im 20 weeks pregnant with my 3rd child, this one unplanned. contraception failed so this was a major shock. i want to keep the baby but my partner is insistant i get rid, i have to keep making appointments to terminate as he makes me book them, when he isnt around i then have to cancel them and make excuses. it turns out he is seeing another woman! 

he wont leave, no matter how much i ask him too, and legally i have no rights as both our names are on the tenancy. 

he is making my life hell, even when i have left he continues to do so. 

i just want support from somewhere, someone to talk to. none of my feelings are being considered atall

    Kelly Ann, I am so sorry to hear all of this.

    Could you seek help from a women's refuge?  I am sure they would be able to advise you if nothing else.  Your local Police Station would be able to tell you their contact details.

    Don't be forced into terminating your pregnancy.

    Good luck.

    It always take 2.

    I know my daughter went thru this at 17 or so, she never told me for many years....she was in no position to raise a child and I'm thankful she chose her way out at that time.

    Children are a major responsibility and a good mom and dad are so important, I don't care what anyone says.....

    I'll just share a short story of a friend's daughter recently....this daughter is 47 and has a daughter who is 29 and the child's father was never never around in her life....now this mom just got pregnant 29 yrs later by a boyfriend who has been nothing but trouble in her life and she could not  have an abortion....this baby is 1 yr old now....and she loves the baby, but a horrific struggle to get support for this child.....

    Women have to make better choices for these lifelong consequences....

    I hope you will work this out.

    Hi Kelly-ann67826

    It is very sad to hear that you're partner want to get rid of the baby! in my opinion just keep the baby and tell him that abortion is very dangerous. It can cause a danger where you can't get pregnant another time. Are you married or cohabiting?

    You don't deserve to have a life as 'hell'. Stand for yourself and be strong!
