We have an 8 year old daughter and a 1 year old baby girl (just turned 1 in October). There was a mix up at the pharmacy with my birth control. I was unable to insert a new Nuva ring in time for my January cycle.

Anyway, our wedding anniversary was during my “fertile window” this month. I can’t “hold out” on our anniversary ..right?! So we had sex. That day and the next day🤦🏽‍♀️. Never in my wildest dreams did I think I would get pregnant. That was so not on my radar for 2019. But the moment I began cramping ..I knew I was pregnant. I never get cramps before AF. So it was the first sign. Same feeling I got with my 1 year old.

I took a few tests this week and they all came back positive. He’s not happy. He has all these worries about having 3 kids right now. His job requires him to work a lot! In addition, there were a few things we wanted to accomplish before even thinking about another child. I was perfectly content with my 2 girls.

But, we’re grown & married. I’m pregnant now. We have to figure it out. He’s put it out there that I should “take care of it” because we’re not ready. But, that’s the furthest thing from my mind. I would never knowingly “get rid of” a blessing. & that’s exactly what children are.

I don’t know how to feel. I want to be excited. But his attitude about the whole thing makes it hard to be happy about the pregnancy. I don’t want to have this cause major issues in our marriage. “He”ll come around” is what I keep telling myself. Has anyone else dealt with this type of situation before ??
