you want to leave the life of your child up to complete and total strangers? why dont you just give birth and give the child up for adoption if you dont want it. Im not religious but i am prolife. i just dont believe in killing a child for the parents state of mind. if you didnt want the child you shoyulndt have had sex to begin with and gotten pregnant. what kind of heartless idiots are you?

Please put yourself in fetus' position. How would you answer the question if you were the fetus?
you know what..its so disappointing to see you two act like your unborn child is no big deal. If you honestly have to make a sick poll about having this baby maybe you should of thought about that before you tried having a baby..
in my opinion you should have the baby girl and give her up for adoption. if she were to ever grow up with you two and found out you took a poll to have her or not do you really think she could ever forgive you. how would you feel if your parents did that to you. i hope you do whats best for this little girl...its bs that shes going to have parents like you that could care less. i would think if id miscarried id have more compassion about my baby that is making a strong fight to get into the world instead of worring about having to end her life because you want to be selfish. go soak up your bullshit 15 minutes of shame..
As someone who has suffered multiple miscarriages, then gone on to have several viable pregancies and has 3 great kids, perhaps it would have been easy to step back and say it just wasn't gonna happen. We are not a religious couple, and feel that every woman makes her own choices....but from personal experience as someone who also just felt it wasn't worth the emotional pain to "try again" let me tell you it was worth every heartbreak to get the family we have now.
It seems as if you have had several miscarriages. Why not wait and see if you'll have another one. Chances are that you do, it will be cheaper that way.
I hope you don't abort your baby or (let's call it by it's real name) 'murder by mob-rule'. I also hope that you don't 'parent' this child yourselves. Please give this child up for adoption - you may not want him and wisely question your abilities to be a parent, but that is no reason to throw your baby onto a rubbish tip somewhere like yesterday's rubbish. His parent or parents are out there somewhere waiting to love and nurture him. That these parents aren't you is obvious, but don't compound your ignorance and lack of dignity for human life by deciding to attempt parenting this child yourselves, if he manages to survive the pre-natal period of his life despite your best, selfish, deluded and sub-human efforts.
My anger isn't about the fact that you are considering abortion (my personal opinions obviously veer towards pro-life). Abortion is a real and painful dilemma for many women. My anger concerns your glib, self-publicising, almost pathalogical flippancy, disregard and disrespect towards the life or death of your own son. I've seen animals display more human spirit than what is evidenced by this low, despicable example of the absence of humanity.
I am pro-life and voted for life. This is a complete outrage to create a poll to help you decide whether or not you should murder your unborn child that GOD formed in you. I pray that you make the RIGHT decision, which is to have the baby, but I also pray that your child NEVER finds out that you created this poll. How do you think that will affect him or her? How sad. Jesus loves you and your baby. If he/she could talk right now, I'm sure he/she would be begging you for a chance at life. "Mama, Daddy, please, give me a chance to love you. To live....laugh...cry, and be a blessing to you.......I won't let you down."
I've had an abortion. Trust me, the regret for life far outweighs the short 9 months of being pregnant and giving the baby up for adoption. And what an awesome gift for someone else. Everyone already knows your pregnant, just give the baby up.
You should absolutly have an abortion...because, the world is a mess, and who wants to give life in this horrible mess ?
Also, if yous ask such a question, you probably already know the answer...don't you ?
GB
Many people would love to be in your shoes now who can only wish to have a child You selfish wankers, maybe we should put u both on a pole and submit u to torture just like your unborn child will have to go through. You will become public enemy no:-1. I hope if you have this poor child that he grows up and shoots both u fuckers. My only hope is that god takes the decision out of your hands and removes your womb.
As much as I think you people need an abortion, it sure would make for a good time, to have the kid then show him this thread, say about 12 or 13 when they're getting plenty insecure in themselves.
Do the right thing, period. While I do agree with the majority (to give birth), they are NOT the ones to decide this very important issue. It's a life inside of you, separate from your body. I truly pray you seek God in this. You will not regret having this baby (there are options if you can't afford him or her). You WILL regret taking this baby's life.
As someone who has been struggling to conceive I cannot at all support an abortion in these circumstances as your are already clearly aware of the welfare of your child you must be able to appreciate that instead of give birth or abort it should be give birth for me or someone else. Either way the baby gets to live and live well. I am not saying you will be bad parents but spare a thought for those of us who's heart breaks every month when we arent as blessed as you.
Although I am pro-choice in this situation I do not believe giving birth and giving away will cause you more harm than the regret you will no doubt feel if you abort. But give you a better feeling about yourself at the end of it when you have given THE most precious gift on earth to someone who will truly appreciate it.
