so I've just found out I'm pregnant, we already have two young children and live in a small 2 bed flat.

i was on the pill and have fallen pregnant. my partner does not want to continue with the pregnancy because of practical reasons like space etc. im quite against a termination

I feel like if I go through with the termination I will regret it for the rest of my life, but I also don't want to bring a baby into the world when they're not particularly wanted by one half of the relationship and where we can provide as much as we would want to

My partner has expressed that if I want to keep it then he will support me and we'll make it work, but I can't help feeling like he'll grow to resent me when things become tough?

Any advice/previous experience welcome!

Do what you think is best for you.
I know you value your partner thoughts on this but what about how it will affect you in the long run. You could resent your partner for putting the doubt in your head. I do get why termination is an option right now, but you can never take this back. Once the pregnancy is gone, it's gone.

Give it a few days and see how you feel and communicate with your partner about your concerns.
