Sweetie, I've followed your posts from the beginnning, and I know you were intent on extricating yourself from this married man. Now, you find yourself pregnant with his child. He didn't respond in a supportive manner initially, telling you to "get rid of it!!" So harsh and hurtful. He's irresponsible and undependable. Can you manage this on your own...good question. You mentioned your daughter, and her excitement at it. How old is she? Also, are you employed and how will this impact your work if you are alone? A small infant needs much care and attention.
I do not recommend abortion. It is so sad to resort to that. And I think in the longrun, you would regret it! If this man is not willing to accept responsibility and help you (much less leave his wife and marry you!), and you feel you cannot manage on your own, then please consider adoption. There are many couples waiting for little babies and who would love them and give them wonderful homes.
