don’t know what to do
for a little context i’m a 21 year old mother of one boy already (going in 15 months this month), i have been on birth control for the last couple of months as i’ve been in a new but very serious relationship for the past 6 months (mind you the best one i’ve ever been in he treats me and my son like gold), yesterday i took two clear blue digital test and i’m definitely pregnant. i don’t feel ready to have another child financially or mentally or another c-section especially the last one took an extreme toll on my body. i have provided for my son financially his entire life i just recently put his father on child support i’ve yet to receive a payment yet but i know i will soon i just don’t know if i’m making excuses. i don’t believe in abortion (personally not that i believe it should be taken away from anyone as a right) i just have always felt like i would feel an extreme religious based guilt after. i physically don’t feel like i can have another child right now but the thought of abortion already puts me in tears i genuinely don’t know what to do.

Does your other half know? I think you need to talk to him about it all, he might be excited! If your religious then talk to god.
i did tell him right when i took the test he came home and took another one with me, he was raised not to believe in abortion but he said it’s my body my choice and he’ll respect whatever i want to do
this has been my fear, i don’t want his feelings to change because i am pregnant i guess it’s just kind to be hard to myself or put myself first my son has always been my number one and it feels unfair but yet still the right thing to do
