I've got two of my own and I thought I was done ... and then the unexpected happened.
  • Ooops!

    Seems like someone who is pretty sure they don't want another kid would go the extra mile with the birth control.

    Aaaanyway....

    Although I'm pro-choice, I also view abortion as a tragic last resort. If it's not a health risk to you, you could have the baby and give it up for adoption. Of course, in your specific situation, that's probably actually not an option... :)

    As to Cary's suggestion -- I'm not clear if your husband really wants this child enough to be a primary caregiver. That, to me, is the big question.

    In my humble opinion... if it was me... knowing my own sensitive and sentimental nature...

    • if your health was not at risk and...
    • if I wanted child and...
    • if I was willing to be primary caregiver...

    an abortion would break my heart.

    But that's a lot of "if"'s.
