Not so sure anymore

[VeremyJyle]

Found out I am expecting with new DP (going through divorce with STBXH) with an IUD in, had scan last week (roughly 5wks) and have another booked for next week.
At first I felt quite brave, I'll be fine, I don't need anyone etc. but now I'm having a wobble, DP has said he doesn't want baby but we're still together, I think he's in shock but realise he might not "come round" None of my family know, I am bracing myself for the criticism and backlash.
I've never felt so isolated, alone and scared. I will be ruining alot of lives and I feel like I'm the only one who wants this baby, now I'm not so sure. This tiny thing is growing inside me, I am its protector and providor, scanning through thread titles, I realise how lucky I am, no TTCs or MMCs, but I wonder if one person's faith and strength can overcome so much negativity?

Not sure how to help but hopefully will bump you back on to Active where much wiser people than me will have some better advice.

My own reaction would be that if YOU want this baby, then you WILL manage and it WILL all be fine. Just be strong and trust your instincts.

Without knowing the details of your situation and not wanting to make assumptions, just reading on MN you realise that there are many women who have babies in such difficult circumstances and cope incredibly well. I know that's easy for someone else to say, and as I said I don't know your situation, but believe in yourself and you'll make it. Good luck x

Thanks gruffalo I think I'm just being hormonal, though most of the facts remain

I found out I was pregnant with my husband's child a couple of weeks after I started divorce proceedings. I also felt very conflicted, but for me the baby wins out over everything else. Best of luck - you have to make the decision that is right for you, and you alone.
