Hello

My husband and i have been together for at least 3 years now . we have an almost 12 month (IN A WEEK )old baby girl .here is my problem

We had a good situation when i was working but i had to recently quit my job due to problems related to our baby health . she was in a daycare and wasnt eating at all and was consistenly coming down with sickness . so we decided with our doctor support that i should stay home and care for her. thank god she is doing a bit better but things are a little tight with only one income supporting our family. 2 incomes were ok to afford our house, cars,bills and other things .

a week ago we found out i was pregnant , my husband isnt thrilled with the idea due to financials reasons . i am scared too but i dont want an abortion . he said it is sad but we dont have a choice . Before you ask we thought about birth control but couldn t use it due the fact that even at 11 month the only our daughter will eat is breastmilk so we didnt use it because the doc said it would reduce my breastmilk quantity.

What about condoms??? You don't have a choice you have to have the baby. It's not his decision. Your daughter wants her little brother/sister. They will be so close in age. There's not a lot of difference between 1 and 2. I have 2 girls that are only 11 months apart. I'm not working either. Get rid of some of your non-neccessity items. If things are really that tight, you can get state or government assistance.
