stressed and pregnant again

Ok so I just gave birth 2 months ago. I'm 4 weeks pregnant . Please don't judge . It wasn't planned . But i wanna have this baby . I was told that I couldn't get pregnant once . But once I've gotten pregnant with my first it was like a miracle to me . So for me to hear I'm pregnant again ....im just overwhelmed with happiness.  But my biggest critic is my mom . She's pushing me to get an abortion. I'm just so upset abortion nd hurt . I just needed to vent

My mom is the SAME way. I'm 23, have a stable job, income, my hubby, just got our first vehicle and his parents gave us a piece of land that we just finished a small apartment on. We have a daughter that's 18 months old, but when my mom found out I was pregnant, she hated it. She was ready for me to miscarry. It's a burden to her. Even until the day my daughter was born, she didn't let me contact my hubby. Took every form of communication so that I couldn't call him. I spent the night with him ONE time last month, the only time we've stayed a night together since we started dating. and she was physical with me. Grabbing me saying she was gonna take me to the free clinic for birth control. What the heck? I'm 21 weeks along now and haven't told her I'm pregnant again. She's gonna take the same route your mom is.

Your body, your baby.  Do not listen to your mom.  She has no say, and she has no right to tell anybody much less you to terminate a pregnancy.  I would tell her to stay out of it.

Totally understand, I really hope she comes around and supports you eventually. And if not then you always have your husband which I'm sure will be there for you and his growing family

Thank you so much ladies.  She makes unnecessary comments all the time it's really getting on my nerves . At least i waited to have a baby at 24 . She had me at 15 . Smh I say it was all in God's plan . My fiance is very happy . It would just be nice to have my mother's encouragement

Congrats:) clearly this is meant to be. No one should force their opinion into you like that or make you feel guilty. She's probably coming out of a place of concern which is understandable you will have your hands full. But it's your body and your life. She needs to take a step back and support you even if she doesn't agree.

I don't understand how people always jump to abortion it's so frustrating abortion is not a form of birth control... don't let her try and make that decision for you if you want your baby keep your baby

Congratulations! Its really amazing that you got pregnant when you were told you couldn't. Don't worry about what anyone says. It's your decision. It'll be a little difficult but you can do it if that's what you want. I got pregnant 4 months after giving birth( not as soon as you but fairly quick) and I wouldn't change it for anything. My father in law makes annoying comments like "you know you dont always have to be pregnant" and stuff like that but at the end of the day my husband and i are happy and we dont care what any thinks. Just think how close your babies will grow up. I know its difficult with peoples judgmental opinions but you can do this. Goodluck . hope you feel better

Don't do it if u don't want to. It's actually against the law from what I understand to force some one to get an abortion. Follow ur heart and do what u want... It's not gonna be easy if u decide to keep it but it's not the end of the world. You wouldn't be the first and u won't be the last. Keep ur head up and good luck
