Thank you so much for your reply and your advice. Well, I know he won't make me have an abortion past 12 weeks, he thinks once it "looks" more like a baby, then it's a baby.
Right now the biggest problem is, he doesn't want to accept any kind of government assistance. He grew up with a mom on assistance, and doesn't want that for his family. I understand, but we also have a unique situation. His ex-wife, and mother of two of his kids, is in jail for embezzling money, and we lost her help paying for the kids completely when she went to jail. We weren't expecting her to go to jail when she did, so the new expenses caught us by surprise. We're managing, and he got a second job, but I know a new baby will make us struggle even more. I feel really guilty for not being able to have an abortion, but I can't, I just can't.
The only hope we have is that I might have a new job in the next 3 months, which would mean I was making twice my salary now, which would ease the burden a lot, and even make him warm up to the idea of a new baby. I just feel at such a loss. I'm going to take your advice, and hold steady on my decision, and not let him talk me out of what I have already decided. I know he will love this baby, and come around, I'm just kind of shocked by his negative reaction. I thought he'd support my decision, but I can also tell he's really scared about all of this.
