I can understand that you feel completely unprepared for this and like you're simply not ready. But the thing is, everything doesn't always happen the way we'd planned or hoped that it would have. Everyone has regrets and everyone makes mistakes. If you truly don't want this baby, express to your girlfriend how serious you are about this. But, before you do that, just take a minute to think about this... You created life with the person that you love. There is a little person inside of her that is a little combination of the both of you. I can totally understand not being ready, though. But there is time. You don't have to be ready for all of this overnight. In fact, I don't think anyone is EVER completely ready for everything that comes along with having a baby.
What it comes down to is that whether you want this baby or not, she'll have the final decision. That's just how the law works. It's not just me saying that out of my hate for abortion. It's the truth. If you want her to change her mind, you need to be talking to her seriously about this very soon. But just remember to take life one day at a time. I know that having a baby is a lot to take in, but I'm almost sure that once you hold the baby, you'll forget all about the regret and anger. I really think that you should try your hardest to be supportive of your girlfirend while also letting her know your feelings in this situation. I'm sure that she's glad to listen to how you feel about it, but just remember that, in the end, if she wants the baby, she's going to have it. It's a responsibility of yours whether you want it or not. It's too late to go back.
But I wish you both the best of luck and I really hope that the two of you come to a conclusion together and that it doesn't change your relationship in a negative way. Good luck. :]
