If you do not want to continue on with your pregnancy you need to speak with your DR and discuss the option of abortion.
You should be 10000000% sure that is what you want to do though before you go ahead.
If you dont want a baby for another 18 months maybe you should also discuss contraception with your DR to save from having to do this again.

Granted parenthood can be tough at times, but having a child is the most wonderful gift.

I'd give it some serious thought. You have to be sure you wont regret it for the rest of your life.

This is gonna sound a little harsh, I am not judging you but I have been there done that. Hubby and I were not planning to have more children, we had 2 beautiful girls and I had and IUD in, the chances of getting preggers with an IUD is less then 1%....9 months ago I found I was pregnant. It was stressful because we thought we were done and we had just given EVERYTHING away. I never thought of ending my pregnancy and neither did he. I think that there is ALWAYS a risk when you are having intercouse, and you have to be ready to  deal with the consequeces, you will NEVER be 100% prepared to have child. Plus is not like neither of you wanted children, your gift just came a little early that's all!! Just think about it, I mean REALLY think about it!!!

you need to talk to your dr.  Life has brought you a beautiful gift, many women spend years trying to get pregnant or have miscarriage after miscarriage.  I really hope that you and your husband realize what a gift this is.  Having a baby is a lot of work and very time consuming, but so many people have had a baby and been able to continue doing what they do in life (for example I know many women who went to school, worked full time, AND had a few children while doing all of the above).

I'm glad that you at least realize the work and responsibility involved in raising a child, a year and half isn't that far away.

Hello, personally it sounds like you might be kinda scared about being a parent right now. If you are planning on have a baby in a year and half, perhaps that is not the right time for you and your hubby. Just remember that sometimes life offers us things that are unexpected and in the end we deal with it, and they make us better people (hopefully). I hope that you and your husband will realize that it takes love to raise a baby (amongst other things) but mostly love. Think about this decision. Terminating your pregnancy might not be the right answer for you if in 1.5 years you want to have a family. By the time this baby arrives it will almost be a year. Good Luck!
