how old r u n your gf?
Whichever decision you made would be the right choice for the both of you, but do consider keeping the baby, there is never a right time to have a baby and in this century its never shameful to marry when ya pregnant.

90% malaysian struggle raising a child, so its a common thing not restrict to just both of you (financially)

congratulation, and good luck

I tot you're struggling with a 1.5k payroll, chee sin mthly expenses 5k and you tell me you cannot squeeze in a baby???? you must be joking. With your salary you can have 2 children!

ts: I think you're just emotionally unprepared, talk to either parent which you think is easier and seek thier advise, mature ppl will be able to help you better as they know you guys situation. Sometimes no matter how ugly the scene you've to be man enuf to face the hardship.

We have considered it.. And we're willing to live with that.. We are getting engaged as soon as I can meet up with her mum. If indeed my wife is unable to conceive we are going to accept it. This is not a decision I make lightly. The doctor has told us the risk, they haven't poisoned us to make this decision. In fact they initially adviced us to keep the child as we seem like a stable couple. But after confering with the family planning therapist and crunching the numbers, we would go into serious debt if any complications arise.

You see, when you go to a family planning therapist, they will give you the raw facts. Not some perfect scenario where your child comes out beautiful and grand. They make allowances for possible complication. Of course they don't assume that the child will be born with every complication in the world but they consider common ailments.

You may think we're being negative but its a cruel world we live in and we must be prepared.

About our house... It is for our future. Me and my gf came from poor families and we were raised on a bare minimum. It was rough on us all and we swore we would never put a child through the suffering we had to endure. With a place to call home, our children will never be without a home and we will be better for it.

But today is the last day for our re-consideration. If anyone is serious about helping, I eagerly await you help.

Hmm. Thank you so much for that suggestion.. I mean no offense when I say this but a flat doesn't seem like a safe place to raise a child. It's unhygienic, tends to be over populated and heights aren't exactly safe for kids later in life when they are running around. Regardless I will try to speak with my GF on this option to see if we can accept raising a child in a flat. Thank you once again for your recommendation.

you're very paranoid or you're just giving tons of excuses to escape your own wrong doings. Many of us here are raised in kampungs or flats, and I dun see ppl dying yet. You mean you must be a millionaire then only you wanna have a child?

The earlier you have a first kid is safer, if you wait after 30 risk also start rising.

for those who supported TS's decision to abort, your are most concern about his financial stability when a child is born into the world.

And no, I'm not saying that everyone should marry and have a baby young since you are going to have one anyway. What I'm trying to is, TS's already has ONE in his fiancee's tummy, why kill it?

Life's always has its ups and downs and challenges. You can't just run away into hidings or take the easy way out when you face the down times.

The thing is this, there is no right or wrong decision, some of us may love children and ask TS to keep, some may not like children for whatever reason.

But most important is TS and wife, if they dun like children and asked to keep, it may be destructive to their marriage. Children will sap your relationship, strain on finance and take away whatever little romance you've in your marriage.
So TS have to be fully prepared and committed b4 having children.

But then of coz we duno what magic children can bring to you. Some who dislike children, but after having one of their own they pampered the kid into little monster.

Some who love kids or husband who kept bugging the wife to get a kid, but after having 2 kids the hubby try his best to stay outside, go happy hour after work, and only comes home after kids all asleep.

Ts you've to ask you and wife, are you guys commited? are you guys ready to the next phase in life, sadly you've nvr enjoyed the honeymood years but jump start your marriage with kids.

I'm 6 months pregnant and the journey is fun, exciting, sickening and overall very adventurous.
