I love my boyfriend with all my heart, together for 2 years, have travelled the world together and we are great.. We Both work full time now in stable jobs and living together.
2 weeks ago, a positive pregnancy test - not planned, haven't tried to conceive at all.
Although firstly scared by it, I've come round to the idea and want this baby, my partner is 100 % against it and although it hasn't yet I can see this will drive a big wedge between us.
I want more than anything to make him happy and be with him but I want to make myself happy as well. Hes wanting termination and promises me we have all the time in the world for kids and he wants them in a few years but not now. We are 26 and 25. Do I put my foot down and say I'm keeping it and run the risk of losing him (he said he won't leave me but you never know) or do I go through with termination and face the guilt for the rest of my life.
It doesn't help that our closest family is over 200 miles away and we don't have any support nearby.
I'm the strongest person I know but this is tough, I'm currently off work with sickness and stress over it all.
I'm so lucky to have gone my whole life until now without one single little bit of regret and I worry whatever decision I make now is going to result in regret and guilt.
This forum has brought some comfort in reading others posts. I'd appreciate any advice people can give. Thank you
