2 kids already and unplanned pregnancy

[Confusedmomoftwo]

Hi everyone, just needing to vent and get some advice, we have 2 beautiful kids a boy and girl have always said I am done having more but I have tested positive and I am devastated,I feel so guilty even feeling this.
My partner would love another baby he has said he will support me what ever we do, we live in Australia but not from here so don’t have family support, he has said we can move home to be with family and have that support, it was something we have always had in the back of our minds. But I’m so lost and confused what to do! He keeps saying it’s the initial shock but I don’t think so, those who were upset finding out did it change?
Thank you for reading ☺️

Hi, A hug sent to you. I was in a similar position and it took me months to accept. 4 years on and it's worked out well as can be, with childcare support, to parent all three as happily as can be. Hard work for sure but draw in as much support as you can muster and it can be done. ❤

My sister was in a similar position and decided to terminate. They were on a very tight budget and knew they couldn't do the best for the other two. I think the marriage was a bit shaky too but it was over 25 years ago and they're still together.

Hi ConfusedMom, wow, that is a big decision to make. You do have the option of coming back to live near your family for a few years until your baby is of school age, then deciding if you want to go back to Australia when the children are more grown. Having your partner's support is so important, if he's happy about the pregnancy it might really crush his spirit if you abort. I think that lots of people we know are "oops" babies, and there are many nice things about having three. I was the oldest of three sisters and it was a really fun dynamic. Hope you'll check back in here, would like to hear how you are doing with weighing your options.
