I'm 26, I'm a mother of a 7yr boy and have been with my current partner for two years now. He's beautiful- the best guy I've ever known. couldn't hurt a fly.
About 6 months ago he asked me to try for a baby with him. I was reluctant at first as we aren't married and i always said i wouldn't have another child out of wedlock. He persisted so eventually i thought it through and i agreed.
Months went by and he'd even get really disappointed every time I'd get my period.
I'm now 8wks pregnant. When i first told him that i was pregnant- he was over the moon- so happy. he even kissed my tummy and said "I'm going to be a daddy, I'm so happy babe".
Two wk ago we decided to tell his mother-she doesn't approve because she's not old enough to be a grandmother yet- she's 58!

Now he's always been brought up to have the utmost respect for his parents. The last thing he'd ever want to do is disappoint his mother.
He' s now telling me i should get an abortion! And has already booked me in to the clinic. I told him i can't get an abortion not after this is what we planned for in the first place, it'll psychologically destroy me.
But he won't listen to me- it's like his mother is making him choose and i know it's tearing him apart but he's made his final decision and i don't have a say.
I wan this baby and honestly my gut feeling is telling me that having an abortion isn't the right thing to be doing, I've never have a gut feeling so strong before...I'm so scared, i don't know what to do coz i can't lose him either- he's the love of my life.

Can anybody help? give me some advice?

When you first have a baby there is always questions about the sex.
I have two boys, I was pretty disappointed when found out my second child was another boy, It also depressed me, This time I'm hoping for my girl. I know I should just be wishing that it's Healthy but I'm really Anxious to have a girl...Could that be what my postnatal depression is about??
