Your boyfriend sounds like a literal piece of garbage. It’s your body, your choice. He absolutely should not be threatening you especially when you don’t have other options, that’s abuse and he’s manipulating you. Do you have any friends that could take you in temporarily? Being a stay at home mom is a very very dangerous place when you are not married because it puts you in a vulnerable place. I would try to find some place to stay and file for child support from your boyfriend for your 9 year old. Do not stay with him please, this whole situation has abuse written all over it. Are there other family members? Maybe a local YMCA or women’s shelter. Regardless try to get a job so you have money of your own and a security blanket.
Abortion due to chronic insomnia and lack of support
I'm 29 years old and I really want an abortion but my boyfriend and 9 year old sons father is threatening to kick me out if I have one. I haven't slept more than 3-4 hrs per night since I found out I was pregnant. I'm now 13.5 weeks pregnant and feel like I'm anxious and depressed because of not sleeping and lack of emotional support. My Mother and Father are alcoholics that live in another state so living with them is not an option if he kicks me out. I have no other family. What should I do? I want more kids but I can't take the constant insomnia anymore. It's making me sick. If I keep the baby, I will at least have a roof over my head and food to eat. I am a stay at home mom and I don't have a car. My options are extremely limited.

Thank you so much ❤ I'm just thankful for my son, he's the only good thing to come out of this relationship.

Just please do not resent the baby for your boyfriends awfulness. Sorry to be so harsh but start making a plan right now. Start saving money in a private account and start looking for jobs, even if it’s part time like driving for Uber eats or personal grocery shopper, anything to bring your own income. Start making a plan to leave and when you do file for child support. Do not let him manipulate you and guys like him prey on women who do not have strong family ties. Stay strong, wishing you only the best

We've been together 10 years and I just feel so used. I hope I can see this pregnancy through and get on my own feet financially to finally be free from him. Shelters are awful unfortunately and are dirty. Many people steal and have substance abuse issues. Unfortunately, I tried to leave before and that was much worse.
