Hi everyone.

I recently found out I'm expecting again. This baby wasn't planned, in fact I had been on the pill so this baby was more than unexpected.

My partner is totally against the idea, we already have 2 girls (1 aged 2 and the other aged 1) so this baby would put me in the 3 under 3 category for a short time.

He isn't pushing me for an abortion, he will support whatever final decision I make. But he's made it clear he wouldn't be overjoyed and has explained the financial strain it would put on our family etc, which, it would.

I just don't know what to do. I don't want an abortion, I'm not against them but I feel like after having 2 beautiful babies I'd find it so hard to go through, but I don't want my 2 girls feeling pushed out, I certainly don't want to put our family under financial strain and obviously it will be hard with 3 under 3. We may end up needing a new car and other things if another baby is due this year.

I just feel stuck between a rock and a hard place right now. I'm barely sleeping as it's on my mind constantly, any advice would be much appreciated 💕
