Hi everyone ,
I've been a long time lurker but never had the courage to post ! But I've been feeling like this for a while and it's expired me from the other thread.
I'm twenty- three years old and have a seven year old DS. I was in a very abusive relationship with DS dad and unexpectedly fell pregnant last year and after an agonising decision, I decided to abort . I felt stupid for getting pregnant again to a man like that, especially the fact the didn't even look after DS but anyway like the reasons why in the other thread of not sticking to one child, I would of liked for DS to have a sibling etc etc...but I feel like I was given that chance but selfishly decided not to go through with the pregnancy.
Though, having an abortion gave me the strength to leave DS dad once and for all (it's been nearly a year) and as expected as I was the one who broke up with him his subsequently decided not to be in DS life anymore ...or grew bored very quickly as he can't use DS an excuse to get to me anymore. I recently found out from a family friend of theirs that his expecting another child with someone else.
AIBU to feel the way I do ?The other thread related to my one did open up some wounds. But I guess it would always be like that ? I do fantasise DS having a sibling but I had that chance and blew it.
