Pregnant with no 4 and struggling

[Handsonmummy]

Hi
I am currently 6+2 with no 4, but I am very worried and not sure whether to keep the baby. I am struggling with morning sickness, finding it so hard to do chores at home and worried about how to tell my boss I am pregnant as I just got promoted to a new position due to start 1st of November. I have thought of termination, but I am not 100 percent sure that's what I want. Also hubby does not want anymore kids and he is not happy about this pregnancy. Please I need advice and support. Anyone else in similar situation?

A lot of terminations are for people in stable relationships and with existing families. A lot of people have 4 kids (me included). It is too big a decision to tell you what to do but I’m sure you’d love the baby and value their presence in the family.

Just to say that with my 4th I had constant sickness, vomiting every evening when kids were in the bath. I didn’t work, but other dc were 4, 3 and 1. At the time 3 yo began displaying very challenging autistic traits. I really didn’t know how I’d manage (no family this side of the wirld, dh worked long hours). 6 years (and 2 ASD diagnosis later) we are all here, I love having 4 dc. That period was very difficult but we got through it and it was worth it. Everything at the time did look pretty helpless...

I'm pregnant with my 4th baby, he was unplanned and I also felt the same when I found out. I suffered with terrible sickness for 16 weeks, had a heamtoma and bled for 5 weeks and i was also waiting foe genetic testing as we carry a genetic condtion that has a 1 in 4 chance in each pregnancy of re occurring.

During that time I felt so miserable but I decided I couldn't go through with it.

I had the testing and I'm expecting a healthy baby boy in Nov. I'm still struggling with being pregnant if I'm honest but I am looking forward to meeting him.

You do what is right for you, being pregnant is hard and I understand how you feel. X

Thank you very much. It can be very difficult time, hope you feel strong through the remaining Months
