Positive test

I really don’t know what to do or how I’ve let this happen!! I’m 26, first time mum to a 4 month old little girl (on the 4th January). I got my first period back pp on 14th November and nothing since. I know periods can be irregular postpartum so wasn’t worried (it’s been 39 days and I did sometimes have longer cycles pre baby). However the past few days I’ve had a bit of a sickly feeling but thought nothing of it until tonight. Me and my partner have has sex a few times since having our little girl and I haven’t sorted my contraception out yet so haven’t been using any which I know was stupid. Maybe TMI but he pulled out a couple of times and once I had I got the morning after pill as a precaution (I know this isn’t effective if you’ve ovulated but I didn’t know due to just getting my period back). Thinking about this and how I was feeling quite sick, I did a test tonight and it’s positive and now I’m stressing so much. Our little girl wasn’t planned and to be honest, when I told my partner he was happy but then had a few doubts after having a few days to think about it. But he came round and is absolutely besotted by our daughter and is the best dad ever to her. I just don’t know how he’ll feel about me getting pregnant so soon after and I really don’t know how to feel either. We knew we wanted another but definitely not this soon. All options are running through my head. Don’t know why I’m writing this but needed to get it out and hopefully get some advice😩

I’ve had my two children close in age if you want to message me for any advice/insignt x

You’re not alone, I had my second baby in August and 3m later accidentally got pregnant again meaning I would be having 3 under 3 and 2 under 1. We potentially want a 3rd at some point but I knew that now just isn’t the right time so I chose to not go ahead with the pregnancy which is something I never thought I’d do but I knew it was the right decision. I’d say weigh up all your options, discuss it with your partner and do whatever is best for you and your family but also don’t let anyone force you into doing something you don’t want whether that’s going ahead with it or not
