[quote=Anonymous]I wanted to continue, dh wanted to abort. Here was my thinking: if I continued, there was a decent chance dh would come around eventually, but also a chance he’d resent the child or me, or that the stress would cause us to divorce (the marriage was rocky). That would be bad for my existing kids, and I didn’t want to be in my own with them plus a baby. And he did the majority of the childcare, so it wasn’t like it wouldn’t affect his life much. I aborted and felt resentful and sad for a while. Years later, we’re really happy. I have had moments when I feel regretful, but only in an abstract way for an idealized, perfect child. I never wish I had another daycare pickup or another kid to put to bed. I feel like the family is complete. [/quote]
