[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Unplanned as in birth control failure or unplanned as in you were being careless? [/quote]

Why does it matter?  Doesn't change the situation.

To answer OP's question-I aborted an unexpected pregnancy but I have less children than you currently have.  The best I can say is make sure both of you are in agreement.  I felt a bit pressured into it and it did breed some resentment.  I was not 100% on board with it and do have some regrets.  There is no taking it back.   We ended up in counseling and that did help but we had a tough year or so. All is well now and though I do miss the idea of that child, in retrospect, I don't think my marriage would have survived another child.  One thing that helps me is thinking.....do I want to be married with my current family size or divorced with one more.  I do think it would have come to that. [/quote]

Similar situation, the only difference is that DH and I were both totally in agreement. We had both been thinking about it but afraid to bring it up.

The effects on the marriage and potential divorce were front and center. We have come very close to divorce becore Nd while our marriage is good now, we both acknowledge that the added stress of that first year would probably tear us apart[/quote]
