I have been married for 9 years and we have 4 children. After my last baby we both decided that we did not want any more children. My husband was and is my first love. I have never had to consider abortion ever in my life and until now. I had the IUCD implanted for my family planning after my last child 2 years ago. At the time I was told it is 99.9% effective. And I have not had any issues with it. However, last week, I noticed that the IUCD coming out of my vagina. So I pulled on the string and it came out. As I had not seen my period in a month, I quickly went to a chemist and bought a strip test only for it to come out positive. So yesterday I went to a lab mostly and did a blood pregnancy test and it came back positive. I also did a scan just to confirm and the lab attendant said I have a viable (non-ectopic) pregnancy and I’m 6 weeks pregnant. Now my problem is that my husband wants me to keep itl a secret and abort the pregnancy immediately. Since last night he has been pressuring me, insisting that I do not tell anybody. I am close to my mom so he is scared I may tell her. This morning he told me that if I go on and have this pregnancy he will be upset with me and that I can just fix this problem by having an abortion and that he has bad feelings toward me about this.
I told him having an abortion is not something I am comfortable with but he doesnt want to hear. Mamalettes should I listen to his wishes, save my marriage and abort this pregnancy?