I think you should carefully consider your option.
you're really crazy Americans.
that decision is yours alone.
but if you do not know, it's because you're not ready.
have a child, it is not the same as buying a car.
Then select abortion, it will be best for the child, saw your intellectual level of stupidity

First excuse my english, I'm from France and I do my best. You may have already answered this question, but from here, in France, I do not understand why asking people to make this decision. Why do you need to be insulted by people that you don'teven Know ? Anyway, I won't vote because I don't think I have to tell you anything about your life. As most of French, and europeans, I believe that both decisions are respectable... Here we're just chocking by the idea of voting about it. And if you decide to have the child, I really wonder what he or she's going to think in 15 or 20 years as reading those pages on the web...
I am in utter shock. Do you not realize how blessed you are to have an angel growing inside you? There are too many people out there that cannot have children. If the child doesn't mean anything to you, then give him to a family that wants him. I have 3 couples I know that are struggling to adopt because they cannot have babies. Don't kill this little angel. I am sure that if he had a say he would say he wanted to live.
13 For you created my inmost being;
you knit me together in my mother’s womb.
14 I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made;
your works are wonderful,
I know that full well.
15 My frame was not hidden from you
when I was made in the secret place,
when I was woven together in the depths of the earth.
16 Your eyes saw my unformed body;
all the days ordained for me were written in your book
before one of them came to be.
Not sure why you are asking about what you should do, but please, have this baby! I have had two abortions, two miscarriages, and three live births. I finally woke up after the second abortion...it tore a hole in my heart. I started volunteering at a Crisis Pregnancy Center, helped other women who had abortions. Very sad :( I have since been healed by the grace of God Almightly, but you never forget. Went through counseling for the abortions, helped alot. Please let us know when your baby is born!! I will be praying for you both.
you are sick in the head!!!!!!!
I saw your website and story on the news this morning and felt compelled to vote and comment because I feel so strongly about this. I am absolutely sickened by this website and that the two of you could not come together and make this decision like two grown adults. What's most deplorable to me about this is that there are countless married couples and single women desperate to get pregnant and would do anything to have this chance. Then the two of you want to have a debate on whether or not to terminate a life? I am as pro-choice and liberal as you get, but this crosses the line. My vote is that the two of you have the baby, and then give it up for adoption immediately because you are clearly not aware of the blessing you have been given or deserving of such a gift. Also, please stop this public debate because if you do have this child one day - they will have to learn at some point that his or her parents allowed hundreds of thousands of people to know that they may have never had the chance to live.
I pray for the health and safety your new baby and his/her parents. A couple thoughts:
Since death can not be undone, choose life!
Your baby may become the doctor or researcher that finds the cure for cancer or other diseases - please give him or her the chance.

I hope 1) that the vote is "give birth" 2) that someone has kept a record of this site and gives it to the innocent kid when he/she grows up and 3) Have a new vote in the future with your kid doing an internet voting for whom of you two he/she should start cutting your flesh out FIRST and whom, SECOND
Have the baby and give it up for adoption. How dare you terminate a life out of your own selfishness. There are many couples out there who can't have children that would give this child the love that it needs and deserves. You obviously aren't fit to be parents if your stupid enough to do something like this. My heart goes out to your child.
I have my own opinions on abortion, but I wont get into that right now... My vote reflected it. I just wanted to say that I can't wrap my mind around how you can rely on so many people you don't know for one of the most important decisions you will ever make in your life. If you do have the baby, what if they come across someone who remembers this. I mean, will you explain to them that their existence is the result of a vote by the general public? I mean, I am sure they would then be thankful for the general public's opinion, but what kind of relationship will that leave you to have with your child? You are setting yourself up to be resented by them. So, I guess, that I just hope that this is a publicity stunt and that you aren't actually relying on the poll. Maybe you figured it would lean one way, so just did it for the attention. I don't really know.There is not a doubt in my mind that if you have the baby, you will love it like you never imagined. I figure if you aren't against having it enough to have decided abortion on your own, that if you have it, you will want to keep the baby. However, I think adoption is also a good option. Even if it isn't a publicity stunt though, just an idea that this may be what you want to tell your child one day... "Of course we wanted you. We were bored one day so we made the poll." That is the best advice I have. I hope you make your own decision. Best of luck.
Hi,I know it is a difficult decision for you but you clearly do not want to be parents and have no love for this child. I'm pro-choice but I think you will find it hard to bond with this child if you have him. I would strongly suggest giving the child up for adoption, you'll do the morally just thing and you won't have to be parents, which honestly, I don't think ye are cut out for.
