Early pregnancy feeling lost

Hi there, I’ve known my partner since we went to school with one another - we always liked each other in school but nothing ever came of it .. skip to 20 years later we have both led different lives and we both each have children to our ex partners. He has 3 - two teenage boys and a 3 year old - and I have a 7 year old daughter. Me and my partner have been together for almost a year but we’ve only been living with eachother for the past 4 months. It’s been so great and we love each other and also our kids, although money has been a little tight and my partner has been stressed because of that but we’re sticking together trying to make it though - anyway 3 days ago I found out I was pregnant, I haven’t been to the doctors yet and I know I must only be a few weeks gone but I know I definitely am pregnant as I’m very in tune with my body, I knew by the look of my breasts even before I took the test. I told my partner and he wasn’t over the moon about it to say the least but not horrible either - he said I’ve just started a new job (me) and it isn’t the right time to have a baby, I told him I can’t abort a baby that was created out of love and he understand that he said but it’s just not the right time. I just feel sad lost and frightened, I think it would break my heart to get rid of this baby but I’m scared my partner is just going to feel trapped and upset by my decision. He is a great dad things haven’t been easy for us and I know we’ve only been together a short amount of time but we love each Other so much I just feel so confused as what to do. I’d love some advice I haven’t told anybody about this yet and I would love to hear some
advice if you have it please, and please be kind Xx

I suppose it’s rarely a perfect time to have a baby and if you want this one then you shouldn’t feel pressured into an abortion. You have time to think about this and his reaction may have been shock. Ultimately, this is your decision. If you worry he will resent you for keeping the baby, you will likely resent him for pressuring you into not having it.

Good luck and try to get some sleep, things are always a bit clearer in the morning.
