Pregnant and devastated

It's never a good time to get pregnant! Seriously even when you feel like you've got all your ducks in a row the prospect of a baby is terrifying. You've probably got a little bit of time to let the news settle in before you make any choices. Whatever you decide know that you're making the right choice for your life right now.

My (now) husband and I got pregnant 4 years into our relationship just after we bought a home together and I can really relate to everything you wrote. I was on the pill so it was a complete surprise. I'm 100% pro choice but ultimately we decided to become parents and I have to say that I've got zero regrets. More than anything we struggled financially for the first couple of years, but if I had to go back I'm sure I'd make the same choice again. Sometimes things in life don't end up how we plan them, and every once in a while our plans going off the rails ends up amazing.
