I think I just need a rant. (Boyfriend)

I'm going to apologise in advance for the length of this.

This started as a normal coil refit at the beginning of August. Still had a month left due to not wanting the risk of getting pregnant but has no issues with it otherwise. However did a pregnancy test and found out I was pregnant with the coil in. So after shock and tears, a and e trip to remove coil and finding out I'm about 6 weeks pregnant. Had early pregnancy scan 3 days after and they confirmed I was 6 week and 3 days and gave my options either way as I already have two kids and didn't want a 3rd.

So me and bf had talks and I loosely decided to keep (I think I was majorly in shock)

Now the shock has subsided I have decided on a termination my mental health is not stable enough to raise a baby, I suffered post natal depression with my other two, me and bf don't live together and he has 3 kids with his ex and I have two with my ex. We wouldn't be able to afford the size house we would need so I'd basically be a single parent even though I'd have a boyfriend.

Now I told him this with my reasoning and he completely disagrees with terminations, to the point he had stopped talking to me. This is by no means an easy decision and my mental health is going to suffer but I know in the long run I'm doing the best thing.

Anyway we got into a major argument I called him a few names for not even trying to communicate and discuss this and he then declared I was verbally abusive and he wasn't going to be there through any of it (termination) and I haven't taken any of his feelings into account even though he hasn't spoke to me when I have tried to get through to him.

Am I being unreasonable for loosing my temper and should I be the one to apologise?
