Aibu to be absolutely devastated and no idea what to do!

So I've just found out I'm pregnant at 43. I already have an 18 year old, 5 year old and 4 year old.
I am in total shock and have no idea what to do. I feel I am too old to have another baby but also the thought of a termination just breaks my heart.

I'm on the pill but I did have covid a few weeks ago and was really ill and think I missed a pill due to not being able to get out of bed and totally forgot about it.
Dh says it's totally my choice what I do and will stand by me either way.

Someone please give me some advice

Best of luck op. From experience you may always wonder what if, but given your current circumstances I don't think you will regret it. Be kind to yourself, and know that your decision is for all the right reasons. When I had my termination, I felt instant relief and moments.of guilt and thoughts of what if/regret but it's easier to think that when you are looking back from a better place/situation. My decision was absolutely right for me at that time.
