Tough times

I recently posted a thread about my situation. I'm faced with a pregnancy (9 weeks) with a guy who I adore but we are in a relatively new relationship (6month) we are both 30 and I have a 18 month old daughter from a previous relationship that broke down due to abusive behaviours.
My ex doesn't know about my new relationship and I'm very concerned about his reaction. And to announce the pregnancy fills me with dread. Not only that, my new relationship has its concerns as we both in recovery from mental health issues and the stability just isn't there yet I'm not confident in our strength. I've made the decision to terminate as I truly believe it's the most responsible thing to do albeit it's been a hard long 2 weeks of conflict individually and relationship wise with we can't go through with the termination to it's for the best to terminate. My partner wants to keep the baby as his heart rules his head and I've been faced with some tough rows along with 'is the baby even mine' 'someone is making you do this'. He has his demons and we've supported each other well during tough times. I understand I'm choosing not to make him a dad and that's destroying to both him and me, but I know I'm going to be seriously damaged if I continue the pregnancy. We can't seem to be on the same page with this and we're both suffering because of our lack of understanding. I'm so upset of the whole situation and feel totally to blame and lost.
