Thinking about termination

[Onmystreet]

I've just found out I'm unexpectedly pregnant with my second child, my first child is nearing the end of primary school.

I've had a really tough few years in my personal life which played havoc with my mental health. I have a wonderful supporting husband but I can't help thinking that i dont want this.

For the first time in a really long time I can make decisions to increase my happiness like get a new job, enjoy my child, husband and focus on me but if I have a new baby I can't.

There isn't a reason not to go ahead except I don't think I want to.

There is no reason why you can't enjoy your job and have a happy family dynamic with the second baby too, in fact it could double your happiness even if it takes more work especially in the beginning!

Did you talk to your husband about how you are feeling?

If you don't want to have a baby, you don't have to. Protecting your own mental health and self worth is a good enough reason to have a termination, if you feel it is.
You should probably talk to your husband but at the end of the day it's your body and your decision.

Not wanting to is a perfectly good reason

It is important to protect your physical and mental health. Weigh up how continuing the pregnancy could cause harm, vs how having a TOP could potentially cause harm. I would speak to your other half about it as well, not to make the decision (it's your choice) but because an unplanned pregnancy +/- termination is always a little upsetting to go through and you will need support from your best friend x

Good luck x

Not wanting to go ahead is a perfectly valid reason.

Yep you don't need any other reason than you don't want to. In fact that's probably the best reason there is.

If you don't want to have a baby, don't.
