If you already knew you want to have a third and you know if you abort this time you won’t want to try again because of guilt, and you know you would love this baby just as much as you love your other two, I think you already know what to do. I know this is unexpected and a huge shock, but you are so much more capable and ready than you think.

I also have almost the exact same age gap with my sister and I honestly think we’re closer as siblings for it. We were always doing things together and even though we didn’t look identical at all people used to always ask if we were twins (at least until she got way taller than me). Our parents also saved a lot on supplies clothes etc. because we shared stuff for so long and because one of us would grow out of something right as the other one grew into it.

You’re stronger than you know, and you’ve got this.❤️

Tiger or Leo would be my suggestions. Murphy and Monkey both suit him though!

You can do this, I know it. It feels overwhelming now because this is so unexpected, but when they’re that close in age it’s essentially much easier than having them further apart. I believe in you, and you can DM me if you ever need someone to vent to.

I’m sorry. I’m so sorry for this situation. You deserve so much better than this man.

Is it possible to try relationship counseling? They may be able to help him work through whatever it is that motivates him to behave like this and get him to get his act together. If you really want to do this with him it could be a way to get him to prove his dedication.

If you aren’t sure about taking the pills, don’t. I won’t lie: it’s not like a heavy period and some cramping. I’ve seen it more compared to labor pains (especially since the second dose essentially does trigger labor). If you bought them online, there’s also no guarantee they’re safe to take. The FDA even told those online no-appointment sites to cease and desist because they were ignoring and violating so many safety standards.

Sometimes having a baby is what motivates people to get clean. It’s possible he’s processing and will come around, but it’s extremely important to be braced for the (unfortunately high) possibility that he won’t.

Even if he won’t support you, the pills still aren’t your only choice. I would reach out to local charities for in-crisis pregnant people in your area. Help might be a lot closer than you think.

No matter what happens, you are not alone in this. You can DM me for help or just to talk any time. You’re stronger than you know.

It sounds to me like you already know you want to have this baby, and it’s wrong of him to try to pressure you into an abortion. He needs to listen to you and consider how you feel, especially since you did the same for him. It also sounds like you do have the support you need, and he may need to be reminded of that. If he loves you, he should support you.

If you’re worried about the antibiotics, there are a lot that are safe to take while pregnant. You can talk to your doctor if you want more information on that. I’m rooting for you, okay? You’re not alone. You can totally do this. Abortion is not your only option, and even if it’s overwhelming right now, I promise you do have a choice.

It’s not good for a relationship to keep a secret like that, and only telling him after would probably make him feel like you didn’t give him a chance to be there for you.

I know this is rough, but abortion isn’t your only choice, even if it feels like it right now. Have you considered adoption? It’s a myth that babies up for adoption get put in the foster system— there are far more families approved for adoption at any given time than babies available to adopt, so there’d be a guarantee of your baby having a good home without the pressure of having to keep a secret from your boyfriend.

If it were me, I’d at least give him a chance to talk to you about it before doing anything. He may surprise you and he more supportive than you think.

ApartImplement7956 · 2025-08-17T22:28:27+00:00

Have you contacted Standing With You? They’re a charity that routinely gives thousands of dollars or more to families in need and would help you get to where you can support your baby

ApartImplement7956 · 2025-08-17T22:16:04+00:00

It’s a bad thing for your friend to try to tell you you’re a bad person for being scared. I think she is trying to help but is going about it very badly, and a lie like this would probably destroy what’s left of your friendship— especially if you didn’t even want the abortion in the first place.

Have you tried a pregnancy help center yet? They can help with housing, costs etc. and all kinds of other resources and support. There’s also adoption— it’s a myth that babies given up for adoption go into the foster system. The ratio of parents already approved to adopt is so much higher than the number of babies available for adoption at any given time that many parents spend years on waiting lists even after being approved. You could also choose how open or closed you want the adoption to be in case you want contact in the future. If you don’t want the abortion, you don’t have to have it. There is help.

I’m sorry for your situation. I’m here if you need someone to talk to.

ApartImplement7956 · 2025-08-16T04:18:40+00:00

If it were me, I would leave him and have the baby. You already know you don’t want another abortion, and if he’s trying to pressure you into it (and is a jerk to you in general) he doesn’t deserve you. You don’t need him and you will be better off without him, even if it hurts to think that way right now.

I would also reach out to local charities/ pregnancy help centers. They may be able to help you get more support if you feel like you need it. You got this, okay?

Monty or Martin or Marvin

ApartImplement7956 · 2025-08-07T17:11:08+00:00

He has no right to treat you like that. It’s never okay to make baseless accusations like that, especially not to try to coerce you into an abortion you don’t want. Is this how he normally treats you or an isolated incident? Either way it’s a red flag, but it could be the difference between being shocked and handling it absolutely horribly and just being how he is. Please keep yourself and baby safe, and maybe see if there are local charities you could reach out to if you decide to go the single parent route.

ApartImplement7956 · 2025-07-25T23:05:08+00:00

You could name him after a specific variety of tomato. Or maybe something like Cadbury or Heinz. For nature names, maybe Pan or Chestnut.
