He’s had a vasectomy and I’m pregnant

I’ve been seeing someone for about 6 months, thought all was going really, really well. We’re both divorced, 2 dc each and neither of us want more. He had a vasectomy after his youngest was born 8 years ago (he’s definitely not lying about this due to a funny anecdote that all his mates love to remind him about).

I’ve been feeling really under the weather for the last few weeks. Did a CV test, all fine. It was only at the supermarket this morning that I suddenly thought maybe I’m pregnant and grabbed a test just to put my mind at ease. I’ve always had irregular periods, not had one since September but that’s nothing unusual.

Just did the test and I’m pregnant. I could fucking scream. I’ve just had the worst year of my entire life, meeting this man is the only good thing that’s happened to me in years.

I know what I’ve got to do. I just don’t want to do it and wanted to vent somewhere.

So sorry OP.

Hugs & Thanks

Please be very kind to yourself you've had quite a traumatic week x

Respectabitch · 27/11/2020 21:03

I'm so sorry. It's a bit of a headfuck isn't it - just when you're starting to wrap your head around what's happened it's over and you don't know how to feel about any of it.

Take care of yourself.

Queenofthemadouse · 28/11/2020 08:28

Hugs op. What a week. I'm glad your partner was supportive. Be kind to yourself this week. It's ok to grieve for a situation you didn't ask or plan to be in if you need to xx

AlwaysLatte · 28/11/2020 08:41

Sorry you had to go through all that - what a shitty curveball to come at you after an already difficult year. 💐

You poor thing, such a lot to go through in a few days, you rest up Flowers

mineandyours · 28/11/2020 09:27

Oh OP, so much to go through Thanks
Have you told your partner that you've miscarried?
Big hugs.

rainbowstardrops · 28/11/2020 10:13

Blimey, what a rough time for you. I hope your partner will take good care of you today Thanks

MusicWithRocksIn1t · 28/11/2020 13:04

big hugs hope you are as ok as you can be right now xx

OverThinkingUnderDoing · 28/11/2020 14:04

I’m ok thanks. Feeling a bit rubbish at the moment but heading up to see partner for a couple of days now. We’re going to get takeaway and watch films and just be utter slobs for the next 48hours. Then he can bugger off to the doctors and be castrated.

@OverThinkingUnderDoing sounds the absolute best thing to do.

The castration bit made me snort with laughter.

MardiBras · 28/11/2020 18:20

I hope you start to feel a bit better soon after such an emotional week Flowers

(Maybe get a couple of bricks and offer to do the job properly yourself)!
