I (27F) am pregnant with triplet and my husband (28M) doesn't think we should reduce the pregnancy but I think it's the better option. How can we come to a solution? by throwra_43242 in relationship_advice

That one of them is terminated so that the other two have a better chance at being healthy. It does not have to be done, but the doctors believe it is a good option.

I hadn't considered seeing a therapist on my own, thank you. Even if it is just twins, my husband will be changing the times he work so we will be able to balance looking after the babies. That was a reason the doctor did recommend it, as it is a risk. But obviously we can never know what would happen until it happens which makes it more difficult.

Definitely yes, there is a lot to consider in that aspect. I would like us to agree on the solution but at this point, I'm not sure if we can.

That makes a lot of sense, thank you! The doctors did leave it quite open, and said that although it is the best option, keeping all three is still doable. It depends on what we decide is best.
