I am unexpectedly pregnant with #4. My other three children are 7, 5 and 2. I can’t technically afford another baby but financially I know my husband and I would make it work. I don’t worry about the money. I worry about my mental health. I had a seriously bad case of post natal depression after #3 and I had almost no support. I’m so scared to go down that path again, it was the darkest time of my 34 years. I’m so sorry #4, I love you so much, but right now I need to love myself and your siblings more.
