Planned pregnancy but dad has now changed his mind

Me and my partner of 2.5 years agreed to try for a baby a couple of months ago. It happened really quickly and since finding out he has freaked out and says he never wants to be a dad. He says he made a mistake and said he would do it originally because he didn't want to lose me, as I said multiple times if he doesn't want children we should go our seperate ways. He is trying to tell me it's not fair on anyone for me to have this baby because he's not into it and a baby needs a secure 2 parent household.

For the 2 months trying to conceive I was doing ovulation tests, taking vitamins, doing all the right things and was waiting for the magical moment I hopefully became pregnant. I keep saying I will not have a termination and he says I am forcing him into something.

Honestly feels like my hearts been ripped out of my chest, I've said I'll do this alone with my baby but part of me feels guilty. Am I a bad person if I go against his feelings and do what I want?

Even if he was just say what he thought OP wanted to hear- that doesn’t mean she owes him an abortion!

He’s a very immature man. You’d be disgusted if he was your son.

I feel the same way, @Interlaken , I'd be disgusted if he were my son.

He's turning 30 next year and he's not mature enough to be honest about what he wants so he lied to the OP - that's ridiculous. I'd be more sympathetic if he were 20 perhaps, but he's far too old to be this immature.
