Hi! I'm Luci, I'm 24, and I'm 10 weeks pregnant. I was on the pill, so it was a huge shock!! I've been with my partner for 2 years, and we are still head over heels in love with each other.
He isn't too pleased about the pregnancy, which makes it hard. We discussed termination, and we went ahead and booked one, which would have taken place tomorrow morning. I was finding it hard to discuss the pregnancy with anyone, because I felt like I needed to come to terms with it by myself, and form my own opinion of how I felt. I spoke to my OH's mum, and she begged me to make an appointment with a pregnancy crisis councillor, which I did, and I went to it yesterday.
She was the most amazing woman, and she helped me to come to terms with the way I was feeling about my baby, and the changes it was having on my body. It made me realise how much I already love it, and how I feel I have to love it and protect it enough for both me and my partner.
My partner has said no matter what I decide he will stand by me, and I believe him 100%. Am just scare, because this isn't what I had planned, no matter how broody and maternal I was feeling. I've always been very, very slim, and my belly is starting to fill out, which makes me feel uncomfortable
I don't feel able to tell my family yet, we're going through a very tough time, my dad is terminally ill, and has a matter of weeks left, so I don't really have anyone to talk to I have no idea about the stages of pregnancy, of what I should or shouldn't be doing It still doesn't feel real!!
If anyone has any help, tips or advice, they are grateful received!!
Thank you!!
