Me and my partner have been together for almost ten years. We've always struggled a bit financially because I have health issues that makes me unable to work and it has cost us a bit. We have everything we need, but we haven't been able to ever save anything because of bills. Because of this we have always made sure we used protection while having sex. I'm both on birth control, we use condoms as well. Even so, I ended up pregnant and we now have a two years old. He's got everything he needs and more, and we're okay, but we still can't put away money. We just found out I'm pregnant again. I must be super fertile or something. We're so happy about it this time too, but I'm really afraid that our family will say something negative about it when we tell them. It's not an ideal situation and it wasn't planned, but we're still happy about it and it will be tight but we will still make it. We're not living on breadcrumbs. They are constantly criticising us for our financial situation and I'm really scared of their reaction now we're having another. We didn't get any negative reactions with our first and my partner says that he doesn't think anyone will say anything bad, but if they do we'll just cut them out. We're doing the best we can with what we have, it just breaks my heart to think other people probably think we shouldn't have children or that we don't deserve them. I know I shouldn't care, but I can't help it. 😥
