Hi, Jenn,
At 24, you are a good age for having children. I agree with Shellie. The strong and brave thing would be to protect your child. Remember, courage isn't about being unafraid. It's about facing your fears and doing the right thing in spite of them.
You spoke of thinking that having this baby would be the end of your relationship. Actually, the opposite is true. About 90% of the unmarried relationships break up after abortion.
You can find a pregnancy resource center in your area by going here: pregnancycenters.org. They will help you with your expenses, finding a job, and so forth. You have plenty of time, and really, other than the cost of birth, a baby isn't all that expensive, especially if you breastfeed. And the center can help you with the cost of the birth; there are people who volunteer their time and resources. They can help you with baby clothes and baby supplies. Yes, jobs are hard to find right now, but that may well change for the better, so allow yourself to hope.
You said you want your baby. So don't have an abortion. Take care of yourself and your precious little one. We will be here for you, and we will pray for you.
Hugs,
Pat
