To terminate third pregnancy?

[Akaksjsiek]

Hi, looking for some advice. Have two kids already almost 5 &3, just found out I’m pregnant again (5 weeks) and going back and forth over options. The second I found out I was set on termination, would say I’m still 95% wanting one. I’ve only just started to have free time and feel like I have my life back and that my life is how I want it to be.

don’t think I could handle another child, I’m constantly exhausted from two already (I also get really tired from adhd meds when they wear off) and struggle to give them enough of my time as it is. I just feel like having a third would destroy me mentally and I would end up miserable.

keep going reading lots of other womens stories though and keep imagining keeping it even though I don’t like the idea of it?

any advice would be appreciated thanks

Your body. Your choice. Whatever decision you make is the right decision for you. Don’t let anyone judge you.

I had a termination at 14 weeks when I found out the baby I was carrying had life threatening conditions and probably wouldn’t survive birth. It’s a horrendous decision to make but I went with the mantra above.

good luck with making any decisions.

It sounds like you are confident that a termination is the right option for you. What is it about other women's stories that is making you doubt yourself?

I have three and I could tell you how that is a positive experience for me but that is irrelevant to how your life is configured and the effects it would have on your life.
