  How old are you? Its essentially your choice, are you prepared for the expense a baby costs? Do you have support else where? 
  
  Good luck girl! Hope it works out for you! Do what you want to do in the end. Just make sure you realize having a baby is expensive and make sure you have support from someone/somewhere!

  I have the same initial question as @steff7989. How old are you? Is your mom still covering your living expenses/are you dependent on her in any way? Not sure how she can 'force' you to do this. There are also other options, like adoption. Many families have been waiting years for a baby... 
  
  Hope everything works out for you!

  Please consider adoption before abortion! There are many many couples out there that have been waiting for years to get chosen to raise a child. Many adoption agencies will help you with expenses as you go through pregnancy and delivery, to make sure that you have a place to stay during the process and healthy food for you and the baby. You also get to choose the couple that you can give your baby too. More info at https://www.americanadoptions.com/pregnant

  Yes please choose adoption if you are not prepared for a baby. Every child is a blessing and there is a couple waiting for that precious babe

  It’s not your moms decision. It’s yours. How old are you?

  Tell her to shove off? She can't force you to do anything, especially something like abortion. I agree with the suggestions of adoption, and you can even make it an open adoption, so you can watch them grow up. I can't imagine your mother objecting to that...

  My birth mother was only 15 when she got pregnant with me and chose adoption for me.  I am forever grateful for her bravery!  PLEASE chose life for your baby!

  Not sure if this was a drive-by. 
  But your mom can't force you to do anything in America without suffering the consequences if caught.  
  If she's not supportive,  find someone else who will be your advocate.  But like the other ladies said,  I suggest you look into adoption.
