Hi.

So I'm 6 weeks 3 days with my first I had to go through ivf so I didn't know I could get pregnant naturally. We did maybe want one more but my son is still young and we're exhausted as it is. I've tried to get my head around it but Even when I seen the early scan I felt nothing. I feel awful but I think an abortion is right for our family and my partner will definitely always be using a comdom now.

But is it normal to feel so guilty even though I know it's the right decision for us. I also feel so exhausted already struggling to look after my son.
I've done an online form for an abortion so I have some more days to think about it but I'm 90% certain it's what we want. My last pregnancy I was in bed all the time til atleast 16 weeks my partner doing extra and I still feel awful just getting through the day like if the pregnancy was planned mayve I'd go ahead but as it wasn't I just think mentally it's too much I do just feel awful like im gonna be punished for doing it /something bad is going to happen but another part of me is like I've had miscarries early and it's like well your under 12 weeks it's one of those things so that could happen anyway

It's very normal to feel how you you're feeling.

There's unfortunately no way around the complex emotions you're experiencing. Ultimately you'll have to decide and make peace erith your decision.

Weigh up the options, trust your gut and don't look back. Good luck
