Considering abortion??

Found out I’m pregnant with our 3rd child and we weren’t trying. DH had a slip up a week before ovulation and we took ages with our other DC so thought I would be unlikely and first time we have ever been this silly.

I’m so shocked and not excited like previous pregnancies I’m freaking out a bit. Concerns are:

  • what if I can’t give my older children the attention they need there will be a 2 year age gap from the youngest
  • we have a big enough house but will need a new car
  • nursery fees will cripple is for 4 months until the 30 free hours kick in.
  • I’m not sure I’m ready

But then I’m so scared what if I decide we do want a third in a years time is that just awful to even consider an abortion. My heads all over the place and I feel like I can’t talk to anyone

Aw @Coldties. I’m so sorry to hear your turmoil. How are you now?

I’d advise speaking with a counsellor at somewhere like Marie stopes. They are terrific.
It’s such a horrible time when you are feeling pulled in 2 directions.xx
