I was in a similar spot to the OP when I was in my very early 20s, and she also chose to terminate the pregnancy. As soon as she found out, she chose to consult me first -- not that it was necessary, but out of courtesy -- and we both agreed that it was not the right decision for us to have a child at that time in our lives.
Her having the choice meant that we both got the opportunity to live our lives how we wanted to, and were empowered to make a conscious decision whether to have children (or not) when we were ready to, instead of letting a contraceptive mishap choose for us.
… That said, had we seen it through, that child would have been coming up on thirteen years old, and probably would have grown up to be a successful adult and also a candidate for Sexiest Man / Woman of the Year.
So yeah, we lowered the bar for your kids. You're welcome.
