I've just found out I'm pregnant. I've been with my partner for a couple of years. We both have other children and don't live together but spend weekends together with all our children (partner works away in the week).

He has been distant for a few weeks and has said he is depressed. Last night he told me he wasn't happy in our relationship and hasn't spoken to me since. I found out i was pregnant yesterday. I don't know what to do. He doesn't know

Personally...I'd get straight down my gp and book the abortion. And I'd wish him on his (not so) merry way and suggest he too, visits his gp.for his depression. But that side isn't your problem anymore seen as he has basically told you it's over already.

Either that or he has told you he has checked out of the relationship but still intends to hang about (acting miserable) for the sex. Dont take any of that shit. Out with him. And dont bring a baby into this.

Did you discuss why he's not happy in your relationship & what the plan is going forward?

how old are your children?

did you want more children?

He sent a text, all it said was, 'I'm not happy at the moment'. It didn't actually specify it was about the relationship but that's the gist I've got. I haven't had chance to speak to him about it because he didn't answer the phone. Usually we speak several times a day and he's in constant contact. There's been nothing since.

My children are teenagers.

I'm so confused and feel so alone. I don't know whether to tell him about the pregnancy or not because I don't want him to change his thoughts on what he wants solely because of a baby. The whole thing has blindsided me
