Update on my unexpected 3rd pregnancy

in Pregnant after 35
I just wanted to thank all of you who took the time out of your day to reply to my post.  I have been struggling with this decision for over a week now.  I have talked to family and friends, but it is hard to talk to people you are close to about the possibility of terminating a pregnancy.  It is a sensitive issue, and I just didn't want to be judged.  I ended up telling my husband that I could never terminate the pregnancy for him, and if that means divorce, then so be it.  I would much rather go through with the pregnancy and know that I gave this baby a chance.  The worst case scenario would be that I wouldn't be able to handle 3 young kids on my own and I would have to put the baby up for adoption.  Although, I know in my heart that I could probably never give away my baby.  Thank you again.  I hope you all have healthy pregnancies.

    Good luck with this. I hope your decision gives you some peace and allows you to plan your next steps with some surety and confidence.

    I also hope that your husband remains supportive of the kids you already have, if he can't find it in himself to

    I was one of many who read your initial post and did not know how to respond...it's such a personal decision and such a difficult position to be in.  It sounds as though you've done some soul searching and I truly hope that you can take comfort in yo

    I agree with op that your husband has no right to tell you what to do. I know it had to be an extremely hard decision for you but I think that you will find peace from it. He needs to grow up and accept responsibility that he has to deal with consequences

    I'm also pregnant with my third that was a complete surprise.  In our relationship, I was the one struggling with the idea of another child.  But, as the pregnancy has progressed, I've come to truly love this child and can't wait to meet her ver
