It’s one year, begins in july. I wouldn’t be able to take time off for the baby.
Is there no way you can have a baby, make ends meet and then begin the course when baby is older and can be sent to granny’s etc?

And my mom isn’t in the best of health now. So I can’t depend on her as a caretaker.
 
We all suffer from thinking we can manage our lives on our own.
We cannot.
We can muddle through and cajole ourselves into thinking we have a grip on everything…everything in control.
And then one day none of our plans seem to be viable.

This is when we turn back to God.

There is a hymn called “Hosea”
Here are the lyrics. Find a quiet place and read them. or listen to them online…

*Come back to me with all your heart,
don’t let fear keep us apart.
Trees do bend, tho’ straight and tall;
so must we to others’ call.

Long have I waited for your coming
home to me and living deeply our new life.

The wilderness will lead you
to your heart where I will speak.
Integrity and justice
with tenderness you shall know.

Long have I waited for your coming
home to me and living deeply our new life.

You shall sleep secure with peace;
faithfulness will be your joy.

Long have I waited for your coming
home to me and living deeply our new life. *

Peace again to you, my sister. Peace. And all shall be well.
 
And the clock is ticking for you to contact those resources instead of all of this back and forth on this forum. Be proactive and seek out help for you and your family instead of wallowing in this. in your situation, pregnant and with little kids, I would be following up on every available resource and charity in heartbeat. You say you are so overhelmed and busy with your kids but you apparently have plenty of time to write pithy replies on this forum.

If this sounds harsh, it’s meant to be. Get moving and seek help now.
 
Of course I would be in emotional pain. But I would be so busy with life, I would be able to distract myself.
This is simply not true.
Do not be misled.
Rachel’s Vineyard, as we have said.
Go to one of their meetings.
If not for your own healing, but to witness the pain of others who thought they could handle it.
Please seek their help.
I’m not throwing in the towel.
Still praying.
Peace.
 
Almost 14.
Ok, do you understand the different stages in terms of abortions and miscarriages? I don’t know about abortions, but 13weeks is usually the threshold where an evac is required. Just something else to consider.
 
At 14 weeks, abortion is complicated and quite horrific. I would rather not mention the details, because they are so horrible, but please do research this.

TSB4,
Please look at this link. It is all about your baby at 14 weeks gestation. Did you know he can suck his thumb by now? He already has little arms and legs, a belly and a head.
This is an excellent post. Just before this post appeared, I did a quick search to see what a 14-week baby would look like. Yes, it is fully formed and sucking its thumb. It can in no way be considered a “piece of tissue.”

What’s an evac?
 
How far gone were you with your first abortion?
When’s the appointment booked for?
 
What’s an evac?
It’s where they dilate the cervix and surgically remove the “contents” of the uterus. I have worked on gynae wards where they are performed for miscarriages, as the body doesn’t re absorb after a point and was horrified to find the word “products” on the hand over. Some of the girls have actually seen said “products” and it’s not the most pleasant experience. Most just get sent to the incinerator unless requested. However with an abortion, I’m not sure there will be an option to get the remains?
 
Another thought that just occurred to me is that I believe that Obamacare requires mental health coverage, and the Obamacare law went into effect on January 1, 2014. You said that you and the children were on Medicaid. It is quite possible that you could see a doctor about your panic attacks and it would be covered just like any other medical condition.

I’m not 100% positive that this is true, but it is worth looking into.
 
I want you to know that I am praying everyday for you and your family. Praying that your husband will have a change of heart and be open to adoption, that he will realize and really understand that you are not able to parent another child right now. I know he is worried about what people will think, but what kind of society have we become when abortion is a more socially-acceptable option than adoption? Please be well and take care of yourself.
 
I was 11 - 12 weeks. Found out at 10 weeks and a few days. My appointment is for Friday. 😦
Ok so you wouldn’t have needed an evac. It will be a different procedure this time around.
