OP, don’t have that baby. You will be fine if you abort, sooner or later. Or maybe you will live with regret but it won’t be real, it will only be in your head if you know what I mean.

However if you bring the baby into your now more or less manageable situation, it will quickly turn it into a mess.
I had to find a job after staying home for 6 years. The hardest part was overcoming the inertia of not having to go to work. I see so many instances of women having babies just to avoid facing the need to go out and get a job. They are in intact marriages but they are digging themselves deep; you are in a more precarious situation so you will dig yourself even deeper. 
I am 43 and separated but fortunately never had to face that choice. I can’t imagine adding even the smallest extra concern into the situation I am in now. I am exhausted by parenting over the week as well as most weekends and working full time, even though I have a great commute, some flexibility, and an older child who at least doesn’t require childcare when school is out for a day or two. 
But the worst of all, having multiple young kids will make you extremely vulnerable. I can’t imagine you are even considering it! 
Good luck in whatever you decide. You will be fine and will get by on CS from both men even in the worst case scenario.[/quote]
