I also believe that you will never regret the children you have, but will regret the children you don't have. I think if you were to terminate the pregnancy because of the way your partner feels, then this could cause serious issues for the relationship because you may grow to resent him. I hope you manage to come to an agreement that you are happy with x
I think you'll never regret keeping a baby, but you may regret not keeping it. There's also a high chance that you'd grow to resent your partner if the only reason you terminate it is because he doesn't want it.
No one should tell you that you will regret children you don’t have- it’s your choice and it’s normal to feel all the emotions 🤍
You said it - I can’t imagine terminating. You keep that angel! It’ll be lovely having another child closer in age to your 21 month old, your husband will have to come to terms with it, it takes two to make a baby and he will love his child. Do not terminate a baby for someone else even if you do agree with their points. You don’t know what the future holds, maybe you’ll come into money, maybe they’ll be an opportunity to upsize, it’s clear you love that baby already, while valid, in the grand scheme of things, your husbands points are minimal when faced with the love a mother has for her baby xx
I found out I was pregnant with my second when my little girl had just turned 1, we were in the exact same situation no space, and financially struggle, me and my partner sat down and talked about termination however we both decided to keep baby, he’s here now and I’m so glad we decided against a termination, we’ve made space and the money situation we just worked out our income together and cancelled subscriptions that we didn’t need/use, worked out a budget and everything’s working out just fine x
Thanks for your comments ladies. Really helpful. I think I have come to the decision that I want to keep our baby. Sadly there is nothing I can do to change his mind, so we are in the very sad situation of carrying on for now with one of us in, and the other out 😔😔 although he has said he will of course support me and stand by me and love me and the child no matter what. It’s just not what he wants.
Personally I believe in the long run you won't ever regret having this child, but you may regret terminating. It's such a tough one because of finances etc but I'd definitely say go with your heart ❤️
