As the title suggests. Just found out I’m pregnant with my 4th!!!

In shock. Totally unplanned as I have the coil fitted, not sure what to do about that firstly. Going to contact the drs in the morning.

I have a 7 year old, 5 year old and a 3 year old. All now in school and pre school full time. Just getting myself “back”

I don’t know if I want this?? I have a million things go through my head.
Husband is shock too, but is understanding about it being my body and my choice. I don’t even know if I can bring myself to consider abortion. But I don’t know if I want to do it again. I don’t want to tell anyone to get advice as I can’t bring myself to think about either way.

thanks

Hi there!

I found myself in a v.similar situation a few months back. I categorically couldn't bring myself to even say the word terminate but I was very sad about being pregnant and cried for weeks and weeks!I felt horrifically guilty for being sad about it when in reality I know its not the worst thing that could happen to me or my family.

My DH been supportive from the moment I told him, this is our 4th baby, I'm currently 23 weeks pregnant and very much, now, looking forward to meeting our new edition.

I think it took me until beyond the 12 week scan to come to terms with it. But although we aren't quite in a position to add to the family, we are making it work one way or the other.

I hope you get to work out what you want and be happy with your decision. Please PM me if needed x
