I found out i was pregnant last week. I think I am probably about the five week mark.
I was initially in shock but as the week has gone on, I feel increasing negative about the pregnancy.
I am in my late thirties and have never been especially maternal and my hubby is around the same age. We both work a lot, we aren't rich but we do enjoy traveling and our current freedom.
I am really surprised at how negative my reaction has been. If I had known how strong my reaction was I would have taken more precautions.
I also feel incredibly selfish that I would be considering abortion when I really have a wonderful husband who will support me through anything. We both agree that if we went through with the abortion it would also be an agreement to remain child free. This thought doesn't scare me too much but maybe it is my nerves and fears taking over,
I feel like a freak of nature! Has anyone else had any similar experiences or advice?
