Had an abortion now pregnant again with an abusive guy

I thought my dreams were coming true I thought I was going to finally have a family, a loving partner. I’ve been with him for six months or so and I got pregnant well as soon as we found out, he threatened to murder me so I was very uncomfortable and had an abortion. Well, he’s a narcissist and had a mask on the whole time so of course I fell into the trap two months later I’m pregnant again I’m almost 3 months pregnant now and it’s just as worse if not more than the last time he’s super abusive blames me that I’m pregnant even though we’ve been planning this since we met we even put a deposit down on an apartment but come to find out he’s been having sex with his ex the whole time and she reached out to me telling me that he’s a player and a liar. Yeah he’s been lying to my face. Every chance that he got I feel super unprepared, no money no support as my families in New York and I’m in California. I have three dogs that I take care of and I’m being blamed that I’m setting myself up for failure and struggle because I have three dogs. I work from home so being pregnant and being with the baby would be easy but I have no support. I don’t know what to do. I don’t wanna get another abortion, but I also don’t want the kid to live in in poverty with an abusive father, I don’t wanna live with him. I won’t, but I don’t know what to do. My family’s mad at me that I even let him back into my life now, of course I’m being blamed for everything by my family and by him the only person that knows this is my neighbor and she’s pregnant too, so she understands please help. I keep going to church and praying to God, but I don’t know what to do I considered giving the baby up for adoption, but I’m 39 and I just always wanted a family. The fairytale just seems like I’ll never be able to get it. Of course he plays the victim, but the victim is really me and the Babies may the first baby just rest in peace. 😓😇

Listen honey.
I know you’re going through some tough times.
Leave him!
Reach out for help. You don’t have to be with him to have a beautiful family you and your baby will be fine I know it’s hard right. Just think when you have your little human in your arms and he/ she will smile at you.

Thats definitely a tough situation and im sorry you’re going through that. I 100% understood your part about not having family near. Im also from New York and moved to California 6 months ago with my husband. Don’t wait too long to leave! Its unnerving that he threatened to harm you ! Always take the threats seriously! it seems as if you don’t really fully know him enough to be dating him, let alone having a baby 🥺🫤

Alone time

This is probably not a big deal but I just want to share that after I put my baby to sleep, my husband also went to go to bed early so I spent my free time watching my show while eating ice cream and chips and as a stay at home mom sometimes that’s all I need. No one needed anything from me, I didn’t have anything to do, and I felt at ease knowing I was just existing…

True or false

I believe all women lose sexual interest if you disappoint them emotionally.

Life insurance

Hey all, looking at life insurance options now that I am expecting and wondering if anyone has any advice. It seems like a bit of a mindfield!

Getting turned down for jobs

Does anyone else feel like they are getting turned down for jobs because the employer is worried about you having more babies? I've had quite a few interviews lately all of which seemed to go well only to be rejected. Before having a child I found it fairly easy to get a job but am now really struggling.

Going out alone with the baby.

Does anyone else struggle to go out alone with their baby? I seem to be okay when I am with my fiancé or a family member, but alone I feel so anxious. Does anyone else get this or have gotten past it?

Send help, slowly going insane 🤪
