Hi

Your choice but do remember it is his unborn child as much as your's, and it's also the unborn childs life as well as your's. Nobody can judge you whatever you decide. Single with two kids, you have come this far on your own...do you really need to be with a partner to be a good mum? Can the father not be a good father without joining in marriage?

Do you want your child to have a brother/sister?

You seriously need to ask ' yourself' some more questions.

I wish you well.

You can go with abortion, but usually women who go with abortion because of an unwanted baby go through guilt and depression afterward.

You need to decide what you want to do. I personally don't think people should procreate without protection unless they are prepared to have children and now an innocent life is on the line.

What do YOU want to do?

This is your body, and your life. You do not have to keep the baby, and if you feel that the better option would be to have it aborted, then that is your decision and he can't stop it. You are free to do as you wish at this stage. Please think carefully about it, and also speak to a counsellor who might be able to offer you better advice about it.

Also, do not concern yourself with the friendship, because either way it will change. You should not weigh up the friendship against the pregnancy. The only thing that matters is what you want to do about your pregnancy.

This is a life changing decision either way, and ultimately you're the one who will have to live with it.
