Hi everyone,
I am currently around 4/5weeks pregnant; I am seeing a partner casually and we had a ‘contraception fail’.
I already have a child from a previous relationship (my son is 6) my ex left when my son was about 4 months old and it was truly one of the hardest (but most rewarding!) experiences of my life.
My current partner doesn’t want children and would like me to have an abortion - however, he has said he will be involved with the child if I decide to proceed with the pregnancy. Although we won’t be able to live together - he cares for his elderly father.
I always wanted to have another child but I’m not sure I’m a strong enough person to be a single mother to two children. But obviously I’m 35 now so I feel like this is probably my last chance.
I’m also terrified about the abortion and scared I’ll regret it.
Just wondering if anyone has been in a similar situation and could offer any advice?
Many thanks
