Hey ladies,
I've come off contraception and my DP and I have been trying for a baby during my ovulation. (Sorry if that's not how you phrase it - I'm a newbie) anyway, we have been together for 6 years, both totally on the same page about wanting children etc. We originally wanted to marry first but a death in the family has made us rethink this and we've concluded that life is just too short!
Anyway enough rambling! I've suddenly just became terrified of potentially being pregnant. My next period is due in 9 days. It's hit me that I could potentially be carrying the baby of a man who has absolutely no legal ties to me. None of my friends with children are married, my own parents never married but DPs side is the complete opposite. Obviously the last thing I want to think about is splitting up and being a single mum (Christ I'm probably not even pregnant yet!) but I also need to think about every scenario. Ugh sorry, this has turned into more of a rant than a question. Do you think I'm just overreacting?
