So in short, I have a DS and DD and just been surprised with an unplanned pregnancy. I've never really yearned for another and was comfortable and happy knowing I could provide for my current 2 without having to make them go without anything.
DH was happy about the news, were I am complete nervous wreck. I came from a family of four kids, I'm not particularly close to any of them and hated that we didn't have much and had to share everything. As I have had my own family I have always liked the thought of being able to offer my children more than I had. So it breaks my heart to think a third may jeopardise that when it comes to space and finance.
I am very pro choice and have had conversations with my DH about both continuing the pregnancy and termination. He is supportive either way but says the decision ultimately lies with me.
What are peoples experiences with early medical terminations?
There's often lots of comments from women who have had them and then instantly regretted it? Has it affected you long term? Are you one of these women or their partners?
Alternatively, has anyone had an early medical termination and believed it was the right thing for them to do? Has it ever affected you long term? Are you better for it?
I'm really at a loss and just keep going around in circles.
Please answer with personal experiences as apposed to beliefs, as I don't want this to be a discussion of "right and wrong" but more of a safe space where I can get some insight.