It must be heart-aching for parents who are trying to adopt to see this poll, do the right thing and give the child to people who will love them and can be selfless.

I vote for ADOPTION! You don't deserve to have a child! God has given you the best gift and you are so cruel to create a webpage like this to decide on the fate of this unborn BABY. Yes it's a BABY with a heartbeat. If you do have the baby I hope child services remove the baby from your home since your obviously UNFIT to parent and give the baby to a loving couple who is unable to have a child but so desperately wants one. Your pathetic souls, use a fucking CONDOM or better yet tie your damn tubes because the world would be a better place! LOSER!
Add me to the list of people who would be totally serious about adopting the baby. We have a loving home and one adopted child already (a boy, 9 years, who we adopted when he was 5 months old).
I read about your "poll" on a UK newspaper website and found it pretty grim & distasteful. I'm pro-choice, I don't have any major issues with abortion in the early stages of pregnancy and I DO believe that you have the right to do as you wish. BUT, using your pregnancy as some kind of sick publicity stunt is just plain wrong. If you are THAT unsure that you have to ask for people to VOTE, then in my opinion, you are neither mature enough nor mentally stable enough to be able to bring up this baby boy - and never will be. In which case, either get it over and done with and terminate your pregnancy before he grows any bigger, or have the baby, put him up for immediate adoption and let a kind, loving, mentally-balanced family adopt him and take care of him. I'm sure that even if you DO decide to go ahead with the full pregnancy, your baby will be (quite rightly) taken from you and placed into immediate foster care until a thoughtful, unselfish, decent family can adopt him. I can't help thinking that this poor child would be a hundred times better off with a new family, rather than growing up to be some kind of messed up loon under your care. I can't believe that you are prepared to go to such ridiculous lengths to get yourselves in the media spotlight - and for what? For money? To upset the anti-abortion groups? To get a reaction? It's very sad to think that money and fame are more important than the tiny life you have created. I hope the money and the publicity are worth it in the end.
I vote for life. The baby inside your womb is human, just as much as you and your husband are human. You have to ask yourself if you think it is EVER permissible for you to kill a living human being. Would it be OK to kill your husband if he caused you stress? Would it be OK to kill a child who won't stop crying? The baby in your womb is just as real a person as anyone you can look at and touch, just in a different stage of development. If you choose life you will have done everything you could to nurture your child, even if you should lose it before term. If you choose death, you will not only end the life of your child, you will injure yourself and your husband. If you think you are emotionally fragile now I shudder to think of what the knowledge that you have killed your own child will do to you.
I'm really glad to see that 80% of the pop who voted, did so in fact of having the baby. Having an abortion, KNOWING that your baby has a heartbeat, seeing the pictures and the videos they make this baby a person, and for you to leave the choice of having this baby and an abortion up to the public is ridiculous, and childish regardless of age. If you feel you can not parent and raise her, than give her to a family who can NOT have children. I read one of your posts and what stuck out to me was TEST RESULTS WERE NORMAL, NO COMPLICATIONS WERE HAPPENING. the ONLY reason (I dont find this valid either), to have the abortion would be is if you have a medical condition that you or the baby would not make it NATURALLY. however, saying that everything is good and healthy I strongly believe you will regret this if you do not give birth to "wiggles" and give him/her up for adoption.
I'm with many other people in saying I really HOPE and PRAY this is a joke but this day and age something tells me its not, and its a chance at fame. If you get this fame you so strongly desire, it wont be the positive fame you want, your going to have a negative connotation on your names and for a lack of better terms right now, thought of as "complete assholes" who lack the responsibility. I had my daughter almost 4 months ago, I was and still am scared shitless of not being able to raise her as she deserves but quite frankly I am do it, a hell of a job at that, and cried at the thought of just giving her up, let alone aborting her. To think of the world not graced by her is uncanning and impossible. Yes its life changing, but you will regret your choice.. .. .. YOUR CHOICE, if you base it on public OPINION. Thats like saying "if John Doe told Jane Doe to kill herself, john doe is not responsible" leaving this important PERSONAL decision up to the public, the public isnt going to suffer from your choice, but emotionally, mentally and im sure physically you will suffer from the loss of aborting some miracle.
If you cant raise this child that you and your partner created out of an ACT of love (and i say an act there of because its not always love that makes people have sex anymore), give her up after shes born and give her a fighting chance at something you had, a life (good or bad), but give her that opportunity. I cant fathom leaving this enormous decision up to people you dont know or have an honest trust and understanding of. I personally think you guys are mad and crazy for it.
