I’m currently 5 weeks pregnant (roughly)
problems being:
due to start uni in September( been offered a place)
the course is 6 years long
my boyfriend only earns 300 a month
doesnt live with me
have two kids on my own (their dad passed away)
boyfriend isn’t a hands on parent with his own( doesn’t take her out or spend much one on one time with her)
we are not at the same stage in life (he is 5 years younger and wasn’t working when I met him)
his mental health isn’t great( spend half of our relationship with severe anxiety)
i have to work to pay the bills (obviously)
I do NOT get on with his family
my mum would be so angry(due to the situation not age I’m nearly 30)
constant competition about his daughter to my children (entirely him not me I accept her the same as my own) (for example if she does something off and I point it out (as he would with mine) his response is so do yours even when they don’t?)
I need reassurance that continuing in the pregnancy isn’t in the best interests of the baby nor my current children or myself either.
this was entirely failed contraception.
but I’m struggling with coming to terms with ending the pregnancy even though I know I have to. Some reassurance would really help me right now :(

It feels like you already know what you want to do. I'm so sorry you're in this situation. At the end of the day it's your choice and your decision. Write it on a piece of paper so it's more clearer to you. We're here for you if you need support. I've been there and it feels awful but with time you'll heal xx
