6 weeks pregnant - what to do!?

I’m absolutely at my wits’ end.

My partner and I split up a few days ago, and I’m 6 weeks pregnant. We were together for three years and the relationship has been quite turbulent.

I have an 8 year old from a previous relationship, which ended when my DD was 2. We have a fantastic co-parenting set up; 50/50 custody, we get on well and there is no animosity.

So, I now don’t know what to do - I feel really blessed and I don’t want to have a termination but at the same time I am not sure how I will manage on my own. I know for a fact that I will not have the same co-parenting set up with this guy! He really wanted this child but he is very volatile and our relationship will be strained forever.

Just not to drip feed. I am turning 40 soon, earn very well (senior role), have my own house etc. I am not close with my family, but I am sure I will get some support.

Just wanting to hear some positives (and negatives) from those who have been in a similar situation.
