So just recently discovered that I’m pregnant 7 months postpartum. Completely unexpected as protection was used and the morning after pill was taken. So it is a massive shock. Currently on maternity leave and this would be my third baby. I don’t know what to do. Part of me wants to have this baby because me and my partner wanted more anyway but it’s just bad timing. But then I think there wasn’t much more I could have done to prevent it and it happened anyway. So it’s almost like a blessing.
I’d have a 4 year old and a 1 year old once the baby is here. I struggle anyway with money at the minute but that’s mainly due to being on maternity leave and my partner is currently looking for work. I’d have to get a new car as my current one only has 5 seats. I had a termination about 8 years ago and it affected me emotionally it was very traumatic and I always said I would never put myself through that again. I’m not looking for answers just advice from anyone who has a similar age gap or has had the same experience