I was that person who was not sure if I ever really wanted kids or not. I was a little older & enjoyed my freedom. I got married and decided to start a family. All I can say is it was the BEST dicision I ever made. I LOVE being a mom. You won't believe how much love a child brings into your life. Maybe you should think about giving the BABY up for ADOPTION if you decide you don't want children-please don't have an abortion. :(
please do everyone a favor and abort yourself. even if its 30 years too late
Give the baby the change to live. Give in to and adoption agency to a nice Family that are willing to give the love that apparently you don' t wanna give. Don't be selfish about it! The baby counts!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Give it a change to live!!!!!!!
It is also sad that in times like this u are thinking this way !
for two years i've been trying to have a baby and had to use IVF to conceive, now i'm 24 weeks pregnant and so happy! and you morons have the nerve to come out and do this. it's people like you that don't deserve children. if you don't want children there are products to keep you from getting pregnant. WRAP IT UP! you can also give the baby up for adoption to a couple who can't have children and want one. the baby would be better off. Your people are Sick! people like you shouldn't have babies!
Jesus loves you and your unborn child. I hope that you give birth.
Look, I know I'm just one in a sea of negative comments, but there are people who would love to have a child! It is precious gift and you have no reason to abort! Abortion is murder, especially when the parents are young professionals who are mature enough to have a child and lucky enough to be pregnant! I am not fortunate to have one of my own and to see someone who is pregnant be willing to throw their child away is disgusting and shameful. Murder is not a "choice." Don't throw your child away like garbage. When that baby is born you'll be ashamed you even thought of aborting it. Thirty is the perfect age for a family! Please, have this baby, or let a loving family adopt it. That's all I have to say.
It's sad to even think of aboring your child. What did the child do wrong? Nothing. If you two aren't capable of raising the child, give the baby up for adoption. It's funny how if a drunk driver were to crash his car and kill a pregnant mother, he would be tried for a double murder, but if a mother aborts her own baby, there is nothing wrong with that. That's such bologna. For the sake of the child, have the baby.
Does the baby get a vote? I got a pretty good idea on how the baby would vote.
I voted for the 'Give Birth' option. Having said that, I think the baby should then be adopted by someone who really wants kids and will give him the love and care he deserves. The fact that you're so undecided that you have to put it to the public vote makes me think you really aren't ready to be parents!
Some of the comments here are wrong and judgmental. I am a pro-life Christian and have my beliefs; however, its wrong for me or anyone to judge your decision on this. It's not ours to judge, only God can do that. Doing a poll on the web is non-conventional...but what is conventional any more? If my words here mean anything, make the decision that you feel is right for you and your family.
People want to make judgments on you, but some day we all have to face the consequences of all of our decisions. I have done things that I will have to answer for. However, I know that because of my faith in Jesus Christ and that he died to be the sacrifice for my sins, I am forgiven. It doesn't matter what others may think about me. If I am obeying God and living a righteous life, then all I can do is rely on his grace.
This is the saddest thing I've ever seen. Someone posted that the two of you have NO reason to have a kid, and I think they're right. Please Please take someone up on the offer of adoption. We would like to extend one of those offers. You have my email and real name, we would love the child and they will know that WE WANTED them.
... if it is only a matter of not wanting to change the status quo (and believe me, I understand how much sacrifice you wonder if you are up to making -- there are days I desperately miss my 'me' time), please deliver your baby into the arms of someone who desperately wants to have a child but can't. There are more out there than you realize. My own sister-in-law is one of your 6% who has offered to adopt your child, and I have watched her immeasurable anguish over childloss for years. In such a home, your child would know boundless love.
This child is already learning about the outside world from within your womb. He listens to your voice; he responds to changes in light and sound. His budding tastes are attuning to the flavors of your favorite foods as he samples them through the amniotic fluid. He has fingernails. His eye color has determined. His nervous system is fully functional by 11weeks -- he can feel pain.
He is half of you and half of your lover melded in perfect harmony. He is a lovechild. Please don't destroy that. Regardless of what the vote says, this is your child, and your choice. Nothing can change that.
You heard your baby’s heartbeat; therefore, you know there is life. Your baby is alive and to have an abortion would mean to end a life. I don’t know how anyone could live with the knowledge that they ended a life. Please pray about your decision. Having an abortion would condemn you both to a life of guilt and if you understand psychology, there are many problems that arise when one tries to hide that guilt from his or her self. May God bless you and lead you both to the right decision. I hope you will chose to give your baby the right to life. And if you two do not feel ready to raise this precious miracle of love, then please allow another couple to do so. Adoption agencies today allow you to read profiles of potential parents where the two of you can have some selection in the couple you wish to raise your child. If the two of you believe in God, then pray to Him and trust Him. His guidance is far greater than all the internet votes combined.
