Its not really your husbands decision its yours. Ive had an abortion but it was 100% my decision. And it still ***** thinking about it. So of you do just make sure its what you want if not tell your husband to get on board because it took 2 people to make that baby.

Unfortunately this is BOTH your decision.
BOTH of you need to decide. Listen to your husbands perspective. 6 kids is a lot, and adding another on can bring on even more stress to your family.

Yes it is your body, so ultimately this will be up to you. However, think about what can happen to your marriage.
You need to think in the long run.
Can you afford another baby? If your husband won't be happy will he leave you? Can you support kids on your own if it comes down to it?

If you are early enough, you will not need an actual procedure.
You will only take a pill that will cut off blood flow to the fetus. It is not invasive, and no one needs to know about it.

I don't think you should be bullied by people giving you bad advice, yes you should listen to your husband because you are a team but ultimately it's your decision and if your husband didn't want anymore children he should have taken precautions to prevent it happening again. Takes two to tango. You married him because you share the same beliefs therefore you both need to talk about this more. I know women who have had an abortion and regret it with serious consequences to their relationship and their mental health. Maybe a relationship counsellor could help. Good luck with whatever you decide. Xx

Ever thought about adoption? Find a good family they will pay for your medical expenses and help through the process. Make someone truly happy because they can't conceive and make a good life for your baby. If you don't believe in abortion this is a pretty good option.

I don't get what your asking.  If you don't believe in abortion don't do it.

Soory but it should be a join decision on what to do as your husband helped to make the baby so he should have a say

Take it day by day and let the options and thought of everything sink in. You have plenty of options that both you and your husband should agree on as a team. Good luck
