10 weeks pregnant and struggling on how I'm going to cope

[clairelouise96]

Im 10 weeks pregnant And I just don’t know how I’m going to cope or manage I already have a 2 1/2 year old child and I work full time I’ve just finished college also and had my qualification which I wanted to pursue a career in, I can’t see any positives in having another child I struggle with childcare for 1 child whilst working now I don’t know how I could do it with two children and I can not financially afford not to work my partner who is also my 2 1/2 year olds dad is not very supportive with our child who we have now so I’m afraid he will not be supportive if I had another child and again I will be the one doing it all I already find it hard and lonely with one child, my 2 year old child is so busy and wants my attention all the time he don’t sleep a full night I suffered with post natal depression after I had my 2 year old child and struggled really bad
some days I’m like I’m want a termination and other days i think about it and the only way to explain it is my heart feels like it hurts and I feel so guilty thinking about a termination, I did go for the appointment but I couldn’t go through with it I just don’t know what to do this is all I can think of I feel so sad I just don’t know what to do or who to speak too I don’t want to tell family and friends incase they judge me.
I wanted to see if anyone has been in a similar position and what they did and how they felt about it?

Hey i was the same. We got pregnant while actively avoiding pregnancy. Condom split - morning after pill failed
i an returning to my career after a year next week, we’re getting married next year, we have a 2 year old, and I suffered with post natal depression. We decided the right thing for us was to terminate. Was I sad about it? Yes. Do I regret it? No.
only you can make your decision - but don’t feel you need to justify a reason to anyone xxx

@Gkrr10 thank you for replying to my post 😊 I was the same actively avoiding pregnancy taking the contraceptive pill and caught, if you don't mind me asking did it take you long to get over the sadness of having a termination? Xxx

My termination was only 8 days ago. The first few days were sad but I think it’s hormones too. It’s def more of a relief now xxx

@Gkrr10 Sorry I didn't realise it was only 8 days ago you ok? My hormones are all over the place at the minute too and i can't think straight cause the hormones are taking over, if you don't mind me asking how many weeks were you? Sorry to ask I don't know what to expect at 10 weeks if I choose to go through with the termination xxx

I was only 5 weeks so a bit earlier. I’m sure there are lots of people here that would be able to give you advice a bit further on though 🤍

@Gkrr10 thank you 😊 and thank you for replying to my post I needed someone to talk to xxx

@clairelouise96 I had a termination 10 uears ago at 9+2wks. You have to do what's right for you. I agree with @Gkrr10 , it's sad at first but if you feel it's the right decison then go for it! X
