Found out I’m pregnant with my partner of 3 years, our circumstances are not ideal, we both have a child with different partners, luckily my child’s father is very easy going, but his child’s mother - they weren’t together when their child was conceived, we’re just sleeping together - she would go insane and likely stop him seeing his child and make things very difficult. I still haven’t met his son because she won’t allow it - she doesn’t let him see his child without her present, think it’ll be going down the court route very soon. It’s very hard seeing my partner so depressed all the time.
I am not sure on my decision, my boyfriend has made it very clear it’s my choice and he’ll support me with whatever I choose, but has made it clear now is not the ideal timing to be bringing a baby into the world, I don’t disagree with this, it’s just hard being a female and I feel somewhat attached perhaps more than he does, I see the logical side but also see the emotional side to it too being a female.Hmm But, I also care about him having a relationship with his son which is made difficult now, I would hate me being the reason it’s made even more difficult or stopped completely, this is my main concern but I can’t dismiss my feelings completely. I had an abortion before and I’ve never got over it, I think about it daily and I don’t think it ever leaves you no matter if the decision was best or not. I’m not sure I could go through that again… Sad It makes me feel so depressed. But I know my boyfriend never seeing his son again would make him feel as depressed. We’re in a catch 22.
We have the best relationship we’re so in love, we do the most amazing things together, trips away, family days etc, hes my soul mate. I can’t fault him.
guess I just need a shoulder … Flowers

Hiya
How are you feeling today ? Sounds like a really tough situation your in now . I can’t really give you any advice as I had an abortion because my partner didn’t want the baby and didn’t know if I could cope on my own again. But your partner sounds really supportive. I really hope you can sort something out soon . X

Sounds like a horrible situation.

But my initial response would be If this is your soul mate then have this baby, if this is something you would have wanted 'one day' with him anyway then him not being able to see his son is not a reason you shouldn't have a baby of your own together.. It sounds like you're saying you will never be able to have a baby under current circumstances however it sounds like those circumstances arent going to change anytime soon. Her stopping him seeing his son is an issue between them that sounds like it should already be taken down the court route if shes stopping him seeing him. She cannot stop him seeing his son for no reason. You having a baby is not a reason for her to stop him. And of course I imagine it will get messy and ridiculously tough but are you just not going to live your own life because of it?

I wish you the best and hope it all works out for you xxx
