Staff asked 4 months ago

Good day my people. Please help a confused mother. I'm a 27 years old second time mom. I have a 6yrs old daughter who lives with my mom in Nigeria. I'm a second year medical student in America (2 more years of school) while my husband is also a student in UK (16 more months of school). My husband and I usually travel to Nigeria annually to see my daughter but last Christmas instead of going to Nigeria we decided to spend the holiday together in UK after which I came back and realized I was pregnant against my wish. Now the reason why this is completely against my wish is because I'm here on scholarship with no family member, I struggle to support myself by working only on Saturday nights as you cannot combine medical school with anything else. I cannot put my school on hold hence I am here on scholarship with a student visa and cannot be out of school for more than 3months. At first I wanted to sue my doctor because I was on birth control and have no intention of having another baby until after my school, but on a second thought I felt it might be Gods plan for me. Now the problem is, I don't seem to figure out how to deal with this double edged situation without having my mess together. No kind of financial help, no body to assist me with the baby and at the same time deal my studies. Please mothers I do not bring this here so as to be pitied rather I brought it here in search of ideas and prayers. I know I will survive it because I have survived so many bad situations. Your advice and ideas will be greatly appreciated (abortion is not an option) thank you
