Don't let Quaa make you feel bad. Do what is best for your family. We live in a world where women have the ability to choose what happens in our bodies. No shame, only support. take care of yourself.

Answer

I got pregnant when my LO was 11 months old. Not at all a good time for our family. We had an abortion scheduled, but the miscarriage started the day of, so it was taken out of my hands but it was a big relief. Scheduling the abortion and all was overwhelming but I knew it was the right thing for us, and I still know it would’ve been the right thing had the miscarriage not happened. We aren’t ready emotionally or financially, and I’m not physically. The only thing that still makes me a little sad is that my son would be a great older brother, he loves the baby at daycare and he snuggled with my belly the few weeks I was pregnant. I tell myself that he’ll still be a great big brother when he’s older and we can provide the best life for both him and his sibling, and to have a baby now when we’re so unprepared in every way would do him more harm than good. It’s a difficult decision either way.

I am curious how you're doing and what you've felt is the best decision for you? 
I am 42 and have a 14 and 10 year old. I thought I responded 2 weeks ago but I cannot see a comment from me. Anyway..I had a surgical on 12/28. You must do whatever keeps you the most healthy and sane!!

Answer

I got pregnant 3 months postpartum (we had sex only once AND with protection...) and we were NOT prepared to have another one financially, emotionally, or mentally. 
It took a couple weeks to decide but we finally agreed on an abortion. 
It was the hardest decision of my life, but it has shaped our lives so much. I know I would’ve loved the baby so much, but we would never have moved and found a VERY good job for my fiancé and been closer to his parents. Us being where we are in life has improved not only ours, but our 14 month old’s life as well as my fiancé’s parent’s life since they can be close to us and our little one.
We would be living in a tiny and expensive 1 bedroom apartment on the third floor with a very shitty job, away from both of our families if we had kept the baby.
Now it’s your decision, and only yours. And in the end you will do what is right and please don’t let anyone take that away from you. You know your body and you know what you’re capable of.
Do what you feel is best for you. I hope my story helps a little.
