broken hearted.

Hey ladies so I'm on my second pregnancy. I was really scared at first but i feel as every baby as a miracle and came to terms with it and was finally excited. Well this is my boyfriends 3rd child and he doesn't want it. It was never planned but the way he is acting is breaking my heart he wants me to abort the pregnancy and it hurts Because he knows how against it i am. He feels we don't need another this soon and is trying everything to get me to abort we are only 7 weeks along. I've tried telling him how i felt about it but he doesn't want to listen to a thing i say. Usually he is a sweet and caring boyfriend but this has turned him utterly mean and cold hearted and i don't know what to do. We have our first appointment next week and i don't see it going well because of how he's acting.im lost i love my children and I'm scared

I'm currently 9 weeks pregnant with my first kid.the father already has a son, he tried convincing me to get rid of it (I'm 100% against abortions).he told me he couldnt afford to look after 2 kids. We have never been  together. I'm on a benefit that leaves me with $100 left which I spend on baby stuff yet the father works full time. Its hard to break away from them but its worse being with them if its too stressful as not good for baby.. As long as u have heaps of support from family etc u don't need him

Honey he isn't the one carrying it inside for 9 months. . .you are. . .and if you want the baby then you keep that baby. . .I didn't know how my boyfriend would react. .but my plan was alwayd keep it even if he didn't want it. . .he helped make it and he needs to be responsible and help you take care of it. .all that stress isn't good for you or baby. Remember you have to think for two now. If baby is what you want then maybe consider taking a break from your boyfriend.

Yeah if he is pressuring you into getting an abortion and you really don't to do so, then don't. My friend did it cuz she loved him and the day after he broke it off with her and got back with his ex, not saying this will happen to you, but it he was to leave you at least you are not alone, you have your kid which is a part of you, now she is depressed and has no one other than me to talk to and wishes she would have never done that being she was against it too. Do what you want, not what he is telling you to do. No man, is worth you taking your children's life away

It's better to know how cold hearted he can be before baby is here and has to be around him, you do what you feel is right you can do it!

Don't let anyone pressure you into aborting your baby. If you let him bully you into it chances are you will resent him and the relationship will break down anyway then you have lost him and a baby you would have wanted. It's not a choice you can let someone else make as at the end of the day it's you who will have to go through it and give the final go ahead, putting it all on you.  :)

He doesn't deserve to be a father.. and I'm sorry if I offend you, but you're better off without him. He seems like a tool. He knew the risk he was taking in having unprotected sex, and now that a child is involved, he deems it necessary for you to abort?!! There are plenty of women who would give anything to be in your position, to be given the opportunity to become a mom, to be pregnant, to go through labour... take it for what it is, your baby is a miracle and God is blessing you with the best gift of all.
