What am I going to DO????

I'm 3 months pregnant, with no life set up or clue about what I'm going to do to make it work. I appear much stronger on the outside to my friends and family than I feel in the inside.

I'm about to return home after 14 months of travelling the world. No form of stability awaits me there, and I have my work cut out for me when it comes to what I have to figure out. I have 6 months to get ready for this baby!

Many people would think that choosing to keep a baby under circumstances like these may be irresponsible. Although it will be the biggest challenge I’ve ever faced, there are some positive sides to my situation that will help me in the path to single motherhood. I have a degree under my belt, job experience and I’m not a teenager. All  good points. I have a massive student loan, but also decent savings, a supportive network of friends and family, and most importantly: a desire to keep this baby. At the end of the day, the biggest question a mother needs to ask herself when facing an unexpected pregnancy is "do I want to have a baby now?"

Thats all for today.
