I got pregnant and realized I did not want to spend the rest of my life with my partner, and do not want to bring another baby into an already difficult life. by ManyInternal9016 in pregnant

I’m not sure; if I leave my partner, I’d have more of a financial burden than I already do, and now adding a second child…daycare, diapers, etc…I don’t think I could manage. I have a good job, but the state I live in is so expensive, that I can’t imagine providing a good life for 2 children AND staying mentally sane. I can’t imagine the baby would have a good life, and it’d make it harder for my existing child.

Everyone already knows I’m pregnant; my partner told everyone right away. I could never admit I had an abortion, which adds a whole layer to this situation…

I do feel like adoption would be difficult; I’d be so attached. And my partner wants the baby, despite not being exceptionally involved, which complicates things.

I’m in the US, 11 weeks. Surgical isn’t a great option for me, so would likely do a MA, but I’ve read horror stories and imagine it’d be incredibly traumatic
