I've just found out I'm pregnant again

[Teddiesmumjess]

Hi everyone, I'm really lost right now.

I just found out I'm pregnant again (I have an 18 month old) and i just can't help but think it's really bad timing. I quit my job a couple of weeks ago and am due to start a completely new career at the end of September. Therefore, if I was to have a baby I wouldn't be entitled to any maternity pay and I'm sure it'd be very annoying for my new employer. Not to mention difficult for me to fully settle in and achieve all my goals.

Financially I don't think me and my other half are in the best position to have another baby, but I'm really struggling to come to terms with having an abortion. Can anyone help provide me with any advice as to help I could get with finances or just any advice in general.

Please be kind I am finding this very difficult.

Life is challenging Hun and things happen for a reason you will be amazing to your new arrival I’m sure when they there. Assuming wasn’t planned ?

@kellyw1989 thank you, not planned! We weren't planning on having another one until our little one is age 3. I just have no idea what I'm going to do, or how we could ever afford it. I don't want to be stressed and struggling about money the whole way through my pregnancy and when the baby is born. Which is why we think it's better if we wait until we are more ready :( I am just so confused
