Question - (3 January 2009) 1 Answers - (Newest, 3 January 2009)
A female United Kingdom age 51-59, anonymous writes:

i found out that i am pregnant ,my husband and i have not been getting along for 8-9 months now. he has bad depression at times and is not easy to live with. i think that i have stayed with him because i love him and feel sorry for him , he has talked of suicide a few times . i got him to go to counselling and he was getting a little better. but now that this has happened he is back to being a nasty person that just wants to watch tv in the attic .we have a daughter that is almost 19 and to have another child with him when he is like this seems like a nightmare. i pay for alot more than he does and if i was off of work with a baby we would lose the house and my daughter is in college. i know we are done now and the thought of having to share a child with such an unstable misrible man that can be nasty at times , makes me so sad. i feel that i have no choice but to have an abortion as i can't imagine having a baby with him can do any good

My adivce to you is to determine why you are staying with him? is it because you love him? or because you feel sorry for him? I can understand you prediciment alittle as Iam pregnant to my partner and we are not getting along at all at the moment! its hard, especially when you know how much harder things are going to get if you keep the baby! I somtimes wish I had not gone through with the pregnancy! Maybe the two of you could get counselling? and maybe you should try talking to him about exactly how you feel. I have had to stop work and we are now living at his mothers house because we couldnt afford the rent. I think you need to way up whats in the best interest of you and the children you already have. Adding another child will just complicate matters worse, so really determine whats right for you. after all we only live once.