I became mother for the first time on 24 dec 2009 at the age of 33.
A baby is sacre, a baby is life...you don't have to create a poll to decide if you want to keep him or not.
I only think that you two should go and visit a good psychiatrist...'cause you're crazy!
You are the perfect example of people who should not be able to have children for their whole life!
Jeremiah 1:5
5“Before I formed you in the womb I knewa you,
before you were born I set you apart;
I appointed you as a prophet to the nations.”
Psalm 139:13–16
13For you created my inmost being;
you knit me together in my mother’s womb.
14I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made;
your works are wonderful,
I know that full well.
15My frame was not hidden from you
when I was made in the secret place.
When I was woven together in the depths of the earth,
16your eyes saw my unformed body.
All the days ordained for me
were written in your book
before one of them came to be.
Your baby has already been known before it was formed. Why, why I ask you would you or could you have the heart to post something as disgusting and hurtful as this? Don't you realize all the people trying to have children or who have had children die that would love to have your baby? My friend, who has already had a son die in 2006 at 4 months old to SIDS, lost her little baby girl last month when it was discovered at her ultrasound, at 28 weeks that her baby had died while still in her womb. My friend has lost 2 babies, plus 3 miscarriages. PLEASE PLEASE consider adoption! Why would you want to do this to an innocent child that has done NOTHING to you or your husband? I don't care if your a Christian or your not, it's morally and ethically wrong, it is murder no matter how you look at it. I'm sick of people trying to justify that it's not a life until such and such stage, as soon as that child is conceived it is a life, you can hear the heartbeat as early as 6 weeks! I had my ultrasound done of my daughter - Yes I am currently pregnant due January 27th this coming year- at 19 weeks, 2 weeks more than you are now, and she was a complete baby with arms, legs, everything, we could see her moving around, yawning, waving her hands......why would you want to live with this guilt on your shoulders if you abort? It will never go away, it will always haunt you for the rest of your life. Only by the saving grace of Jesus Christ could it be forgiven. I pray that you won't make the decision to end this child's life but to embrace it, if you don't want it give it to someone who will. God chose you to become parents of this baby, whether you remain it's parents or not He will decide, but please put it in His hands not your own. We are not to decide whether someone lives or dies that is God's holy judgement. And not only for the baby's sake, but for your own health and mentality,too. There are dangerous reprocussions to abortion, you could be scarred for life from ever having another child again, you could hemorrage, not to mention the mental anguish you will endure. Please don't end this baby's life. I have cried many tears during my pregnancy because of the loss of babies, with my friend, to a girl I know who had her third abortion at 3 1/2 months like it was nothing. These children don't deserve to suffer because of our selfishness. Humble yourselves and do the right thing, please, if you don't want it, GIVE IT UP FOR ADOPTION, I'm sure my friend would love to have one, even two more children to help heal the wounds of losing the 2 she already had, gave birth to and suffered with their deaths.
How does it feel to be the most hated couple on the face of hearth? You are doing this for money but let me tell you, you might get a couple of dollars with interviews and what not but the HATE you will get everywhere you go will be priceless, regardless if you have the baby or not...anyhow, if you already regret putting up this page is too late. You should be thinking on moving to the top of an iceberg to avoid being told how stupid and miserable you are.

I've witnessed a lot of pain from those who have chosen abortion. Please think of what it would be like to kill your child and think if you can live with that decision for the rest of your life. You don't know the pain it will cause you for years to come and you will be haunted by that little face on that ultrasound forever. Give the baby life so that you will have fewer regrets.
You should have your baby.
Its what God wants.

Thank You for at least reading this
and my prayers are for you
Jim Schneider
You both, and your child are in my prayers! Jesus loves all 3 of you, he really does!
When Roe versus Wade was passed we the common individual did not have the technology to know much about life in the womb. Today with Utra sounds 3D and operations performed on the little life inside a woman we now have at finger tips knowledge what only Doctors knew. THis is why the Liberal community (senate approx. 8 years ago now) hates seeing actual true footage of a baby growing in the MOM and the brutual process of abortion. We have killed our own and have let the borders open to fill the jobs that our own would have done. Lord forgive us
This should not even be a debate and it certainly shouldn't be decided by a poll! If you don't want children get on birthcontrol, get fixed, or keep your legs shut! If you abort this baby one day you will answer to God, even if you don't believe it, it will happen. Please give it up for adoption. There's so many childless couples that would love him/her beyond measure.
Take a look at the ultra sound pics you have posted. That is your baby! You're already further along than you ever have been before. For the love of God, do not kill your child! Give him or her a chance.
