Me and partner have been together for 3 years and recently I have found out I am pregnant. I came off the implant back in July and we were both excited of the thought of getting pregnant. Eventually end of November I decided to take a pregnancy test as I was 2 weeks late. 3 tests later and the answer was there. At first I cried and my partner was so excited. However within the first week I became distant with him, I cried whenever he spoke about the pregnancy. I thought it was because I hadn’t told my parents, unsure if they would be happy as we are not married, we haven’t bought a house yet and we are not in the conventional living family unit yet. However they we both so pleased yet taken back as me and my partner were. As time went on I continued to cry and think I want to be in a house first I would like to be married even though I will be with my partner for the rest of my life. The timing is not great, however I feel guilty if I were to get rid of it as we were not using contraception and we spoke about having a baby and the excitement of starting our own little family but now it has happened I feel like it is not the right time. But yet I know I’m the future we will be having children. I don’t know what to do and I’m struggling. I feel as though we should have taken a step back after getting the implant out and thought there’s still so much we want to do but because we were excited to have a baby I feel like we have rushed it all. I don’t know what to do, I’m not excited but I know if we were to carry on we would both love it. But I feel like there’s still so much to do.
has anyone else had anything similar?
