I don't want to be pregnant!

NC as I don't want anyone to recognise me, I'm sorry if this is upsetting for anyone.

Yesterday, I took two pregnancy tests. Both showed a faint positive result. I'm devastated. DH and I have one DC already and do eventually want another but the timing couldn't be worse.

I had a termination 18 months ago due to contraception failure, changed contraception and now it's failed and I'm pregnant again. I know no contraception is 100%.

We can't afford another child, we're in so much debt. I've only just qualified in my profession and not secured a job in it yet, instead in working part time in a minimum wage job whilst applying for the job I want. No one will employ a pregnant person! It's hard because all the jobs here are temporary.

Sorry this is all a ramble, I just needed to write it down. I want this baby but not right now. If I continue with this pregnancy, it's likely I won't get into the profession I have been working for years to be in Sad Does that make me selfish? DH is so supportive regardless of my decision.

We've moved this for OP to Pregnancy Choices.
