I am 10 weeks pregnant, completely unplanned. I have 2 dcs already and my relationship with DP has been dreadful for a long time.
He is angry that I have not had a termination already. I am struggling to come to a decision but I am aware time is running out.
In my heart I want to keep this baby, I'm aware it will not be easy but I'm certain I could cope as a lone parent.
DP is furious that he gets no say in this decision, he was raging that they wouldn't let him in the room for my termination consultation, as he says it affects his life too so he should get to decide too.
I have made it clear that there is no way forward for us after this, whatever I decide to do.
He is laying it on thick that I am unreasonable, selfish to continue this pregnancy. That I should consider our other dcs and put them first. Also I am not respecting his wishes as he does not want another child.
I am trying to convince myself to get the termination, it appears the most sensible option, we can then split and I can concentrate on my dcs.
I feel guilty for wanting to keep this baby, when it's going to put extra pressure and stress on the family at an already tough time. DP says I am only thinking about myself and not considering anyone else and I am starting to believe him.
I am so stressed, please don't be unkind, I am just hoping for some advice.
