Just found out I'm pregnant and I don't know what to do

Just had a positive pregnancy test and I'm at a loss what to do I need a bit of a handhold I think. For some context I'm 29 and already have a young child. I got with my (now ex) boyfriend in March, however I had known him for a number of years before our relationship.
A number of red flags and pretty quickly this escalated to being physical on one occasion and the relationship ended shortly after. This was the other day.
Today I went to the police station for a Clare's law disclosure but there wasn't anything on there I didn't know about, however it did help me to feel validated and the police consider him high risk for domestic violence.
Obviously as I already have a child, the topic of more children came up. I would've loved another baby but obviously things happened and I know I can't be with this man. I'm devastated because before being with him I had said absolutely no more children and with previous partners I had said this. So the fact being with him changed my mind and then the relationship went so wrong and now I've found out I'm pregnant has sent my head spinning.
My mum unfortunately died last year so I don't have any proper family support. I have told my friend and obviously they're supportive but I just don't know what to do. All I want to do is talk to him about it but I know I can't really.

it may be useful to access some counselling to explore your feelings as am sure going to be mixed emotions and will help you process how to manage your partner
