Me and my partner have been together for 3 years we have a 2 year old daughter and I have recently found out iam pregnant with baby no 2 and he’s not happy at all he thinks he’s been “baby trapped” which that is certainly not the case i wasn’t ready for another baby either but that doesn’t mean I’m not happy and excited, he has given me an ultimatum that if I don’t have an abortion he will leave me, he says he will still be in our kids lives but will leave and I don’t know what to do he’s never been like this before

He sounds gross 🚮

First of all, I’m sorry you’re dealing with this🤍. You don’t deserve any of this. Second of all, leave him and get child support. Hes 🚮.

If he’s still willing to be in the kids lives why would he leave you for an unexpected pregnancy? Certainly he knows enough about biology to understand he played a part..?
If you have family to go stay with for a while, I would do that while you guys figure out where the relationship stands. It sounds like you don’t want an abortion. Nevertheless, sounds like a toxic environment for the child you already share. Take some space away from him if you can!

Don’t let him think he has that type of control over you. At the end of the day you will be the one who has to live with it for the rest of your life. If he isn’t willing to step up too bad for him.
He’s quite confused and you don’t deserve that

Am sorry your going thru this. He sounds awful but honestly because am not ready for another I use protection even if my husband tells me he doesnt want to use it. If we dont use it we dont do anything because am not prepared and we already have 2 together and we have agreed for the third I just dont feel ready.

Baby trapped?!!! He put the baby in you!! If anyone's being baby trapped it's the mumma as we have to carry their children for months while they can live their lives freely. Gosh an abortion itself is traumatising too, living with the feelings and going through it all isn't so black and white. I'd tell him to go get a vasectomy before telling you what to do with your body
