Father of my unborn baby.. Doesn't want it.

Hi everyone.. Sorry if i have posted this in the wrong place.. i am so very new to this and really needing advice and help and i dont have anyone to talk too..

So basically i started dating my partner 10 months ago. I knew when meeting him that he was a father of two at the age of 23 and his two children were to two different ex partners. Basically he got one girlfriend pregnant and left her when he found out, it straight with someone else and 6 months later got her pregnant too.. He then went back to his first ex girlfriend who had just given birth to his daughter at the time. They tried to make it work for a year and a half then he left her and got with me 10 months ago. He still hasnt to this day met his second child with the other ex partner as he says he hates her and the baby because he never wanted it.. I had made it quite clear to him i was on contraception to prevent having a child but that if anything ever happened i could never get rid of it which he agreed with. Well now 10 months later i am 5 weeks pregnant and he is basically forcing me to have an abortion. I should have seen this coming nut i guess i thought it would be different this time.. That surely there comes a time in every ones life where you say the scenario is not ideal but you work it out. Apparently not. I love him. I really do. I have gone through so much for him and done so much for him and i just feel like if he truly cared about me he would love this child and have it with me. I feel like im living in a world of hope.. The way he has been talking about my child.. Saying things like i just want this thing gone. Horrible horrible things. I guess what i am wanting advice on is if you all think i would be best to keep this child and get him to sign over parental rights. Thats the path i have been thinking of taking. I just feel like if me and this baby are not good enough now i dont want him coming back in 6 months when he realises he had it good and that the grass isnt necessarily greener... which he will. Honestly i just think he is so selfish.. he says he doesnt want or need another kid and that i need to have an abortion then we will have kids when he is ready.. So basically kill my child, our child and then go on living life together and stuff. Its so hard. I accepted his near 3 year old and treated her as my own. How could i ever be with somebody who i know has a child in his life to another female but wouldnt have mine.. I dont know im sorry if this makes no sense my head is a mess at the moment. Any advice would be great... Thanks.

Oh ffs he just gets better and better. ' birth control is for the girl'. Run and fast OP

Stinkycatbreath · 18/07/2019 08:50

You need to disregard this man as a long term option and think about what you want. Do you want this baby. You are still early on and have time to make decisions and it is your body not his. Please dont let him bully you into a decision that you will regret either way you choose for the rest of your life. I have been in the same position and will never ever forget that time in my life. I made the wrong choice for me and listened to my ex and it's awful. Get some counselling and have a think about what is best for you now take him out of the equation it will always end in tears and sounds like you wouldn't want him in your life baby or not he is nuts.

Philmitchell · 18/07/2019 08:54

Why do women have babies with these men ? Bloody waste men!

CruellaFeinberg · 18/07/2019 09:04

Bit over head on this post.. I'm nearly 14 weeks pregnant it's now a baby I've no idea what I really want to do to be fair one minute I'm fine the next im not I dont know but times running out .. I know how to bring a child up I've 2 all ready and i live with my mum at the mean time as of loss of house last year and iknow she will help 100%.. all so fined it easier been a single parent anyway men are more hassle then what kids can be

RedPanda2 · 18/07/2019 11:54

'I just dont know how anyone can see a baby as a bad thing' I disagree with this wholeheartedly, did you not think you were poles apart if you think this and he has 2 children, 1 if which he doesn't acknowledge?
If you keep the baby you'll be on your own

Yeahnahmum · 18/07/2019 12:08

If you want the baby. Keep it.
If you dontwant to baby: terminate

This man is not the "father "of your unborn child. This man is a sperm donator.
You wanna be a single mum (and have to explain one day to your kid what a retard his dad is) that's fine. Because face it: you will be a single mum

If you don't. Then also fine. But then for the love of god: get rid of this man!!!!

GreenFingersWouldBeHandy · 18/07/2019 12:09

he grabbed me and screamed into my face that fact. I dont doubt he would hurt me if it solved the issue

he is basically forcing me to have an abortion

He still hasnt to this day met his second child

Wow. You've picked a right charmer there.

Seriously, you need to have a think about this. You say you don't want an abortion, but if you have the child, you will be biologically linked to him for the rest of your life. Mind you, given his shite parenting to his first 2 kids, hopefully he'll just stay away.

Get as far away from him as possible if you want to keep your baby. And it's up to you what to do. Suggest he gets a vasectomy or learns how to use condoms if he doesn't want kids. Fucking arsehole.

Shooturlocalmethdealer · 18/07/2019 12:13

I'm guessing the first two women he got pregnant with feel or felt the same as you do now. You want to keep the baby then by all means do. Just lose him. And start making better choices on the partners you pick? It's not your fault he is a complete prick but it is your life and your choices that you have to live with. Wish you the best.

Durgasarrow · 18/07/2019 14:22

Are you sure you want to have a baby now? Are you ready to raise a child? Do you think you are in an emotionally mature state enough to be an effective and joyful parent? If you aren't, there is nothing wrong with not going through with a pregnancy.

AbbyNormal · 18/07/2019 14:35

ZOMBIE THREAD!

@Blakekemp5 start your own thread to get advice for your situation. Poor OP will be getting notifications about this thread and we don't know her current circumstances or what has happened over the last year since this was posted.

AquaPris · 18/07/2019 14:51

Does he have super sperm or something? I have many friends who sleep around and not one has ever gotten 3 women pregnant by age 25 😄🙄🙄

AquaPris · 18/07/2019 14:52

3 kids with three women will also mean that he has to pay out ££££ in CM for the next 18 years so I'm not surprised he's upset. He can't make you do anything you don't want to though

makingmammaries · 18/07/2019 15:58

‘I love him, I really do’ appears to be the new Mumsnet code for ‘l’m dating the dregs of arseholedom’.
OP, wake up. He behaved like a shit to two women and two children. Why would he be different with you?
Dump the arsehole and concentrate on making a life for your baby who is not to blame for any of this.

makingmammaries · 18/07/2019 15:59

Oh gawd. Zombie.

HiJenny35 · 18/07/2019 16:22

Zombie thread but please come back and update us op!

OnlyFoolsnMothers · 18/07/2019 16:37

Do whatever you want OP its your body and life.

I personally would terminate and move on fully from this waste of space and give myself the opportunity to start a family with someone decent and dedicated.
I fear you think an abortion would leave you with no one when it might leave you with opportunities to strive for the life and family I sense you so desperately want.

Blakekemp5 · 18/07/2019 17:46

I've just completed on a post today because Im not to sure how to post lol ..... I'm all ready a single mum to my other two children.. think people are getting a bit lost as I've posted on someone post what was posted a year ago ..

Parrakeet · 19/07/2019 00:13

"I have gone through so much for him and done so much for him"... umm.... you met him 10 months ago!!? How much could you really have been through?
